Dispose of unusable battery.

Batteries have a limited life.

Do not throw batteries into fire because it may cause an explosion.

Unusable batteries should be discarded in accordance with battery recycling laws. Call the RBRC hotline at 1-800-822-8837 for information.

Do not allow battery terminals to come into contact with metal objects (such as necklaces, hairpins etc.).

This can cause short circuiting or heat generation and you may be badly burned if you touch a battery.

AC adaptor

If you use the AC adaptor near a radio, the radio reception may be disturbed. Keep the AC adaptor 1 m (3.28 feet) or more away from radios.

When the AC adaptor is in use, it may generate whirring sounds. However, this is not a malfunction.

After use, be sure to disconnect the AC cable from the electrical outlet. (A maximum of about 0.5 W is used if you leave it connected.)

Keep the terminal of the AC adaptor clean.

Card

Do not leave the card where the temperature is high, where electromagnetic waves or static electricity are easily generated or exposed to direct sunlight.

Do not bend or drop the card.

The card may be damaged or the recorded content may be damaged or deleted.

Put the card in the card case or the storage bag after use and when storing or carrying the card.

Do not allow dirt, dust or water to get into the terminals on the back of the card and do not touch the terminals with your fingers.

About the recorded data

Recorded data may be damaged or lost if the camera breaks down due to inappropriate handling. Matsushita will not be liable for any damage suffered due to loss of recorded data.

About tripods

You can prevent jitter (camera shake) when the shutter speed is slow or you take a picture at close range if you use a commercially available tripod for cameras.

When using a tripod, make sure it is stable when the camera is attached to it.

You may not be able to remove the battery when using a tripod.

Read the operating instructions for the tripod.

About the strap

If you attach a heavy interchangeable lens (more than about 1 kg/35.3 oz) to the camera body, do not carry the camera by the strap. Hold the camera and the lens when carrying them.
