About batteries that you can use with this unit
It has been found that counterfeit battery packs which look very similar to the genuine
products are made available to purchase in some markets. Some of these battery
packs 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 recommend that a genuine Panasonic battery pack is used.
Use the dedicated charger and battery.
The camera has a function for distinguishing batteries which can be used
safely. The dedicated battery supports this function. The only batteries
suitable for use with this unit are genuine Panasonic products and batteries
manufactured by other companies and certified by Panasonic. (Batteries which
do not support this function cannot be used). Panasonic cannot in any way
guarantee the quality, performance or safety of batteries which have been
manufactured by other companies and are not genuine Panasonic products.
