It may cause an accident.

oDo not use or store the equipment in dusty or humid places. Likewise, keep the

battery away from metallic items and store it with its protective cover attached to

prevent short-circuit. This is to prevent re, excessive heat, electrical shock, and burns.

oTo prevent a re and electrical shock, follow the safeguards below:

• Do not connect too many power plugs to the same power outlet.

• Do not use a cord whose wire is broken or insulation is damaged.

Do not connect the battery directly to an electrical outlet or a car’s cigarette lighter outlet.

The battery may leak, generate excessive heat or explode, causing re, burns, or injuries.

oA thorough explanation of how to use the product by an adult is required when the

product is used by children. Supervise children while they are using the product. Incorrect usage may result in electrical shock or injury.

Handling Precautions

Camera Care

zThis camera is a precision instrument. Do not drop it or subject it to

physical shock.

zThe camera is not waterproof and cannot be used underwater. zTo maximize the camera’s dust- and drip- resistance, keep the

terminal cover, battery compartment cover, card slot cover, and all

other covers rmly closed.

zThis camera is designed to be dust- and drip- resistant, in order to

help prevent sand, dust, dirt, or water that falls on it unexpectedly

from getting inside, but it is impossible to prevent dirt, dust, water,

or salt from getting inside at all. As far as possible, do not allow dirt,

dust, water, or salt to get on the camera.

zIf water gets on the camera, wipe it o󰀨 with a dry and clean cloth. If

dirt, dust, or salt gets on the camera, wipe it o󰀨 with a clean, well-

wrung wet cloth.

zUsing the camera in a location with large amounts of dirt or dust may

cause a malfunction.

zCleaning the camera after use is recommended. Allowing dirt, dust,

water, or salt to remain on the camera may cause a malfunction.

zIf you accidentally drop the camera into water or are concerned that

moisture (water), dirt, dust, or salt may have gotten inside it, promptly

consult the nearest Canon Service Center.

zNever leave the camera near anything having a strong magnetic eld

such as a magnet or electric motor. Also, avoid using or leaving the

camera near anything emitting strong radio waves, such as a large

antenna. Strong magnetic elds can cause camera malfunction or

destroy image data.

zDo not leave the camera in excessive heat, such as in a car in direct

sunlight. High temperatures can cause the camera to malfunction.

zThe camera contains precision electronic circuitry. Never attempt to

disassemble the camera yourself.

Handling Precautions

zDo not block shutter curtain operation with your nger or other

objects. Doing so may cause a malfunction.

zUse only a commercially available blower to blow away dust when it

adheres to the lens, viewnder, etc. Do not use cleaners that contain organic solvents to clean the camera body or lens. For stubborn dirt, take the camera to the nearest Canon Service Center.

zDo not touch the camera’s electrical contacts with your ngers. This

is to prevent the contacts from corroding. Corroded contacts can cause camera malfunction.

zIf the camera is suddenly brought in from the cold into a warm room,

condensation may form on the camera and internal parts. To prevent condensation, rst put the camera in a sealed plastic bag and let it adjust to the warmer temperature before taking it out of the bag.

zIf condensation forms on the camera, do not use the camera. This is

to avoid damaging the camera. If there is condensation, remove the lens, card and battery from the camera, and wait until condensation has evaporated before using the camera.

zIf the camera will not be used for an extended period, remove the

battery and store the camera in a cool, dry, well-ventilated location. Even while the camera is in storage, press the shutter button a few times once in a while to check that the camera is still working.

zAvoid storing the camera where there are chemicals that result in

rust and corrosion such as in a chemical lab.

zIf the camera has not been used for an extended period, test all its

functions before using it. If you have not used the camera for some time or if there is an important shoot such as a foreign trip coming up, have the camera checked by your nearest Canon Service Center or check the camera yourself and make sure it is working properly.

zThe camera may become hot after repeated continuous shooting

or still photo/movie shooting over an extended period. This is not a malfunction.

zIf there is a bright light source inside or outside the image area,

ghosting may occur.

Handling Precautions

(1)

Screen, Viewnder, and LCD Panel

z Although the screen and viewnder are manufactured with very

high precision technology with over 99.99% e󰀨ective pixels, 0.01%

or fewer of the pixels may be dead, and there may also be spots of

black, red, or other colors. This is not a malfunction. They do not

a󰀨ect the images recorded.

zIf the screen and viewnder are left on for a prolonged period, screen

burn-in may occur where you see remnants of what was displayed.

However, this is only temporary and will disappear when the camera

is left unused for a few days.

z The screen display may seem slightly slow in low temperatures or

may look black in high temperatures. It will return to normal at room

temperature.

Shutter

zShutter blades may become scu󰀨ed from shutter operations, but this

does not indicate damage.

Cards

To protect the card and its recorded data, note the following:

zDo not drop, bend, or wet the card. Do not subject it to excessive

force, physical shock, or vibration.

zDo not touch the card’s electronic contacts with your ngers or

anything metallic.

zDo not a󰀩x any stickers, etc. on the card. zDo not store or use the card near anything that has a strong

magnetic eld, such as a television, speakers, or magnets. Also

avoid places prone to having static electricity.

zDo not leave the card in direct sunlight or near a heat source. zStore the card in a case. zDo not store the card in hot, dusty, or humid locations.

Lens

zAfter detaching the lens from the camera, put down

the lens with the rear end up and attach the rear

lens cap to avoid scratching the lens surface and

electrical contacts (1).
