To maximize the camera's dust- and drip- resistance, keep the terminal cover, battery

compartment cover, card slot cover, and all other covers firmly closed. Also attach the

shoe cover to the multi-function shoe.

This 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.

If water gets on the camera, wipe it off with a dry and clean cloth. If dirt, dust, or salt gets

on the camera, wipe it off with a clean, well-wrung wet cloth.

Using the camera in dusty or dirty locations may lead to damage.

Cleaning the camera after use is recommended. Allowing dirt, dust, water, or salt to

remain on the camera may cause a malfunction.

If 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.

Never leave the camera near anything having a strong magnetic field 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 fields can cause camera

malfunction or destroy image data.

Do not leave the camera in excessive heat, such as in a car in direct sunlight. High

temperatures can cause the camera to malfunction.

The camera contains precision electronic circuitry. Never attempt to disassemble the

camera yourself.

Do not block shutter curtain operation with your finger or other objects. Doing so may

cause a malfunction.

Only use a commercially available blower to blow away dust on the lens, viewfinder, or

other parts. 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.

Do not touch the camera's electrical contacts with your fingers. This is to prevent the

contacts from corroding. Corroded contacts can cause camera malfunction.

If 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, first put the camera in

a sealed plastic bag and let it adjust to the warmer temperature before taking it out of

the bag.

If condensation forms on the camera, to avoid damage, do not use the camera or

remove the lens, card, or battery. Turn the camera off and wait until the moisture has

fully evaporated before resuming use. Even after the camera is completely dry, if it is still

internally cold, do not remove the lens, card, or battery until the camera has adjusted to

the ambient temperature.

If 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.

Page 27

Avoid storing the camera where there are chemicals that result in rust and corrosion

such as in a chemical lab.

If 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.

The camera may become hot after repeated continuous shooting or still photo/movie

shooting over an extended period. This is not a malfunction.

If there is a bright light source inside or outside the image area, ghosting may occur.

When shooting with backlighting, keep the sun sufficiently away from the angle of view.

Always keep intense light sources such as the sun, lasers, and other intense artificial

light sources out of the image area and not near it. Concentrated intense light may

cause smoke or damage the image sensor or other internal components.

Attach the lens cap to prevent direct sunlight and other light from entering the lens when

you are not shooting.

Screen and viewfinder

The following does not affect images captured by the camera.

Although the screen and viewfinder are manufactured with very high precision

technology with over 99.99% effective 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.

If the screen is 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.

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.

Cards

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

Do not drop, bend, or wet the card. Do not subject it to excessive force, physical shock,

or vibration.

Do not touch the card's electronic contacts with your fingers or anything metallic.

Do not affix any stickers, etc. on the card.

Do not store or use the card near anything that has a strong magnetic field, such as a

television, speakers, or magnets. Also avoid places prone to having static electricity.

Do not leave the card in direct sunlight or near a heat source.

Store the card in a case.

Do not store the card in hot, dusty, or humid locations.

Cards may become hot after long sessions of repeated continuous shooting or still photo

shooting/movie recording. This is not a malfunction.

Page 28

Lens

After 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).

Smudges on the image sensor

Besides dust entering the camera from outside, in rare cases, lubricant from the camera's internal parts may adhere to the front of the sensor. If smudges are visible on images, have the sensor cleaned by a nearest Canon Service Center.

Battery

Tips for using the battery and charger

Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated location.

When storing the battery for extended periods, charge it about once a year. When

charging the battery, aim to charge it to approx. 50% instead of fully charging it (

At room temperature (23°C/73°F), it takes approx. 60 min. to charge a depleted battery

to about approx. 50%. Battery charging time varies greatly depending on ambient

temperature.

If the battery is not used for an extended period, the trace amount of current that

continues to flow inside the battery when it is removed from the camera may eventually

lead to over-discharge and prevent further use, even after charging.
