About the Batteries

Usable batteries

• One of the following messages

appears when you insert batteries for
the first time, change the batteries
when they become exhausted etc.
[CURRENT BATTERY TYPE SETTING:
OXYRIDE]/[CURRENT BATTERY TYPE
SETTING: ALKALINE/Ni-MH]
If the batteries inserted are different
from the type displayed in the
message, set [BATTERY TYPE] in the
[SETUP] menu. (P18)

• The battery type that is set can be

distinguished by the colour of the
battery indication (blue or white).
– The battery indication does not appear

when using the AC adaptor
(DMW-AC6G; optional).

A: When oxyride batteries are selected

The battery indication turns blue.

B: When alkaline/Ni-MH batteries are

selected
The battery indication turns white.

¢An oxyride battery is a new type of

non-rechargeable battery developed by
Panasonic.
It has more power than a regular alkaline
battery and is suitable for high-drain
equipment such as digital cameras.

• We recommend using Panasonic

batteries.

• If rechargeable batteries are to be used,

rechargeable batteries manufactured by
Panasonic are recommended.

• Battery performance may vary greatly

depending on the brand used and the
storage life and conditions of the batteries.

• Battery performance temporarily

deteriorates in low temperature conditions
(10 °C or less). However, it recovers when
the temperature returns to normal.

• Depending on the temperature and the

conditions of use, the camera may not
operate properly and the batteries may
become exhausted without warning
because the battery indication is not
displayed correctly. This is not a
malfunction.

• We recommend turning the camera off

frequently while recording to conserve
battery power for longer battery life. If you
will be using the camera for long periods
of time, using rechargeable Ni-MH
batteries is recommended.

• Exhausted batteries may recover some

performance if left for a period of time.
However, they cannot be used for a long
time. Be sure to replace them with new
batteries.

Batteries that we cannot recommend

for use in this unit

• Operation is not guaranteed when using

the batteries listed above. The batteries
can leak and the following malfunctions
can occur:
– The remaining battery power is not

displayed accurately.

– The camera does not turn on.
– Data written to the built-in memory or

the card is damaged resulting in loss of
the photographs.
