the scale of a map. The scale of a map and level of detail of the location data
vary depending on country and region.
•
If the latitude becomes higher, the horizontal and vertical scales displayed
on the monitor vary, therefore displayed geological formations differ from
the actual formations. Use the maps and location name information only as
a guide.
The detailed map data and location name information (Points of Interest:
POI) of the People’s Republic of China (“China”) and the Republic of Korea
are not provided for the COOLPIX S9700.

Declaration of Conformity
This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules and Industry Canada licence-
exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of this
device.
FCC/IC RF Exposure Statement
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any
other antenna or transmitter.
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are
associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however,
that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power wireless
devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range
while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by
heating tissue), exposure to low-level RF that does not produce heating effects
causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low-level RF
exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested
that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been
confirmed by additional research.

Exposure
The procedure for shooting images at the desired brightness (exposure) by
adjusting the shutter speed or aperture value is called “determine exposure”.
The sense of dynamism and amount of background defocus in images to be
shot vary depending on the combinations of shutter speed and aperture value
even if the exposure is the same.
Adjusting the Shutter Speed
In k and m modes, the range is from a maximum of 1/2000 to 8 seconds.
Faster 1/1000 s
Slower 1/30 s
Adjusting the Aperture Value
In l and m modes, the range is from f/3.7 to 8 (wide-angle position) and from
f/6.4 to 8 (telephoto zoom position).
Larger aperture (Small f-number)
f/3.7
Smaller aperture (Large f-number)
f/8
C Aperture Value (F-number) and Zoom
Large apertures (expressed by small f-numbers) let more light into the camera, and
small apertures (large f-numbers) let less light.
The aperture value of the zoom lens of this camera changes depending on the zoom
position. When zooming to the wide-angle position and telephoto zoom position,
the aperture values are f/3.7 and f/6.4, respectively.

B Notes About Shooting
• When zooming is performed after the exposure is set, exposure combinations or
aperture value may be changed.
• When the subject is too dark or too bright, it may not be possible to obtain the

C Auto with Red-eye Reduction/Red-eye Reduction
Pre-flashes are fired repeatedly at low intensity before the main flash, reducing the
red-eye effect. If the camera detects red-eye while saving an image, the affected area
is processed to reduce red-eye before the image is saved.
Note the following when shooting:
• Because pre-flashes are fired, there is a slight lag between when the shutter-release
button is pressed and when the image is shot.
• More time than usual is required to save images.
• Red-eye reduction may not produce the desired results in all situations.
• In some rare cases, red-eye reduction may be applied unnecessarily to other areas
of the image. In these cases, select another flash mode and take the image again.

B Notes About Skin Softening
• It may take more time than usual to save images after shooting.
• Under some shooting conditions, the desired skin softening results may not be
achieved, and skin softening may be applied to areas of the image where there are
no faces.
Subjects Not Suitable for Autofocus
The camera may not focus as expected in the following situations. In some rare
cases, the subject may not be in focus despite the fact that the focus area or the
focus indicator glows green:
•
•
Subject is very dark
Objects of sharply differing brightness are included in the scene (e.g. the sun
behind the subject makes that subject appear very dark)
No contrast between the subject and surroundings (e.g. a portrait subject
wearing a white shirt is standing in front of a white wall)
Several objects are at different distances from the camera (e.g. the subject is
inside a cage)
Subjects with repeating patterns (window blinds, buildings with multiple
rows of similarly shaped windows, etc.)
Subject is moving rapidly

