pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radi-
ate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may
cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference
will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encour-
aged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
-- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
-- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
-- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is con-
nected.
-- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
FCC Warning: To assure continued FCC compliance, use only the provided shielded interface cable
with ferrite cores when connecting digital camera station to computer. Also, any unau-
thorized changes or modifications to this equipment could void the user’s authority to
operate.
Precautions
USE & LOCATION
• TO AVOID SHOCK HAZARD ... Your Digital Camera and power supply should not be exposed to
rain or moisture. Do not connect the power supply or operate your Digital Camera if it gets wet. Your
Digital Camera has been designed for outdoor use, however it is not designed to sustain direct
exposure to water, rain, sleet, snow, sand, dust, or a direct splashing from a pool or even a cup of
coffee. This action could permanently damage the internal parts of your Digital Camera. Do not
attempt to disassemble this unit. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Unplug your Digital
Camera from the power supply and have it serviced.
• DO NOT AIM YOUR DIGITAL CAMERA AT THE SUN OR OTHER BRIGHT OBJECTS.
• DO NOT EXPOSE YOUR DIGITAL CAMERA TO EXTENDED HIGH TEMPERATURE ... Such as,
in direct sunlight, inside a closed car, next to a heater, etc... This action could permanently damage
the internal parts of your Digital Camera.
• AVOID SUDDEN CHANGES IN TEMPERATURE ... If the unit is suddenly moved from a cold place
to a warm place, moisture may form inside the unit.
• DO NOT LEAVE YOUR DIGITAL CAMERA OR THE POWER SUPPLY TURNED ON WHEN NOT
IN USE.
• STORAGE OF YOUR DIGITAL CAMERA ... Store and handle your Digital Camera in a manner that
will not subject it to unnecessary movement (avoid shaking and striking). Your Digital Camera
contains a sensitive pick-up device which could be damaged by improper handling or storage.
CARE
• TO CLEAN YOUR DIGITAL CAMERA ... Do not use strong or abrasive detergents when cleaning
your Digital Camera body.
• TO PROTECT THE LENS ... Do not touch the surface of the lens with your hand. Use a commercial
Digital Camera lens solution and lens paper when cleaning the lens. Improper cleaning can scratch
the lens coating.
• TO PROTECT THE FINISH OF YOUR DIGITAL CAMERA ... Before handling your Digital Camera,
make sure your hands and face are free from any chemical products, such as suntan lotion, as it
may damage the finish.

Battery Pack Notes
Caution:
To avoid damage to the Battery Pack:
• Do not drop or jar the Battery Pack.
• Use the Battery Pack with specified units
only.
• Charge only with specified charger.
• The Battery can be charged within a

104° F (40° C).
• The Battery Pack may be warm after
charging or just after use. This is normal.
• Do not use an insufficiently charged or
worn out Battery Pack.
To insure longer Battery Pack life:
• While not in use, remove the Battery Pack
from the Digital Camera and store in a
dark, cool, dry place.
• Keep the Battery Pack terminals clean.
Safety precautions:
• Do not get the Battery Pack or AA alkaline
batteries near, or dispose of in fire.

• The useful operation time of the Battery
will gradually decrease after repeated use
and recharging. The Battery is no longer
serviceable if the operation time is very
short, even after a sufficient charge.
• Instead of the supplied Battery Pack, you
can also use AA type Ni-Cd (high density
type) or nickel-hydride batteries available
on the market.

Plug the AC Adaptor into an AC
outlet.
The POWER Lamp lights up.
• For emergency use you can install 2
Panasonic alkaline batteries. But, due to
power consumption and shorter operation
life of alkaline batteries compared to the
supplied rechargeable battery pack, it is
strongly recommended that only the
Optical Viewfinder (turn off the LCD
Viewfinder) be used to capture images
when using alkaline batteries.
• If you are not going to use the Digital
Camera for an extended period of time,
remove the Battery Pack from the Digital
Camera.

have a maximum of about 50 minutes* of
continuous playback(77°F/25°C).
Do not remove the Digital Camera while
charging is in progress.
