Charging the Battery
∫ About batteries that you can use with this unit
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.
•
Use the dedicated charger and battery.
• The camera has a function for distinguishing batteries which can be used safely. The
dedicated battery 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.
• 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 (50 oF to 95 oF). (The battery
temperature should also be the same.)
Attach the battery with
attention to the direction of the
battery.

Connect the charger to the
electrical outlet.
• The AC cable does not fit entirely into
the AC input terminal. A gap will remain
as shown on the right.
• Charging starts when the [CHARGE]
indicator A lights green.
• Charging is complete when the
[CHARGE] indicator A turns off.
Detach the battery after
charging is completed.

Preparation
∫ When the [CHARGE] indicator flashes
•
The battery temperature is too high or too low. Please charge the battery again in a
temperature between 10 oC to 35 oC (50 oF to 95 oF).
• The terminals of the charger or the battery are dirty. In this case, wipe them with a dry cloth.
Note
After charging is completed, be sure to disconnect the power supply device from the electrical
•
outlet.
• The battery becomes warm after using it and during and after charging. The camera also
becomes warm during use. This is not a malfunction.
• The battery will be exhausted if left for a long period of time after being charged.
• The battery can be recharged even when it still has some charge left, but it is not
recommended that the battery charge be frequently topped up while the battery is fully
charged.
•
When the operating time of the camera becomes extremely short even after properly charging
the battery, the life of the battery may have expired. Buy a new battery.
(Since characteristic swelling may occur.)
• Do not leave any metal items (such as clips) near the contact areas of the power plug.
Otherwise, a fire and/or electric shocks may be caused by short-circuiting or the
resulting heat generated.

The indicated charging time is for when the battery has been discharged completely.
The charging time may vary depending on how the battery has been used. The charging
time for the battery in hot/cold environments or a battery that has not been used for long
time may be longer than normal.

The battery may swell and its operating time may become shorter as the number of times it is
charged increases. For long term battery use, we recommend you do not frequently charge the
battery before it is exhausted.
• The performance of the battery may temporarily deteriorate and the operating time may
become shorter in low temperature conditions (e.g. skiing/snowboarding).