• The maximum movie length for a single movie is displayed on the shooting screen.
• Recording may end before either limit is reached if camera temperature becomes
elevated.
• The actual movie length may vary depending on the movie content, subject
movement, or type of memory card.
B Notes About Saving Images and Recording Movies
The indicator showing the number of exposures remaining or the indicator showing
the maximum movie length flashes while images are being saved or while a movie is
being recorded. Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover or
remove the battery or memory card while an indicator is flashing. Doing this could
result in loss of data, or in damage to the camera or the memory card.
B Notes About Movie Recording
• Memory cards with an SD Speed Class rating of 6 or faster are recommended when
cards with a lower Speed Class rating are used.
• When using the camera’s internal memory, saving movies may take some time.
• Depending on the file size of a movie, it may not be possible to save the movie in
the internal memory or copy it from a memory card to the internal memory.
• There may be some degradation in image quality when digital zoom is used.
• The sounds of zoom control operation, zoom, autofocus lens drive movement,
vibration reduction, and aperture operation when brightness changes may be
recorded.
• The following phenomena may be seen in the monitor while recording movies.
These phenomena are saved in the recorded movies.
- Banding may occur in images under fluorescent, mercury-vapor, or sodium-
vapor lighting.
- Subjects that move quickly from one side of the frame to the other, such as a
moving train or car, may appear skewed.
- The entire movie image may be skewed when the camera is panned.
- Lighting or other bright areas may leave residual images when the camera is
moved.
• Depending on the distance to the subject or the amount of zoom applied, subjects
with repeating patterns (fabrics, lattice windows, etc.) may have colored stripes
(interference patterns, moire, etc.) in them during movie recording and playback.
This occurs when the pattern in the subject and the layout of the image sensor
interfere with each other; it is not a malfunction.

• The camera may become warm when shooting movies for an extended period of
time or when the camera is used in a hot area.
• If the inside of the camera becomes extremely hot when recording movies, the
camera will automatically stop recording.
The amount of time remaining until the camera stops recording (B10s) is
displayed.
After the camera stops recording, it turns itself off.
Leave the camera off until the inside of the camera has cooled.
B Notes About Autofocus
1. Set AF area mode to Center and Autofocus mode to Single AF (default
setting) in the movie menu before starting movie recording.
2. Frame another subject—positioned at the same distance from the camera as the
intended subject—in the center of the frame, press the b (e movie-record)
button to start recording, and then modify the composition.

B Notes About Location Data Functions
• It takes a few minutes to obtain location data when positioning is performed for
the first time or in a situation where positioning cannot be performed for a long
period of time, or just after the battery is replaced.
• Positions of the positioning satellites change constantly.
You may not be able to determine the position or it may take some time
depending on your location and the time.
To use the location data functions, use the camera in an open-air area with few
obstacles in the sky.
• The following locations which block or reflect signals may result in failed or
inaccurate positioning.
- Inside buildings or underground locations
- Between high-rise buildings
- Under overpasses
- Inside tunnels
- Near high-voltage electrical power lines
- Between clusters of trees
• Using a mobile phone of 1.5 GHz band near this camera may disrupt positioning.
• When carrying this camera around while positioning, do not place it in a metal bag.
Positioning cannot be performed if the camera is covered with metal materials.
• When there is a significant difference in the signals from the positioning satellites,
there could be a deviation of up to several hundred meters.
• Be aware of your surroundings when positioning.
• The shooting date and time that is displayed when playing back images is
determined by the camera’s internal clock at the time of shooting.
The time obtained by the location data and recorded on images will not be
displayed on the camera.
• The location data for the first frame will be recorded on a series of images shot
using continuous shooting.
B Battery Drain While Recording Location Data and Log Recording
• When Record location data is set to On, record location data functions will
continue to operate at the specified interval for approximately 6 hours even after
the camera is turned off. Also, record location data functions and log recording

Caring for the Product
The Camera
To ensure continued enjoyment of this Nikon product, observe the precautions
when using or storing the device.
B Do Not Drop
The product may malfunction if subjected to strong shock or vibration.
B 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.
B Keep Dry
The device will be damaged if immersed in water or subjected to high humidity.
B Avoid Sudden Changes in Temperature
Sudden changes in temperature, such as 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.
B 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 charge or the magnetic
fields produced by equipment such as radio transmitters could interfere with the
monitor, damage data saved on the memory card, or affect the product’s internal
circuitry.
B 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
image sensor, producing a white blur effect in photographs.
B Turn the Product off Before Removing or Disconnecting the Power
Source
Do not remove the battery while the product is on, or while images are being saved
or deleted. Forcibly cutting power in these circumstances could result in loss of data
or in damage to product memory or internal circuitry.

