When the number of files within a folder reaches 9999, a new folder will be created. File numbers will be assigned automatically starting with “0001”. • Files copied using [Copy] > [Selected images] or [Copy sound files] > [Selected files] are copied to the current folder, where they are assigned new file numbers in ascending order starting from the largest file number in memory. [Copy] > [All images] and [Copy sound files] > [Copy all files] copy all folders from the source medium; file names do not change but new folder numbers are assigned in ascending order starting from the largest folder number on the destination medium (c 56, 86). • Folders can hold up to 200 pictures; if a picture is taken when the current folder contains 200 pictures, a new folder will be created by adding one to the current folder number. If a picture is taken when the current folder is numbered 999 and contains 200 pictures or a picture numbered 9999, no further pictures can be taken until the medium is formatted (c 98) or a new memory card inserted. 104 Caring for the Camera To ensure continued enjoyment of this Nikon product, observe the following precautions when using or storing the device. j Handle the lens and all moving parts with care Do not apply force to the lens, lens cover, monitor, memory card slot, or battery chamber. These parts are easily damaged. Applying force to the lens cover could result in camera malfunction or damage to the lens. Should the monitor break, care should be taken to avoid injury caused by broken glass and to prevent the liquid crystal from the display touching the skin or entering the eyes or mouth. j Do not point the lens at strong light sources for extended periods Avoid pointing the lens at the sun or other strong light sources for extended periods when using or storing the camera. Intense light may cause deterioration of the CCD image sensor, producing a white blur effect in photographs. j Turn the product off before removing or disconnecting the power source Do not unplug the product or remove the batteries while the product is on, or while images are being recorded or deleted. Forcibly cutting power in these circumstances could result in loss of data or in damage to product memory or internal circuitry. To prevent an accidental interruption of power, avoid carrying the product from one place to another while an AC adapter is connected. j Keep dry The device will be damaged if immersed in water or subjected to high humidity. Technical Notes j Do not drop The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shock or vibration. j Keep away from strong magnetic fields Do not use or store this device in the vicinity of equipment that generates strong electromagnetic radiation or magnetic fields. Strong static charges or the magnetic fields produced by equipment such as radio transmitters could interfere with the monitor, damage data stored on the memory card, or affect the product’s internal circuitry. j Avoid sudden changes in temperature Sudden changes in temperature, such as occur when entering or leaving a heated building on a cold day, can cause condensation to form inside the device. To prevent condensation, place the device in a carrying case or a plastic bag before exposing it to sudden changes in temperature. 105 k Batteries • Check the battery level when taking the camera out and replace the batteries if necessary (c 16). If possible, carry spare batteries when taking pictures on important occasions. • Battery capacity tends to decrease on cold days. Be sure that the batteries are fresh before heading outside to take pictures in cold weather. Keep spare batteries in a warm place and exchange as necessary. Once warmed, a cold battery may recover some of its charge. • Dirt on the battery terminals can prevent the camera from functioning. • Used batteries are a valuable resource. Please recycle used batteries in accordance with local regulations.

Cleaning Avoid touching glass parts with your fingers. Remove dust or lint with a blower (typically a small device with a rubber bulb attached to one end that is pumped to produce a stream of air out the other end). To remove fingerprints or other stains Lens that cannot be removed with a blower, wipe the lens with a soft cloth, using a spiral motion that starts at the center of the lens and working toward to the edges. If this fails, clean the lens using a cloth lightly dampened with commercial lens cleaner. Technical Notes Remove dust or lint with a blower. To remove fingerprints and Monitor other stains, clean the monitor with a soft, dry cloth, being careful not to apply pressure. Use a blower to remove dust, dirt, or sand then wipe gently with a soft, dry cloth. After using the camera at the beach or seaside, wipe off any sand or salt with a dry cloth lightly Body dampened with fresh water, then dry thoroughly. Note that foreign matter inside the camera could cause damage not covered by the warranty.

Do not use alcohol, thinner, or other volatile chemicals. 106 Storage Turn the camera off when not in use. Check that the power-on lamp is off before putting the camera away. Remove the batteries if the camera will not be used for an extended period. Do not store the camera with naphtha or camphor moth balls or in locations that: • are next to equipment that produces strong electromagnetic fields, such as televisions or radios • are exposed to temperatures below –10°C (14°F) or above 50°C (122°F) • are poorly ventilated or subject to humidities of over 60% To prevent mold or mildew, take the camera out of storage at least once a month. Turn the camera on and release the shutter a few times before putting the camera away again. Technical Notes

k Notes on the Monitor • The monitor may contain a few pixels that are always lit or that do not light. This is a characteristic common to all TFT LCD displays, and does not indicate a malfunction. Images recorded using the product will not be affected. • When framing bright subjects, vertical comet-like streaks that whiten toward either end may appear in the display. This phenomenon, known as “smear,” does not appear in the final photograph and does not indicate a malfunction. Some smear may appear in movies. • Images in the monitor may be difficult to see under bright lighting. • The monitor is lit by an LED backlight. Should the monitor begin to dim or flicker, contact your Nikon service representative. 107 Error Messages The following table lists the error messages and other warnings displayed in the monitor, as well as the solutions for dealing with them.

In most cases, this phenomenon is caused by a strong external static charge. Turn the camera off, remove and replace the batteries, and then turn the camera on again. In the event of continued malfunction, contact your retailer or Nikon representative. Note that disconnecting the power source as described above may result in the loss of any data not recorded to internal memory or the memory card at the time the problem occurred. Data already recorded will not be affected. 117 Specifications Nikon COOLPIX L11/COOLPIX L10 Digital Camera
