Usage cautions and notes

Memory cards
●
To prevent damage to cards and data
• Avoid high temperatures, direct sunlight, electromagnetic waves, and static electricity.
• Do not bend, drop, or expose to strong impacts.
• Do not touch connectors on reverse of card or allow them to become dirty or wet.
●
When disposing of/transferring memory cards
• If using the ‘format’ or ‘delete’ functions on your camera or computer, this only changes the file
management information, and does not completely delete the data from within the memory card.
When disposing of or transferring your memory cards, we recommend physically destroying the
memory card itself, or using commercially available computer data erasing software to completely
delete the data from the card. Data within memory cards should be managed responsibly.
LCD Monitor
●
Do not press hard on the LCD monitor. This may cause uneven display and damage the monitor.
●
In cold climates or other situations when the camera becomes cold, the LCD monitor may be slightly
less responsive than normal immediately after startup. Normal brightness will return once the
internal components have warmed up.
Personal Information
If names or birthdays are set in [BABY] Mode or in the [FACE RECOG.] function,
personal information will be included in the camera and the pictures that have been taken.

Panasonic will not be liable for any damage that occurs, direct or indirect, as a result of the
alteration or loss of data containing personal information.