B Notes About the Monitor
• Monitors and electronic viewfinders are constructed with extremely high precision;
at least 99.99% of pixels are effective, with no more than 0.01% being missing or
defective. Hence while these displays may contain pixels that are always lit (white,
red, blue, or green) or always off (black), this is not a malfunction and has no effect
on images recorded with the device.
• Due to the general characteristics of OLED monitors, prolonged or repeated
display of the same screen or image may result in screen burn. Screen burn can be
recognized by decreased brightness in portions of the monitor or mottled display.
In some cases, screen burn may become permanent. However, images are in no
way affected by screen burn.
To prevent screen burn, do not set monitor brightness higher than necessary and
do not display the same screen or image for an extended period of time.
• 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-authorized service representative.
The Battery
use.
•
Check the battery level before using the camera and replace or charge the
battery if necessary. Do not continue charging once the battery is fully
charged as this will result in reduced battery performance. Whenever
possible, carry a fully charged spare battery when taking images on
important occasions.
•
•
•
Do not use the battery at ambient temperatures below 0°C (32°F) or above
40°C (104°F).
Charge the battery indoors with an ambient temperature of 5°C to 35°C
(41°F to 95°F) before use.
When charging the battery inserted into this camera using the charging AC
adapter or a computer, the battery is not charged at battery temperatures
below 0°C (32°F) or above 45°C (113°F).
•
•
Note that the battery may become hot during use; wait for the battery to
cool before charging. Failure to observe these precautions could damage
the battery, impair its performance, or prevent it from charging normally.
On cold days, the capacity of batteries tends to decrease. If an exhausted
battery is used at a low temperature, the camera will not turn on. Be sure
that the battery is fully charged before heading outside to take images 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.
Should the battery terminals become dirty, wipe them off with a clean, dry
cloth before use.

•
•
If the battery will not be used for some time, insert it in the camera and
completely exhaust it before removing it for storage. The battery should be
stored in a cool location with an ambient temperature of 15°C to 25°C (59°F
to 77°F). Do not store the battery in hot or extremely cold locations.
Always remove the battery from the camera or optional battery charger
when it is not being used. When inserted, minute amounts of current are
drawn from the battery even when not in use. This may result in excessive
draining of the battery and complete loss of function. Turning the camera
on or off while the battery is exhausted can result in reduced battery life.
Recharge the battery at least once every six months and completely exhaust
it before returning it to storage.
•
•
After removing the battery from the camera or optional battery charger, put
the battery in a plastic bag, etc. to insulate the terminal and store it in a cool
place.
•
•
A marked drop in the time a fully-charged battery retains its charge, when
used at room temperature, indicates that the battery needs to be replaced.
Purchase a new EN-EL12 battery.
Replace the battery when it no longer holds a charge. Used batteries are a
valuable resource. Please recycle used batteries in accordance with local
regulations.
Charging AC Adapter
use.
•
•
•
The Charging AC Adapter EH-71P is for use only with compatible devices. Do
not use with another make or model of device.
Do not use a USB cable other than the UC-E21. Using a USB cable other than
the UC-E21 could result in overheating, fire or electric shock.
Do not, under any circumstances, use another make or model of AC adapter
other than Charging AC Adapter EH-71P, and do not use a commercially
available USB-AC adapter or a battery charger for a mobile phone. Failure to
observe this precaution could result in overheating or in damage to the
camera.
•
The EH-71P is compatible with AC 100-240 V, 50/60 Hz electrical outlets.
When using in other countries, use a plug adapter (available commercially)
as necessary. For more information about plug adapters, consult your travel
agency.

Memory Cards
•
Use only Secure Digital memory cards. See “Approved Memory Cards”
•
Observe the precautions noted in the documentation included with your
memory card.
•
•
•
Do not affix labels or stickers to the memory card.
Do not format the memory card using a computer.
The first time you insert a memory card that has been used in another
device into this camera, be sure to format it with this camera. We
recommend formatting new memory cards with this camera before using
them with this camera.
•
•
Note that formatting a memory card permanently deletes all images
and other data on the memory card. If there is data saved on the memory
card that you wish to keep, copy that data to a computer before formatting.
If the message Card is not formatted. Format card? is displayed when
the camera is turned on, the memory card must be formatted. If there is data
on the memory card that you do not want to delete, select No and press the
kbutton. Copy that data to a computer before formatting. To format the
memory card, select Yes.
•
Observe the following precautions while formatting the memory card,
saving and deleting images, and copying images to a computer, otherwise
data or the memory card itself may be damaged.
- Do not open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover or remove the
memory card or battery.
- Do not turn off the camera.
- Do not disconnect the AC adapter.
