BFormatting Internal Memory and Memory Cards

Formatting the internal memory or memory cards permanently deletes all data. Be sure to transfer important pictures to a computer before formatting.

Do not turn the camera off, disconnect the AC adapter, or open the battery-chamber/memory card slot cover during formatting.

The first time you insert the memory cards used in other devices into the COOLPIX S510, be sure to format them using this camera.
