Daily snapshot data starts accumulating once the scheduler runs — for now this is interpolated from the agency's first/last dates.

What is this? Some Nikon binoculars have fake-leather parts that may contain a chemical called DEHP. DEHP is a softener that can be harmful if too much gets into the body.

What's happening? The fake leather on these binoculars has too much DEHP. If a child licks the fake leather for a long time, they could get sick.

Does this affect me? This only affects people who own these Nikon binoculars with fake-leather parts.

What should I do? Stop children from licking the fake leather. Call Nikon’s customer service for help. Ask your pharmacist or doctor if you feel sick.
