Exposure to the intense light produced by the flash could damage eyesight. In particular, remain at least one meter (39 inches) away from infants when using the flash.
Store this equipment out of the reach of children and infants.
Strap: Putting the strap around a child’s neck could result in asphyxiation. Memory card, day/date battery: Dangerous if swallowed. If this occurs, contact a doctor immediately.
Do not attempt to disassemble or alter any part of the equipment unless
expressly indicated to do so in this guide.
To avoid the risk of injury, do not touch the interior of the camera if it has been
dropped or otherwise damaged.
Stop operating the camera immediately if it emits smoke, a strange smell, or
otherwise behaves abnormally.
Do not use organic solvents such as alcohol, benzine, or thinner to clean the
equipment.
Do not allow liquids or foreign objects to enter the camera.
The above could result in fire or electrical shock. If liquid or foreign objects come into contact with the camera interior, immediately turn the camera power off and remove the batteries.
Use only recommended power sources.
Using other power sources could result in fire or electrical shock.

Safety Precautions
Batteries
Use only recommended batteries.
Do not place the batteries near or in direct flame.
Do not let the batteries come into contact with water (e.g. sea water) or other
liquids.
Do not attempt to disassemble, alter or apply heat to the batteries.
Avoid dropping or subjecting the batteries to severe impacts.
The above may cause explosions or leaks, resulting in fire, injury and damage to the surroundings. In the event that a battery leaks and the eyes, mouth, skin or clothing contacts these substances, immediately flush with water and seek medical assistance.
Other Warnings
Do not play the supplied CD-ROM(s) in any CD player that does not support
data CD-ROMs.
It is possible to suffer hearing loss from listening with headphones to the loud sounds of a CD-ROM played on a music CD player. Additionally, playing the CD-ROM(s) in an audio CD player (music player) could damage the speakers.
Caution
Be careful not to bang the camera or subject it to strong impacts or shocks
when hanging it by the strap.
Be careful not to bump or push strongly on the lens.
This could damage the camera or lead to injury.
Avoid using, placing or storing the camera in the following places.
- Places subject to strong sunlight.
- Places subject to temperatures above 40 °C (104 °F).
- Humid or dusty areas.
These could cause leakage, overheating or an explosion of the batteries, resulting in electrical shock, fire, burns or other injuries. High temperatures may also cause deformation of the casing.

Safety Precautions
Caution
Do not aim the camera at bright light sources (the sun, etc.).
Doing so may cause malfunctions or damage the image sensor.
When using the camera on a beach or at a windy location, be careful not to
allow dust or sand to enter the camera.
This may cause the camera to malfunction.
In regular use, small amounts of smoke may be emitted from the flash.
This is due to the high intensity of the flash burning dust and foreign materials stuck to the front of the unit. Please use a cotton swab to remove dirt, dust or other foreign matter from the flash to prevent heat build-up and damage to the unit.
Remove and store the batteries when you are not using the camera.
If the batteries are left inside the camera, damage caused by leakage may occur.
Before you discard batteries, cover the terminals with tape or other insulators.
Contacting other metal materials in waste containers may lead to fire or explosions.
Do not sit down with the camera in your 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.
Do not attach accessories to the strap.
Doing so may cause malfunctions or damage the screen.
Functions that differ depending on the camera model are indicated with
the following icons:
: Functions and precautions for the PowerShot A495 only : Functions and precautions for the PowerShot A490 only
Explanations without these icons apply to both models.

Formatting Memory Cards

Before you use a new memory card or one that has been formatted in other devices, you should format the card with this camera.

14
Page 15

Pressing the Shutter Button

Formatting or erasing data on a memory card merely changes the file management information on the card and does not ensure its contents are completely erased. Be careful when transferring or disposing of a memory card. When disposing of a memory card, take precautions such as physically destroying the card to prevent personal information leaks.
The total capacity of the memory card displayed in the formatting screen may be less than indicated on the memory card.
