• Do not press the lens with excessive force.

• Do not spray the camera with insecticides or volatile chemicals.

• Do not keep rubber or plastic products in contact with the camera for a long

period of time.

• Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, alcohol, kitchen detergents, etc., to

clean the camera, since it may deteriorate the external case or the coating may

peel off.

• Do not leave the camera with the lens facing the sun, as rays of light from the sun

may cause it to malfunction.

• Always use the supplied cords and cables.

• Do not extend the cords or the cables.

• During access (image writing, reading and deleting, formatting etc.), do not turn

this unit off, remove the battery, card or disconnect the AC adaptor. Furthermore,

• Do not format the card on your PC or other equipment. Format it on the camera only to

ensure proper operation.

• The battery is not charged when the camera is shipped. Charge the battery before

use.

• The battery is a rechargeable lithium ion battery. If the temperature is too high or

too low, the operating time of the battery will become shorter.

• The battery becomes warm after using and during and after charging. The camera also

becomes warm during use. This is not a malfunction.

• Do not leave any metal items (such as clips) near the contact areas of the power

plug or near the batteries.

• Store the battery in a cool and dry place with a relatively stable temperature:

[Recommended temperature: 15 oC to 25 oC (59 oF to 77 oF), Recommended

humidity: 40%RH to 60%RH]

•Do not store the battery for a long time while fully charged. When storing the

battery for a long period of time, we recommend charging it once a year. Remove the

battery from the camera and store it again after it has completely discharged.

(ENG) DVQX1493

Care of the camera

Do not subject to strong vibration, shock, or pressure.

• The lens, monitor, or external case may be damaged if used in the following conditions.

It may also malfunction or image may not be recorded if you:

– Drop or hit the camera.

– Press hard on the lens or the monitor.

This camera is not dust/drip/water proof.

Avoid using the camera in places with a lot of dust, water, sand, etc.

• Liquid, sand and other foreign material may get into the space around the lens, buttons,

etc. Be particularly careful since it may not just cause malfunctions, but it may also

become irreparable.

– Places with a lot of sand or dust.

– Places where water can come into contact with this unit, such as when using it on a

rainy day or at the beach.

Do not place your hands inside the mount of the digital camera body. Since

the sensor unit is a precision apparatus, it may cause a malfunction or

damage.

If sand, dust, or liquids such as water droplets adhere to the monitor, wipe them off

with a dry soft cloth.

– Not doing so may cause the monitor to respond incorrectly to touch operations.

Keep objects sensitive to magnetic fields (credit cards, etc.) away from the

camera. Otherwise, magnetic fields may damage their data and make them

unusable.

∫About Condensation (When the lens or monitor is fogged up)

• Condensation occurs when the ambient temperature or humidity changes. Be careful of

condensation since it causes lens and monitor stains, fungus and camera malfunction.

• If condensation occurs, turn the camera off and leave it for about 2 hours. The fog will

disappear naturally when the temperature of the camera becomes close to the ambient

temperature.

For smoother recording, we recommend updating the firmware of the

interchangeable lens to the latest version.

• To view the latest information on the firmware or to download the firmware, visit

the support site below:

http://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/dsc/

(This Site is English only.)

• To check the firmware version of the interchangeable lens, attach it to the camera body

and select [Version Disp.] in the [Setup] menu.
