Refer to catalogues/Web pages for most current information regarding compatible lenses. http://panasonic.co.jp/pavc/global/cs (This Site is English only.)
  • Page 18 Cautions for Use In the event of abnormal operation (e.g. if the unit emits smoke or an unusual smell), immediately stop operating the unit and consult the Panasonic Customer Care Centre on 132600. Optimal use of the camera Take care not to drop or knock the unit or put a lot of pressure on it.
  • Page 19 Cleaning Before cleaning the camera, remove the battery or disconnect the power plug from the outlet. Then wipe the camera with a dry soft cloth. When the camera is soiled badly, it can be cleaned by wiping the dirt off with a wrung wet cloth, and then with a dry cloth.
  • Page 20 About the Lens Do not press the lens with excessive force. Do not leave the camera with the lens facing the sun as rays of light from the sun may cause it to malfunction. Also, be careful when placing the camera outside or near a window. When there is dirt (water, oil, and fingerprints, etc.) on the surface of the lens, the picture may be affected.
  • Page 21 About the picture data Recorded data may be damaged or lost if the camera breaks down due to inappropriate handling. Panasonic will not be liable for any damage suffered due to loss of recorded data. About tripods When you use a tripod, make sure the tripod is stable when this unit is attached to it.
  • Page 22 Message Display Confirmation messages or error messages will be displayed on the screen in some cases. The major messages are described below as examples. [THIS MEMORY CARD IS LOCKED] The Write-Protect switch on the SD Memory Card and the SDHC Memory Card are moved to [LOCK].
  • Page 23 [READ ERROR/WRITE ERROR PLEASE CHECK THE CARD] An error has occurred reading or writing the data. Turn the camera off and remove the card. Insert the card again and turn the camera on. Make sure the camera is turned off before removing or inserting the card to avoid damage.
  • Page 24 Functions that cannot be set or will not work under some conditions Due to the camera’s specifications, it may not be possible to set some of the functions or some functions may not work in some of the conditions under which the camera is used. The table below lists these functions and the corresponding conditions.

  • Page 27 Troubleshooting First, try out the following procedures. If the problem is not resolved, it may be improved by selecting [RESET] on the [SETUP] menu. Battery and power source The camera cannot be operated even when it is turned on. The battery is not inserted correctly. The battery is exhausted.
  • Page 28 Recording The picture cannot be recorded. The shutter does not activate. Is the mode dial correctly set? Is the card inserted? Is there any memory remaining on the card? Delete the pictures which are not necessary to increase the available memory. Is the subject focused? At the time of purchase, the camera is set so that you cannot take a picture until the subject is brought into focus.
  • Page 29 The recorded picture looks rough. Noise appears on the picture. Is the ISO sensitivity high or the shutter speed slow? Decrease the ISO sensitivity. Increase the setting for [NOISE RED.] in [FILM MODE] or lower the setting for each of the items other than [NOISE RED.].
  • Page 30 LCD monitor/Viewfinder The LCD monitor turns off although the camera is turned on. The LCD monitor turns off when [AUTO LCD OFF] is selected for the [ECONOMY] mode. [This does not happen when using the AC adaptor.] If the remaining battery power is low, it may take longer for the flash to be charged, and the time during which the LCD monitor is turned off may become longer.
  • Page 31 Playback The picture being played back is not rotated, or is rotated in an unexpected direction, when displayed. You can display the pictures without being rotated when [ROTATE DISP.] is set to [OFF]. You can rotate pictures with the [ROTATE] function. You can only display the pictures rotated if you use a lens that supports the direction detection function and [ROTATE DISP.] is set to [ON].
  • Page 32 TV, PC and printer The picture does not appear on the television. Is the camera connected to the TV correctly? Set the TV input to external input mode. Output from the [HDMI] socket is not possible when it is connected to the PC or the printer. Connect it only to the TV.
  • Page 33 Others There is a sound from lens unit. It is a sound of lens movement or aperture operation when the power is turned [ON] or [OFF], and it is not a malfunction. You may hear a sound from the lens and image in the LCD monitor may suddenly change when the brightness has changed by zoom operation or moving the camera, but there is no effect on recording.

    6 Service Mode 6.1. Error Code Memory Function 1. General description This unit is equipped with history of error code memory function, and can be memorized 16 error codes in sequence from the latest. When the error is occurred more than 16, the oldest error is overwritten in sequence. The error code is not memorized when the power supply is shut down forcibly (when the unit is powered on by the battery, the battery is pulled out) because the error code is memorized to FLASH ROM when the unit is powered off.
