Notes on GPS Functions
bMap/location name data of this camera
Before using the GPS function, make sure to read “USER LICENSE AGREEMENT FOR MAP
DATA AND LOCATION NAME DATA” (F18) and agree to the terms.
• The maps and location name information (Point of Interest: POI) are as of April 2012.
The maps and location name information will not be updated.
• The details of geological formations are displayed simplistically according to the scale
of a map. The scale of a map and level of detail of the location information 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 (Point of Interest: POI) of the
People’s Republic of China (“China”) and the Republic of Korea are not provided for the
COOLPIX AW110.

systems of the airplane or the instruments of the hospital. When use of the camera is
prohibited or restricted during airplane takeoffs and landings or inside a hospital, end
log recording, set the Record GPS data to Off, and then turn off the camera.
• An individual may be identified from still pictures or movies that have been recorded
with location information.
Observe caution when you transfer still pictures or movies recorded with location
