Cautions for Use

Optimal use of the camera

Take care not to drop or knock the unit or put a lot of pressure on it.

• Do not leave the unit in your pants pocket when you sit down or forcefully insert it into a full bag etc.

• Take care not to drop or knock the bag that you inserted the unit in as it may strongly shock the unit.

A strong shock to the unit may break the lens, screen or outer case and cause the unit to malfunction.

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-AC5; optional). Then reinsert the battery or reconnect AC adaptor and turn the camera on.
