This phenomenon has no effects on charging. • If you use the battery charger near a radio, the radio reception may be disturbed. Keep the charger 1 m (3.3 feet) or more away from radio.
Page 761 Please note in advance that Panasonic is not liable in any way for any direct or indirect damage from the alteration or vanishing of information or personal information.
Page 762 Check all the parts before recording when you have not used the camera for a long period of time.  Image Data • Recorded data may be damaged or lost if the camera breaks down due to inappropriate handling. Panasonic will not be liable for any damage caused due to loss of recorded data.
Page 763 Materials – Cautions for Use  Tripod • Make sure the tripod is stable when the camera is attached to it. • When using a tripod, removal of the battery may not be possible. • Care is required because tightening the screw excessively may damage the camera, or cause the rating label to come off.
Page 764 LAN devices, ensure that the appropriate measures are taken for safety designs and defects for the systems used. Panasonic will not take any responsibility for any damage that arises when using the camera for any purpose other than as a wireless LAN device.
