Use a specified Four Thirds lens (Four Thirds mount). When a non-specified lens is used, AF
(auto focus) and light metering will not function correctly. In some cases, other functions may
not work either.

interchangeable lenses featuring the Four Thirds mount were developed from the ground up based

x Notes
• When you attach or remove the body cap and lens from the camera, keep the lens mount on
the camera pointed downward. This helps prevent dust and other foreign matter from getting
inside the camera.
• Do not remove the body cap or attach the lens in dusty places.
• Do not point the lens attached to the camera toward the sun. This may cause the camera to
malfunction or even ignite due to the magnifying effect of sunlight focusing through the lens.
• Be careful not to lose the body cap and rear cap.
• Attach the body cap to the camera to prevent dust from getting inside when no lens is attached.
