Panasonic Customer Care Centre on 132600.

Keep this unit as far away as possible from electromagnetic

equipment (such as microwave ovens, TVs, video games etc.).

≥If you use this unit on top of or near a TV, the pictures and/or sound on

this unit may be disrupted by electromagnetic wave radiation.

≥Do not use this unit near cell phones because doing so may result in

noise adversely affecting the pictures and/or sound.

≥Recorded data may be damaged, or pictures may be distorted, by

strong magnetic fields created by speakers or large motors.

≥Electromagnetic wave radiation generated by microprocessors may

adversely affect this unit, disturbing the pictures and/or sound.

≥If this unit is adversely affected by electromagnetic equipment and

stops functioning properly, turn this unit off and remove the battery or

disconnect AC adaptor. Then reinsert the battery or reconnect AC

adaptor and turn this unit on.

Do not use this unit near radio transmitters or high-voltage lines.

≥If you record near radio transmitters or high-voltage lines, the recorded

pictures and/or sound may be adversely affected.

About connecting to a PC

≥Do not use any other USB cables except the supplied one.

About connecting to a TV

∫About recording formats and compatibility of the unit

≥The unit is an MP4 format (MPEG-4 AVC file standard) Dual Camera

for recording high-definition motion pictures.

edited content, and does not guarantee any content if recording or editing

does not work properly. Likewise, the above also applies in a case where

any type of repair is made to the unit (including any other non-built-in

memory related component).

∫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.

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 adaptor and leave the unit like that for

about one hour. When the unit becomes accustomed to the surrounding

temperature, fogginess will disappear naturally.
