Preparations
Before use
■
Camera handling
●
Keep the camera away from excessive vibration, force, or pressure.
●
The camera is not dust resistant, splash resistant, or waterproof.
Avoid using the camera in places with excessive dust or sand, or where
water can come into contact with the camera.
●
Do not allow camera to come into contact with pesticides or volatile
substances (can cause surface damage or coating to peel).
■
Condensation (When the lens, the monitor or the viewfinder is fogged up)
●
Condensation may occur when the camera is exposed to sudden changes
of temperature or humidity. Avoid these conditions, which may make the
lens, the monitor or the viewfinder dirty, cause mould, or damage the
camera.
●
If condensation does occur, turn off the camera and wait about two hours
before using it. Once the camera adjusts to the surrounding temperature,
the fogging will clear naturally.
■
Caring for your camera
●
Before cleaning the camera, remove the battery or the DC coupler (DMW-
DCC11: optional), or disconnect the power plug from the outlet.
●
Do not press the monitor with excessive force.
●
Do not press the lens with excessive force.
●
Do not keep rubber or plastic products in contact with the camera for a long
period of time.
●
Do not use solvents such as benzine, thinner, alcohol, kitchen detergents,
etc., to clean the camera, since it may deteriorate the external case or the
coating may peel off.
●
Do not leave the camera with the lens facing the sun, as rays of light from
the sun may cause it to malfunction.
●
Do not extend the supplied cord or cable.
●
While the camera is accessing the card (for an operation such as picture
writing, reading, deletion, or formatting), do not turn off the camera or
remove the battery, card, AC adaptor (DMW-AC10E: optional) or DC
coupler (DMW-DCC11: optional).
●
The data on the card may be damaged or lost due to electromagnetic
waves, static electricity or breakdown of the camera or the card. We
recommend storing important data on a PC etc.
●
Do not format the card on your PC or other equipment. Format it on the
camera only to ensure proper operation.
