First Steps: Inserting and Removing Memory Cards
Inserting and Removing Memory Cards
The COOLPIX 900 records photographs on compact flash-memory cards.
Before you will be able to take photographs, you must insert a memory
card in the camera.
1. Turn the camera off
Cards can only be inserted in, and removed from,
the camera when the selector dial is set to OFF.
Caution: Inserting memory cards when the
power is on could render the card unusable.
2. Open the card-slot cover
If the camera is on a tripod, remove it from the
tripod before inserting or removing memory cards.
To insert a card, turn the camera upside down.
Then lift the card-slot cover up and flip it open.
3a. Insert the memory card, or…
Insert the card as shown below, sliding it in until it
is firmly in place at the back of the slot.
Caution: Be sure to insert the card as shown
in the illustration, with the connectors towards the
bottom of the slot and the label facing out. Insert-
ing the card upside-down or backwards could
result in damage to the camera or to the card.
3b. …remove the memory card
Push the card-release button until the card can be
removed by hand.
Caution: Memory cards may become hot
during use. Observe due caution when removing
