Charging battery
■■About batteries that you can use with this unit
The battery that can be used with this unit is DMW-BCG10PP.
It has been found that counterfeit battery packs which look very similar to the genuine products 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 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 (DMW-BCG10PP) 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 and set the Clock before use.
••Charge the battery with the charger indoors (10 °C - 35 °C (50 °F -
95 °F)).
Insert the battery terminals and attach |
