not to drop or hit it.
• The outer case may be destroyed by the
strong shock, and it may cause
malfunction of this camera.
Keep the camera away from magnetized
equipment (such as a microwave oven,
TV, video game equipment, etc.).
• If you use the camera on or near a TV,
pictures and sounds may be disrupted
due to electromagnetic wave radiation.
• Do not use the camera near a cell phone
because doing so may cause noise to
adversely affect the pictures and sounds.
• 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 a microprocessor may adversely affect
the camera, causing the disturbance of
pictures and sounds.
• If the camera is affected by magnetically
charged equipment and does not function
properly, turn the camera off and remove
the battery or disconnect AC adaptor
(DMW-CAC1; optional) and then insert
the battery or connect AC adaptor again.
Thereafter, turn the camera on.
Do not use the camera near radio
transmitters or high-voltage lines.
• If you record near radio transmitters or
high-voltage lines, recorded pictures or
sounds may be adversely affected.
Do not spray insecticides or volatile
chemicals onto the camera.
• If the camera is sprayed with such
chemicals, the camera body may be
damaged and the surface finish may peel
off.
• Do not keep rubber or plastic products in
contact with the camera for a long period
of time.
Do not use benzine, thinner or alcohol
for cleaning the camera.
• Before cleaning the camera, remove the
battery or disconnect the charger from the

the surface finish may peel off.
• Wipe the camera with a soft, dry cloth. To
remove stubborn stains, wipe with a cloth
that is soaked in a detergent diluted with

dry cloth.
• When you use chemical cloth, follow the
instructions that come with the cloth.
• In case rain or other sources of water
splash onto the camera, wet a soft cloth
with tap water, wring it well, and use it to
wipe the camera body carefully. Then
wipe it again with a dry cloth.
