GoPro HERO11 Black User Manual Important Messages

Problems are rare, but your GoPro will let you know if anything comes up. Here are some of the messages you might see.

CAMERA IS TOO HOT

The Temperature icon appears on the touch screen if your camera becomes too hot and needs to cool down. Your camera was designed to recognize when it’s at risk of overheating and will shut down when needed. Simply let it sit and cool before using it again.

Heads Up: The operating ambient temperature range of your HERO11 Black is 14° F ~ 95° F (-10° C ~ 35° C) with a charging temperature of 32° F ~ 95° F (0° C ~ 35° C). High temperatures will cause your camera to use more power and drain the battery faster.

📘

PRO TIP: Shooting video at a high resolution and frame rate will also cause your camera to heat up faster, especially in hot environments. Try switching to a lower resolution and frame rate to lower the risk of overheating your GoPro.

SD CARD ERROR

Your GoPro can detect a variety of problems with your SD card. Problems can be due to, but not limited to, electrostatic discharge. Restart your camera if this occurs. It will automatically try to repair any damaged files and restore your camera back to full function.

REPAIRING YOUR FILE

Your GoPro will automatically try to fix damaged files. Files can be damaged if your camera loses power while recording or if there’s a problem saving the file. The File Repair icon will appear on the touch screen when a repair is in progress. Your camera will let you know when it’s finished and if the file was fixed.

MEMORY CARD FULL

Your camera will let you know when your SD card is full. You’ll need to move or delete some files if you want to keep recording.

SD CARD RATING

Your camera needs an SD card rated V30, UHS-3, or higher to operate at its best. It will let you know if your card is rated below V30/UHS-3 or if your card has degraded over time and can no longer perform up to its standards.

BATTERY LOW, POWERING OFF

A low-battery message will appear on the touch screen when the battery charge drops below 10%. If the charge runs out while recording video, your camera will stop recording, save the video, and turn itself off.
