Cautions for Use

Always use a genuine Panasonic AC adaptor (DMW-AC5E; optional).

When using an AC adaptor, use the AC cable supplied with the AC adaptor.

Do not use any other AV cables except the supplied one.

Do not use any other USB connection cables except the supplied one.

Keep the camera as far away as possible from electromagnetic equipment (such as microwave ovens, TVs, video games etc.).

If you use the camera on top of or near a TV, the pictures and sound on the camera may be disrupted by electromagnetic wave radiation.

Do not use the camera near cell phones because doing so may result in noise adversely affecting the pictures and sound.

Recorded data may be damaged, or pictures may be distorted, by strong magnetic fields created by speakers or large motors.

Electromagnetic wave radiation generated by microprocessors may adversely affect the camera, disturbing the pictures and sound.

If the camera is adversely affected by electromagnetic equipment and stops functioning properly, turn the camera off and remove the battery or disconnect AC adaptor (DMW-AC5E; optional). Then reinsert the battery or reconnect AC adaptor and turn the camera on.

Do not use the camera near radio transmitters or high-voltage lines.

If you record near radio transmitters or high-voltage lines, the recorded pictures and sound may be adversely affected.
