slower than advertised.

 Keep the Memory Card out of reach of children to prevent swallowing.

   If available battery power is significantly reduced, battery is reaching end of lifespan. Please 

purchase a new battery.

   For your safety and to prevent damage to this camera, do not attempt to operate this camera with 

any non-Panasonic “after-market” brand battery.

   When charging:

   •  Remove any dirt on connectors of charger and battery with dry cloth.

   •  Keep at least 1 m (3.28 feet) away from AM radio (may cause radio interference).

   •  Noises may be emitted from inside of charger, but this is not a fault.

   •  Always remove from main socket after charging (up to 0.1 W consumed if left in place).

   Store battery in battery carrying case after use.

   Do not use if damaged or dented (especially connectors), e.g. by dropping 

(can cause faults).

   The unusable battery should be discarded in accordance with battery 

recycling laws.
