About batteries that you can use with this unit
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 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.
