∫Indemnity about recorded

content

Panasonic does not accept any responsibility

for damages directly or indirectly due to any

type of problems that result in loss of recording

or edited content, and does not guarantee any

content if recording or editing does not work

properly. Likewise, the above also applies in a

case where any type of repair is made to the

unit (including any other non-built-in memory

related component).

∫About Condensation (When

the lens or the LCD monitor is

fogged up)

Condensation occurs when there is a change in

temperature or humidity, such as when the unit

is taken from outside or a cold room to a warm

room. Please be careful, as it may cause the

lens or LCD monitor to become soiled, moldy,

or damaged.

When taking the unit to a place which has a

different temperature, if the unit is accustomed

to the room temperature of the destination for

about one hour, condensation can be

prevented. (When the difference in temperature

is severe, place the unit in a plastic bag or the

like, remove air from the bag, and seal the bag.)

When condensation has occurred, remove the

battery and/or the AC adapter and leave the

unit like that for about one hour. When the unit

becomes accustomed to the surrounding

temperature, fogginess will disappear naturally.

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.

Removing the battery

Be sure to hold down the power button until the status

indicator goes off. Then remove the battery while

supporting the unit to prevent it from dropping.
