Care of the camera
• Do not apply strong shock or vibration by dropping or knocking the camera. Also,
do not apply strong pressure to the camera.
– Waterproof performance may be impaired.
– The lens or the monitor may get damaged.
If the monitor should get damaged, take care to avoid injury caused by the fragments
of broken glass and other damaged components.
– It may cause malfunction in the performance or the function.
• After the camera is used underwater, speaker and microphone performance may
be temporarily degraded, so motion pictures may be recorded or played back with
weak audio.
– After underwater use, perform steps
1 through 4 in “Caring of the camera after using
it underwater” on P15.
∫ When inner side of the viewfinder or monitor is fogged (condensation)
It is not a malfunction or failure of the camera. It may be caused by the
environment in which the camera is used.
What to do when inner side is fogged
• Turn off the camera and open the side door in a place with constant ambient
temperature, away from high temperatures, humidity, sand and dust. The fog will
disappear naturally in approximately 2 hours with the side door open when the
temperature of the camera gets close to the ambient temperature.
• Contact Panasonic if the fogging does not disappear.
Conditions in which inner side may be fogged
Condensation may occur and cause the inner side of the lens, viewfinder, and
monitor to fog up when the camera is used under conditions with drastic
temperature changes or high humidity levels, such as the following:
• When the camera is used underwater suddenly after being on a hot beach etc.
• When the camera is moved to a warm area from a cold area, such as at a ski
resort or at high altitude
• When the side door is opened in a high-humidity environment
Please be sure to read “(Important) About the Waterproof/Dustproof and
Anti-shock Performance of the Camera” (P11) before using this unit underwater
to prevent the unit from being mishandled, which may cause water to seep in.
If you shake the camera while it is turned off, a rattling sound will be heard. This
is the sound of the lens moving and not a malfunction.
