Cautions For Use; Troubleshooting - Panasonic H-HS35100 Operating Instructions Manual

Cautions for Use

Take care not to drop or knock the lens. Also
take care not to put a lot of pressure on the lens.
≥ Take care not to drop the bag that you inserted the
lens in as it may strongly shock the lens. The camera
may stop operating normally and pictures may no
longer be recorded. Also, the lens may be damaged.
When using pesticides and other volatile
substances around the camera make sure that
they do not get onto the lens.
≥ If such substances get onto the lens they can
damage the exterior case or cause the paint to peel.
Do not carry the unit when it is still attached to
the camera body.
≥ Under no circumstances should the unit be stored in
any of the following locations since doing so may
cause problems in operation or malfunctioning.
– In direct sunlight or on a beach in summer
– In locations with high temperatures and humidity
levels or where the changes in temperature and
humidity are acute
– Where there is fire
– Near heaters, air conditioners or humidifiers
– Where there is vibration
– Inside a vehicle
≥ Refer also to the operating instructions of the
digital camera.
≥ When the unit is not going to be used for a prolonged
period, we recommend storing with a desiccant (silica
gel). Failure to do so may result in performance
failure caused by mold, etc. It is recommended that
you check the unit's operation prior to use.
≥ Do not leave the lens in contact with rubber or
plastic products for extended periods of time.
≥ Do not touch the lens contact point. Doing so can
cause failure of the unit.
≥ Do not disassemble or alter the unit.
Do not use benzine, thinner, alcohol or other
similar cleaning agents to clean the lens glass or
exterior cabinet.
≥ Using solvents can damage the lens or cause the
paint to peel.
≥ Wipe off any dust or fingerprints with a soft, dry cloth.
≥ Wipe off the dust or dirt on the lens mount rubber
(P8), zoom ring, or focus ring with a dry dust cloth.
≥ Do not use a household detergent or a chemically
treated cloth.

Troubleshooting

A sound is heard when the camera is turned on or off.
≥ This is the sound of lens or aperture movement
and is not a malfunction.
