Cautions for Use
•This camera has a waterproof/dustproof function equivalent to “IP68”. It is possible to take 
pictures in 5 m (16 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 a 
Panasonic’s Service Center to verify th at 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 (excluding Hand Strap).
For more detail, refer to “(Important) About the Waterproof/Dustproof and 
Anti-shock Performance of the Camera”  (P6).
