Before Use

(Important) About the waterproof/dustproof and

anti-shock performance of the camera

•Please observe the following precautions, and avoid using this camera in any situation where

the camera is subject to high water pressure. This camera’s waterproof/dustproof rating

complies with the “IPX8” and “IP5X” ratings. Provided the care and maintenance guidelines

described in this document are strictly followed, this camera can operate underwater, to a depth

not exceeding 3 m (10 feet) for a time not exceeding 60 minutes.

¢1

This camera also complies

with “MIL-STD 810F (Method 516.5-Shock).

¢2

The camera has cleared a drop test from a

height of 1.5 m (5 feet) onto 5 cm (0.17 feet) thick plywood. In most cases this camera should

not sustain any damage if dropped from a height not exceeding 1.5 m (5 feet).

•Supplied accessories are not waterproof.

¢1 This means that the camera can be used underwater for specified time in specified pressure

in accordance with the handling method established by Panasonic. This does not guarantee

no destruction, no malfunction, or waterproofing in all conditions.

¢2 This does not guarantee no destruction, no malfunction, or waterproofing in all conditions.

Observe the following precautions and avoid using under water pressure exceeding the

guaranteed performance, and in an environment with excessive dust or sand.

Waterproofing is not guaranteed if the unit is subject to an impact as a result of being hit or

dropped etc.

When an impact is applied to the camera, it is recommended to consult Panasonic’s

Service Center and perform a checkup (subject to a fee) to see if the waterproofing has

been retained properly.

Any malfunction caused by customer misuse, or mishandling will not be covered by the warranty.

∫ Handling of the camera

•

Do not leave the camera under low temperature in the cold climate, or where it has high temperature

above 40

o

C

(104 oF)

(especially where strong sunlight is shining, inside a car under the sun, close

to a heater, in the ship, beach, etc.) for long period of time. (Waterproof performance will degrade)

•Do not open or close the card/battery door or terminal cover close to the water at the sea, lake,

river or with wet hands.

•Waterproof function of the camera is for sea water and fresh water only.

∫ Confirm that there is no foreign object

•

In the areas adjacent to location B, please be sure that no droplets of water are present before

opening the battery door.

•Before closing the card/battery door or terminal cover, confirm that there are no foreign objects

(hair, lint, sand, dust, fluid, etc.) on the part (B and C) colored black in the figure. When the

camera is used underwater with foreign objects clamped on the card/battery door or the

terminal cover, water may leak in, causing a malfunction.

•Wipe it off with a dry soft cloth if there is any liquid.

•If there is any foreign object, remove it with attached brush.

•

If there is any crack or deformation in the area colored black in the figure, contact Panasonic’s Service Center.

•Keep the Brush out of reach of children to prevent swallowing.

VQT1Z45

Before Use

∫ Securely close the SD card/battery door and terminal cover

∫ Using the camera underwater

•

This camera can be used under water to a depth not exceeding 3 m (10 feet), where the water

temperature is between 0

o

C

to 40

o

C (32

o

F to 104

o

F) and not longer than 60 minutes continuously.

•If there is water or dirt on the camera, use it after wiping it off with a dry soft cloth and dried in a

well ventilated area.

•Do not open or close the card/battery door or terminal cover.

•Do not apply shock to the camera underwater. (Waterproof performance may not be

maintained, and there is a chance of water leak)

•Do not dive into the water holding the camera. Do not use the camera at the location where the

water will splash strongly, such as rapid flow or waterfall. (Strong water pressure may be

applied, and it may cause malfunction)

•The camera will sink in the water. Take care not to drop the camera and lose it underwater by

securely placing the hand strap around your wrist or similar measure.

•

Do not use in water that exceeds 40

o

C (104

o

F) such as in baths, hot tubs, spas and hot springs.

•When the camera is splashed with detergent, soap, hot spring, bath additive, sun oil, sun

screen, chemical, etc., wipe it off immediately.

•Card and battery are not waterproof. Do not handle with a wet hand. Also, do not insert wet

card or battery into the camera.

∫ Caring of the camera after using it underwater

∫ Replacing the waterproof seal

•

The integrity of the waterproof seals may decrease after about 1 year, with use and age. To

avoid permanently damaging the camera the seals should be replaced once each year. Please

contact Panasonic’s Service Center for related costs and other information.

A Red part

•To prevent water leakage please check very

carefully that no foreign object such as sand,

hair, dust or fluid is present anywhere within

the area of the door seal and door. Close the

door by pressing it firmly until it clicks. Confirm

that the “red” area on the lock tab is not visible.

•After all underwater use, dry the camera thoroughly,

as quickly as possible using a lint free cloth. This must

be done within 60 minutes of use, or the waterproof

seals may be damaged.

•If the camera was used in salt water the camera must

be thoroughly rinsed and cleansed as quickly as

possible. It’s recommended that it is first rinsed with

fresh water, then submersed in fresh water in a

shallow container for about 10 minutes. When the

camera is removed, thoroughly dry it.

