Preparation

Charging the Battery

 About batteries that you can use with this unit

Supplied battery or dedicated optional batteries (DMW-BCF10E)

can be used with this camera.

It has been found that counterfeit battery packs which look very

similar to the genuine product are made available to purchase in

some markets. Some of these battery packs are not adequately

protected with internal protection to meet the requirements of

appropriate safety standards. There is a possibility that these

battery packs may lead to ﬁre or explosion. Please be advised

that we are not liable for any accident or failure occurring as

a result of use of a counterfeit battery pack. To ensure that

safe products are used we would recommend that a genuine

Panasonic battery pack is used.

• Use the dedicated charger and battery.

• The camera has a function for distinguishing batteries which

can be used safely. The dedicated battery supports this function.

The only batteries suitable for use with this unit are genuine

Panasonic products and batteries manufactured by other

companies and certiﬁed by Panasonic. (Batteries which do not

support this function cannot be used.) Panasonic cannot in any

way guarantee the quality, performance or safety of batteries

which have been manufactured by other companies and are not

genuine Panasonic products.

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

the battery before use.

• Charge the battery with the charger indoors.

• Charge the battery in a temperature between 10 oC to 35 oC. (The

battery temperature should also be the same.)
