In the U.S.A. and Canada, the AC adaptor must be connected to a 120 V AC power supply only.  
When connecting to an AC supply outside of the U.S.A. or Canada, use a plug adaptor to suit  
the AC outlet configuration.  
When connecting to a supply of greater than AC 125 V, ensure the cord you use is suited to the  
voltage of the AC supply and the rated current of the AC adaptor.  
Contact an electrical parts distributor for assistance in selecting a suitable AC plug adaptor or  
AC cord set.  
The power plug is the disconnecting device. Install this unit so that the power plug can be  
unplugged from the socket outlet immediately.

About Condensation (When  
the lens or the LCD monitor is  
fogged up)  
Condensation occurs when there is a change in  
temperature or humidity, such as when the unit  
is taken from outside or a cold room to a warm  
room. Please be careful, as it may cause the  
lens or LCD monitor to become soiled, moldy,  
or damaged.  
For the purposes of this  
owner’s manual  
SD Memory Card, SDHC Memory Card and  
SDXC Memory Card are referred to as the  
“SD card”.

Recording Mode:  
Function that can be used for Still Picture  
Recording Mode:  
When taking the unit to a place which has a  
different temperature, if the unit is accustomed  
to the room temperature of the destination for  
about one hour, condensation can be  
prevented. (When the difference in temperature  
is severe, place the unit in a plastic bag or the  
like, remove air from the bag, and seal the bag.)  
When condensation has occurred, remove the  
battery and/or the AC adapter and leave the  
unit like that for about one hour. When the unit  
becomes accustomed to the surrounding  
temperature, fogginess will disappear naturally.

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 would recommend that a genuine Panasonic battery pack is used.
