Preliminary Notes and Legal

Information

●● Take and review some test shots initially to make sure the images were recorded correctly. Please note that Canon Inc., its subsidiaries and affiliates, and its distributors are not liable for any consequential damages arising from any malfunction of a camera or accessory, including memory cards, that result in the failure of an image to be recorded or to be recorded in a way that is machine readable.

●● Be sure to also check the guides included with any separately sold accessories you use.

 Warning Denotes the possibility of serious injury or death.

●● Use only recommended power sources.

●● Do not disassemble, alter, or apply heat to the product.

●● Do not peel off the adhesive covering, if the battery pack has it. ●● Avoid dropping or subjecting the product to severe impacts.

●● Do not touch the interior of the product if it is broken, such as when dropped.

●● Avoid contact with liquid, and do not allow liquid or foreign objects inside.

This could result in electrical shock or fire.

If the product gets wet, or if liquid or foreign objects get inside, remove the battery pack/batteries or unplug immediately.

●● If your model has a viewfinder or interchangeable lens, do not look through the viewfinder or lens at bright light sources (such as the sun on a clear day, or a bright artificial light source).

This may damage your eyesight.

●● If your model has an interchangeable lens, do not leave the lens (or the camera with the lens attached) in the sun without the lens cap on.

This could result in a fire.

●● Do not touch the product during thunderstorms if it is plugged in.

This could result in electrical shock or fire. Immediately stop using the product and distance yourself from it.

●● Use only the recommended battery pack/batteries.

●● Do not place the battery pack/batteries near or in direct flame.

This may cause the battery pack/batteries to explode or leak, resulting in electrical shock, fire, or injuries. If leaking battery electrolyte comes into contact with eyes, mouth, skin, or clothing, immediately flush with water.

●● If the product uses a battery charger, note the following precautions.

-- Remove the plug periodically and, using a dry cloth, wipe away any dust and dirt that has collected on the plug, the exterior of the power outlet, and the surrounding area.

-- Do not insert or remove the plug with wet hands.

-- Do not use the equipment in a manner that exceeds the rated capacity of the electrical outlet or wiring accessories. Do not use if the plug is damaged or not fully inserted in the outlet.

-- Do not allow dust or metal objects (such as pins or keys) to contact the terminals or plug.

-- Do not cut, damage, alter, or place heavy items on the power cord, if your product uses one.

This could result in electrical shock or fire.

●● Turn the camera off in places where camera use is prohibited.

The electromagnetic waves emitted by the camera may interfere with the operation of electronic instruments and other devices. Exercise adequate caution when using the product in places where use of electronic devices is restricted, such as inside airplanes and medical facilities.

●● Do not allow the camera to maintain contact with skin for extended periods.

Even if the camera does not feel hot, this may cause low-temperature burns, manifested in redness of the skin or blistering. Use a tripod in hot places, or if you have poor circulation or insensitive skin.

 Caution Denotes the possibility of injury.

●● When carrying the product by the strap, be careful not to bang it, subject it to strong impacts or shocks, or let it get caught on other objects.

●● Be careful not to bump or push strongly on the lens. This could lead to injury or damage the camera.

●● Be careful not to subject the screen to strong impacts.

If the screen cracks, injury may result from the broken fragments.

●● When using the flash, be careful not to cover it with your fingers or clothing.

This could result in burns or damage to the flash.

●● Avoid using, placing, or storing the product in the following places: -- Places subject to direct sunlight

-- Places subject to temperatures above 40 °C (104 °F)

-- Humid or dusty places

These could cause leakage, overheating, or an explosion of the battery pack/batteries, resulting in electrical shock, fire, burns, or other injuries. Overheating and damage may result in electrical shock, fire, burns, or other injuries.

●● The slideshow transition effects may cause discomfort when viewed for prolonged periods.

●● When using optional lenses, lens filters, or filter adapters (if applicable), be sure to attach these accessories firmly.

If the lens accessory becomes loose and falls off, it may crack, and the shards of glass may lead to cuts.

●● On products that raise and lower the flash automatically, make sure to avoid pinching your fingers with the lowering flash.

This could result in injury.

Caution	Denotes the possibility of property damage.

●● Do not aim the camera at intense light sources, such as the sun on a clear day or an intense artificial light source.

Doing so may damage the image sensor or other internal components.

●● When using the camera on a sandy beach or at a windy location, be careful not to allow dust or sand to enter the camera.

●● On products that raise and lower the flash automatically, do not push the flash down or pry it open.

This may cause the product to malfunction.

●● Wipe off any dust, grime, or other foreign matter on the flash with a cotton swab or cloth.

The heat emitted from the flash may cause foreign matter to smoke or the product to malfunction.

●● Remove and store the battery pack/batteries when you are not using the product.

Any battery leakage that occurs may cause product damage.

●● Before you discard the battery pack/batteries, cover the terminals with tape or other insulators.

Contacting other metal materials may lead to fire or explosions.

●● Unplug any battery charger used with the product when not in use. Do not cover with a cloth or other objects when in use.

Leaving the unit plugged in for a long period of time may cause it to overheat and distort, resulting in fire.

●● Do not leave any dedicated battery packs near pets.

Pets biting the battery pack could cause leakage, overheating, or explosion, resulting in product damage or fire.

●● If your product uses multiple batteries, do not use batteries that have different levels of charge together, and do not use old and new batteries together. Do not insert the batteries with the + and – terminals reversed.

This may cause the product to malfunction.

●● Do not sit down with the camera in your pant pocket. Doing so may cause malfunctions or damage the screen.

●● When putting the camera in your bag, ensure that hard objects do not come into contact with the screen. Also close the screen (so that it faces the body), if your product’s screen closes.

●● Do not attach any hard objects to the product.

Doing so may cause malfunctions or damage the screen.
