Charging the Battery

About batteries that you can use with this unit The battery that can be used with this unit is DMW-BCF10PP. It has been found that counterfeit battery packs which look very similar to the genuine product 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 re 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 would recommend that a genuine Panasonic battery pack is used. Use the dedicated charger and battery. The battery is not charged when the camera is shipped. Charge the battery before use. Charge the battery with the charger indoors. Charge the battery in a temperature between 10 C to 35 C (50 F to 95 F). (The battery temperature should also be the same.)

Attach the battery paying attention to the direction of the battery.
Connect the charger to the electrical outlet.
Charging starts when the [CHARGE] indicator A lights green. Charging is complete when the [CHARGE] indicator A turns off (after approx. 130 min).
Detach the battery after charging is completed.
When the [CHARGE] indicator ashes The battery temperature is excessively high or low. The charging time will be longer than normal. Also, charging may not be completed. The terminals of the charger or the battery are dirty. In this case, wipe them with a dry cloth.
Note After charging is completed, be sure to disconnect the power supply device from the electrical outlet. The battery becomes warm after using it, and while and after charging. The camera also becomes warm during use. This is not a malfunction. The battery will be exhausted if left for a long period of time after being charged. The battery can be recharged even when it still has some charge left, but it is not recommended that the battery charge be frequently topped up while the battery is fully charged. (The battery has characteristics that will reduce its operating duration and cause the battery to swell up.) When the operating time of the camera becomes extremely short even after properly charging the battery, the life of the battery may have expired. Buy a new battery. Do not leave any metal items (such as clips) near the contact areas of the power plug. Otherwise, a re and/or electric shocks may be caused by short-circuiting or the resulting heat generated. Battery life The number of recordable pictures (By CIPA standard in Normal Picture Mode [1]) Number of recordable pictures Recording time Approx. 390 pictures (DMC-FS42) Approx. 410 pictures (DMC-FS4) Approx. 195 min (DMC-FS42) Approx. 205 min (DMC-FS4) By CIPA standard in Normal Picture Mode
Recording conditions by CIPA standard Temperature: 23 C (73.4 F)/Humidity: 50% when the LCD monitor is on. Using a Panasonic SD Memory Card (32 MB) Starting recording 30 seconds after the camera is turned on. Recording once every 30 seconds, with full ash every second recording. Rotating the zoom lever from Tele to Wide or vice versa in every recording. Turning the camera off every 10 recordings. Leaving the camera until the battery cools down. CIPA is an abbreviation of [Camera & Imaging Products Association]. The number of recordable pictures varies depending on the recording interval time. If the recording interval time becomes longer, the number of recordable pictures decreases. (e.g. When recording once every 2 minutes: about 1/4 of the number when recording once every 30 seconds) Playback time Approx. 420 min

The number of recordable pictures and playback time will vary depending on the operating conditions and storing condition of the battery. Charging Charging time Approx. 130 min Charging time and number of recordable pictures with the optional battery pack (DMWBCF10PP) are the same as above. The charging time will vary slightly depending on the status of the battery and the conditions in the charging environment. When the charging has been completed successfully, the [CHARGE] indicator turns off.
Note The battery may swell and its operating time may become shorter as the number of times it is charged increases. For long term battery use, we recommend you do not frequently charge the battery before it is exhausted. The performance of the battery may temporarily deteriorate and the operating time may become shorter in low temperature conditions (e.g. skiing/snowboarding).
