Cautions for Use
•This camera has a waterproof/dustproof function equivalent to “IP68”. It is possible to take pictures 
in 7 m (23 feet) depth for 60 minutes.¢ 
(This means that the camera can be used underwater for specified time in specified pressure in 
accordance with the handling method established by Panasonic.)
•The camera has cleared a drop test from a height of 1.5 m (5 feet) onto 3 cm (0.1 feet) thick 
plywood, which is compliant with “MIL-STD 810F Method 516.5-Shock”.¢
¢ This does not guarantee no destruction, no malfunction, or waterproofing in all conditions.
•Waterproofing is not guaranteed if the unit is subject to an impact as a result of being hit or dropped 
etc. If an impact to the camera occurs, it should be inspected (subject to a fee) by Panasonic to 
verify that the waterproofing is still effective.
•Using the camera in environments where splashing with hot spring water, oil or alcohol is likely to 
occur may cause the water/dust resistance and impact resistance of the camera to deteriorate.
•Malfunction caused by exposure to water due to mishandling by the customer will not be covered by 
the warranty.
•Supplied accessories are not waterproof.
For more detail, refer to “(Important) About the Waterproof/Dustproof and Anti-shock 
Performance of the Camera”  (P8).

•It may cause injury to the skin if you directly touch the metal parts of the unit in places where 
temperature is very low [environments under 0oC (32  oF), such as ski resorts or places at 
high altitude] for a long period of time.
Use gloves or similar when using it for long periods.
•The performance of the battery (number of recordable pictures/operating time) may decrease 
temporarily when using in a temperature between  j10 oC and 0 oC (14  oF and 32  oF) (cold places 
such as ski resorts or places at high altitude).
•The battery cannot be recharged in a temperature less than 0 oC (32  oF). (The [CHARGE] indicator 
blinks when the battery cannot be recharged.)
•If the camera gets very cold in cold places such as ski resorts or places at high altitude, performance 
of the LCD monitor may temporarily drop immediately after turning this unit on, e.g. the picture on 
the LCD monitor being slightly darker than usual or  ghost images appearing. In cold environments, 
keep the camera warm during use by keeping it inside your cold-weather gear or clothes. The 
performance will resume as normal when the internal temperature rises.
•If the camera is used in cold places such as ski resorts or places at high altitude with snow or water 
droplets adhered to the camera, some parts of the camera may become hard to move or the sound 
may become dim with snow or water droplets freezing in the gap of the zoom button, the camera 
[ON/OFF] button, speakers, and microphone. This is not a malfunction.
When using in a cold climate or at low temperatures

camera may become hard to move when the zoom button or the camera [ON/OFF] 
button gets frozen etc., or the side door may become hard to open in cold places such 
as ski resorts or places at high altitude where the temperature may drop very rapidly.
•
When the camera is used in a cold places such as ski resorts or places at high altitude, keep the 
camera warm by placing it in a warm place such as inside your cold protection gear or clothing.

Cleaning
About the LCD monitor
Extremely high precision technology is employed to produce the LCD monitor screen. 
However, there may be some dark or bright spot s (red, blue, or green) on the screen. This is 
not a malfunction. The LCD monitor screen has more than 99.99% effective pixels with a 
mere 0.01% of the pixels inactive or always  lit. The spots will not be recorded on pictures on 
the built-in memory or a card.

•Do not press the lens with excessive force.
•Do not leave the camera with the lens facing the sun, as rays of light from the sun may cause it to 
malfunction. Also, be careful when placing the camera outside or near a window.
•If there is water or dirt on the lens, wipe it off with dry soft cloth before taking a picture.
•A sound might be muffled or warped when there is water on the microphone or the speaker. Wipe 
the residues after letting the water drip out from the microphone and speaker by tipping the camera 
downward, and use it after letting it dry for a while.
•Do not poke the holes of microphone and speaker with sharp points. (It may damage the waterproof 
sheet inside, which may damage the waterproof performance.)
The battery is a rechargeable lithium ion battery. Its ability to generate power comes 
from the chemical reaction that takes place inside it. This reaction is susceptible to the 
surrounding temperature and humidity. If the temperature is too high or too low, the 
operating time of the battery will become shorter.
Always remove the battery after use.
•
Place the removed battery in a plastic bag, and store or carry away from metallic objects (clips, etc.).
If you drop the battery accidentally, check to see if the body of the battery and the 
terminals are damaged.
•
Inserting a damaged battery in the camera will damage the camera.
Bring charged spare batteries when going out.
•Be aware that the operating time of the battery becomes shorter in cold places such as ski resorts or 
places at high altitude.
•When you travel, do not forget to bring the battery charger (supplied) so that you can charge the 
battery in the country that you are traveling in.
Dispose of unusable battery.
•The battery has a limited life.•Do not throw the battery into fire because it may cause an explosion.•The unusable battery 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.
