Cautions for Use

■ Optimal Use of the Camera
Take care not to drop or
knock the unit or put a lot
of pressure on it.
• Do not leave the unit in
your pants pocket when
you sit down or forcefully
insert it into a full bag etc.
• Take care not to drop or
knock the bag that you
inserted the unit in as it
may strongly shock the unit.
• A strong shock may break the lens,
screen or outer case and cause the
camera to malfunction.
Keep the camera as far away as
possible from electromagnetic
equipment (such as microwave ovens,
TVs, video games etc.).
• If you use the camera on top of or
near a TV, the pictures and sound
on the camera may be disrupted by
electromagnetic wave radiation.
• Do not use the camera near cell phones
because doing so may result in noise
adversely affecting the pictures and
sound.
• Recorded data may be damaged, or
pictures may be distorted, by strong
magnetic fi elds created by speakers or
large motors.
• Electromagnetic wave radiation
generated by microprocessors may
adversely affect the camera, disturbing
the pictures and sound.
• If the camera is adversely affected by
electromagnetic equipment and stops
functioning properly, turn the camera off
and remove the battery or disconnect
AC adaptor (DMW-AC6PP: optional).
Then reinsert the battery or reconnect AC
adaptor and turn the camera on.
