Care of the camera
Do not subject to strong vibration, shock, or pressure.
•
The lens, monitor, or external case may be damaged if used in the following conditions.
It may also malfunction or image may not be record if you:
–
Drop or hit the camera.
–
Press hard on the lens or the monitor.
The dust- and splash-proofing of this unit is not a guarantee of a full protection against the
intrusion of dust and water. Please note the following to optimise the dust-proof and
splash-proof performance:
–
Use a Panasonic interchangeable lens that supports the dust- and splash-proof design.
When you are using an interchangeable lens that does not support the dust-splash proofing
or are using the mount adaptor (DMW-MA1: optional), the dust-splash proofing of this unit is
disabled.
–
Use with the built-in flash closed.
–
Securely close each door part, socket cap and terminal cover of this unit.
–
When you attach/detach the lens or cap, or open/close the door, make sure to prevent sand,
dust, and water droplets from entering the interior of this unit.
–
If this unit is exposed to water or other liquids, wipe off the liquid with soft dry cloths after use.
Do not place your hands inside the mount of the digital camera body. Since the
sensor unit is a precision apparatus, it may cause a malfunction or damage.

About Condensation (When the lens, the viewfinder or monitor is fogged up)
•
Condensation occurs when the ambient temperature or humidity changes. Be careful of
condensation since it causes lens, viewfinder and monitor stains, fungus and camera
malfunction.
•
If condensation occurs, turn the camera off and leave it for about 2 hours. The fog will
disappear naturally when the temperature of the camera becomes close to the ambient
temperature.
