Contains FCC ID: VPYLB1JS955
This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines as this equipment has very low levels of RF energy.
Compliance with FCC requirement 15.407(c) Data transmission is always initiated by software, which is the passed down through the MAC, through the digital and analog baseband, and finally to the RF chip. Several special packets are initiated by the MAC. These are the only ways the digital baseband portion will turn on the RF transmitter, which it then turns off at the end of the packet. Therefore, the transmitter will be on only while one of the aforementioned packets is being transmitted. In other words, this device automatically discontinue transmission in case of either absence of information to transmit or operational failure.
Frequency Tolerance: n 20ppm

Firmware of Your Camera/Lens Firmware updates may be provided in order to improve camera capabilities or to add functionality. For smoother recording, we recommend updating the firmware of the camera/lens to the latest version. 0 For the latest information on the firmware or to download/
update the firmware, visit the following support site: https://panasonic.jp/support/global/cs/dsc/ (English only) 0 To check the firmware version of the camera/lens, attach the lens to
the camera and select [Firmware Version] in the [Setup] ([Others]) menu. You can also update the firmware in [Firmware Version]. 0 This document provides explanations for camera firmware version 1.0. Changes
after firmware update are detailed in the Owners Manual (PDF format). Refer to this by downloading from the website. (l 4)
Handling of the Camera When using the camera, take care not to drop it, bump it, or apply undue force. These may cause malfunction or damage to the camera and lens. If sand, dust, or liquid gets on the monitor, wipe it off with a dry soft cloth.
Touch operations may be incorrectly recognized.
When using in low temperatures (s10 oC to 0 oC (14 oF to 32 oF)) Before use, attach a Panasonic lens with a minimum recommended operating
temperature of j10 oC (14 oF). Do not place a hand inside the camera mount. This may cause a failure or damage because the sensor is a precision device. If you shake the camera while turning the camera off, a sensor may operate or a rattling sound may be heard. This is caused by the image stabilizer mechanism in the body. It is not a malfunction.

Splash Resistant Splash Resistant is a term used to describe an extra level of protection this camera offers against exposure to a minimal amount of moisture, water or dust. Splash Resistant does not guarantee that damage will not occur if this camera is subjected to direct contact with water. In order to minimize the possibility of damage please be sure the following precautions are taken:
Splash Resistant works in conjunction with the lenses that were specifically designed to support this feature.
Securely close the doors, socket caps, contact points cover, etc. When the lens or cap is removed or a door is open, do not allow sand, dust, and
moisture to enter inside. If liquid gets on the camera, wipe it off with a dry soft cloth.
Condensation (When the Lens, the Viewfinder or Monitor is Fogged Up)
0 Condensation occurs when there are temperature or humidity differences. Take care as this may lead to soiling, mold, and malfunctions in the lens, viewfinder, and monitor. 0 If condensation occurs, turn off the camera and leave it for approx. 2 hours. The fog
will disappear naturally when the temperature of the camera becomes close to the ambient temperature.
Be Sure to Perform Trial Recording in Advance Perform trial recording in advance of an important event (wedding, etc.) to check that recording can be performed normally.
No Compensation Regarding Recording Please note that compensation cannot be provided in the event that recording could not be performed due to a problem with the camera or a card.
