Charging the Battery

∫About batteries that you can use with this unit

The battery that can be used with this unit is DMW-BCF10E.

•Use the dedicated charger and battery.

•The camera has a function for distinguishing batteries which can be used

safely. The dedicated battery (DMW-BCF10E) supports this function. The

only batteries suitable for use with this unit are genuine Panasonic

products and batteries manufactured by other companies and certified by

Panasonic. (Batteries which do not support this function cannot be used).

Panasonic cannot in any way guarantee the quality, performance or safety

of batteries which have been manufactured by other companies and are

not genuine Panasonic products.

∫Charging

•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. (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.