•Droplets of water may collect in the area around the battery door. Before opening the door

make sure this area is water-free.

•This camera has a water drain that allows water that has accumulated under the plastic trim to

drain. This may continue for up to 10 minutes, even after the camera is dried. You can place the

camera in a vertical position on a dry cloth during this time.

•If the zoom lever or mode dial does not move smoothly, it may be caused by the adhesion of

foreign objects. It may cause malfunctions, such as locking up, so wash off any foreign objects

on the zoom lever or mode dial by shaking the camera in fresh water. Confirm that the zoom

lever and mode dial moves smoothly after cleaning.

•After soaking or washing the unit, wipe off water drops with a dry soft cloth and dry the unit in

an area of shade with a draft.

•This unit incorporates drain design, draining water in gaps in the power button and zoom lever

etc. As a result of this, bubbles may come out when you soak the unit in water, but it is not a

malfunction. Make sure that water is completely drained from the unit after soaking in water by

standing the unit on a dry cloth for a while.

•Do not dry the camera with hot air from dryer or similar. Waterproof performance will deteriorate

due to deformation.

•Do not use chemicals, such as benzine, thinner, or alcohol, soap, detergents.

Charging the Battery

∫ About batteries that you can use with this unit

The battery that can be used with this unit is DMW-BCF10PP.

•

Use the dedicated charger and battery.

•This unit has a function that can distinguish useable batteries. Exclusive batteries

(DMW-BCF10PP) are supported by this function. (Conventional batteries not supported

by this function cannot be used)

•The battery is not charged when the camera is shipped. Charge the battery before use.

•Charge the battery with the charger indoors.

•Charge the battery in a temperature between 10 oC to 35 oC (50 oF to 95 oF). (The battery

temperature should also be the same.)

It has been found that counterfeit battery packs which look very similar to the

genuine product 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 would recommend that a

genuine Panasonic battery pack is used.

Attach the battery paying

attention to the direction of the

battery.

Connect the charger to the

electrical outlet.

• Charging starts when the [CHARGE]

indicator A lights green.

• Charging is complete when the

[CHARGE] indicator A turns off (after

approx. 130 min maximum).

Detach the battery after

charging is completed.

Preparation

∫ When the [CHARGE] indicator flashes

•

The battery temperature is excessively high or low. The charging time will be longer than

normal. Also, charging may not be completed.

•The terminals of the charger or the battery are dirty. In this case, wipe them with a dry cloth.

Note

•

Disconnect the charger from the power outlet after the charging is completed.

•The battery becomes warm after using it and during and after charging. The camera also

becomes warm during use. This is not a malfunction.

•The battery will be exhausted if left for a long period of time after being charged.

•The battery can be recharged even when it still has some charge left, but it is not

recommended that the battery charge be frequently topped up while the battery is fully

charged. (The battery has characteristics that will reduce its operating duration and cause the

battery to swell up.)

•When the operating time of the camera becomes extremely short even after properly charging

the battery, the life of the battery may have expired. Buy a new battery.

•Do not leave any metal items (such as clips) near the contact areas of the power plug.

Otherwise, a fire and/or electric shocks may be caused by short-circuiting or the

resulting heat generated.

∫ Battery indication

The battery indication is displayed on the LCD monitor.

[It does not appear when you use the camera with the AC adaptor (DMW-AC5PP;

optional) connected.]

•

The indication turns red and blinks if the remaining battery power is exhausted. (The status

indicator blinks when the LCD monitor turns off.) Recharge the battery or replace it with a fully

charged battery.

Preparation

The number of recordable pictures varies depending on the recording interval time.

If the recording interval time becomes longer, the number of recordable pictures

decreases. [e.g. When recording once every 2 minutes, the number of recordable

pictures decreases to about 85.]

The number of recordable pictures and playback time will vary depending on the

operating conditions and storing condition of the battery.

•

Recorded continuously setting the recording mode to [AVCHD Lite] and [QUALITY] to [ ]

Available recording time is different depending on the recording intervals or

conditions of use.

¢

¢ Available recording time becomes shorter when power is turned [ON]/[OFF], recording is

started/stopped or zoom operation is repeated.

∫ Charging

Charging time and number of recordable pictures with the optional battery pack

(DMW-BCF10PP) are the same as above.

The charging time will vary slightly depending on the status of the battery and the

conditions in the charging environment.

When the charging has been completed successfully, the [CHARGE] indicator turns off.

Note

•

The battery may swell and its operating time may become shorter as the number of times it is

charged increases. For long term battery use, we recommend you do not frequently charge the

battery before it is exhausted.

•There may be a residual image on the LCD monitor when used in low temperature, such as

at the ski resort. Also, performance of the battery may temporarily degrade, resulting in

shorter usage time, fewer number of pictures, etc. In such cases, it is recommended to

purchase spare batteries.
