Safety Precautions

•Before using the camera, please ensure that you read the safety precautions described below and in the "Safety Precautions" section of the Basic Camera User Guide. Always ensure that the camera is operated correctly.

•The safety precautions noted on the following pages are intended to instruct you in the safe and correct operation of the camera and its accessories to prevent injuries or damage to yourself, other persons and equipment.

•Equipment refers to the camera, battery charger or separately sold compact power adapter.

•Battery refers to the battery pack.

A Warnings

Equipment

Do not aim the camera directly into the sun or at other intense light sources that could damage your eyesight.

Store this equipment out of the reach of children and infants. Accidental damage by a child could result in serious injury.

Wrist strap: Placement of the strap around the child's neck could result in asphyxiation.

Memory card: It may be swallowed accidentally. If this occurs, contact a doctor immediately.

Do not attempt to disassemble or alter any part of the equipment that is not expressly described in this guide.

To avoid the risk of high-voltage electrical shock, do not touch the flash portion of the camera if it has been damaged.

Stop operating the equipment immediately if it emits smoke or noxious fumes.

Do not allow the equipment to come into contact with, or become immersed in, water or other liquids. If the exterior comes into contact with liquids or salt air, wipe it dry with a soft, absorbent cloth.

Continued use of the equipment may result in fire or electrical shock. Immediately turn the camera power off and remove the camera battery or unplug the power cord from the power outlet. Please consult your camera distributor or the closest Canon Customer Support Help Desk.

Do not use substances containing alcohol, benzine, thinners or other flammable substances to clean or maintain the equipment.

Do not cut, damage, alter or place heavy items on the power cord.

Use only recommended power accessories.

Remove the power cord on a regular periodic basis and wipe away the dust and dirt that collects on the plug, the exterior of the power outlet and the surrounding area.

Do not handle the power cord if your hands are wet.

Continued use of the equipment may result in fire or electrical shock.

Battery

Do not place the battery near a heat source or expose it to direct flame or heat.

The battery should not be immersed in water or sea water.

Do not attempt to disassemble, alter or apply heat to the battery.

Avoid dropping or subjecting the battery to severe impacts that could damage the casing.

Use only recommended battery and accessories.

Use of battery not expressly recommended for this equipment 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 contact these substances, immediately flush with water and seek medical assistance.

Disconnect the battery charger and compact power adapter from both the camera and the power outlet after recharging or when they are not in use to avoid fire and other hazards.

Do not place anything, such as tablecloths, carpets, bedding or cushions, on top of the battery charger while it is charging.

Continued use over a long period may cause the units to overheat and distort, resulting in fire.

Use only the specified battery charger to charge the battery.

The battery charger and compact power adapter are designed for exclusive use with your camera. Do not use it with other products or batteries.

There is a risk of overheating and distortion which could result in fire or electrical shock.

Before you discard a battery, cover the terminals with tape or other insulators to prevent direct contact with other objects.

Contact with the metallic components of other materials in waste containers may lead to fire or explosions.

8

others

Do not trigger the flash in close proximity to human or animal eyes. Exposure to the intense light produced by the flash may damage eyesight.

In particular, remain at least one meter (39 inches) away from infants when using the flash.

Keep objects that are sensitive to magnetic fields (such as credit cards) away from the speaker of the camera.

Such items may lose data or stop working.

A Cautions

Equipment

Be careful not to bang the camera or subject it to strong impacts or shocks that could lead to injury or damage the equipment when wearing or holding it by the strap.

Do not store the equipment in humid or dusty areas.

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

Such conditions could lead to fire, electrical shock or other damage.

Avoid using, placing or storing the equipment in places subject to strong sunlight or high temperatures, such as the dashboard or trunk (boot) of a car.

Ensure that the battery charger is plugged into a power outlet of the specified rating, not over the specified rating. Do not use if the power cord or plug are damaged, or if not fully plugged into the outlet.

Do not use in locations with poor ventilation.

The above-mentioned can cause leakage, overheating or explosion, resulting in fire, burns or other injuries. High temperatures may also cause deformation of the casing.

When not using the camera for extended periods of time, remove the battery from the camera or battery charger and store the equipment in a safe place.

The battery can run down.

Flash

Do not operate the flash with dirt, dust or other items stuck to the surface of the flash.

Be careful not to cover the flash with your fingers or clothing when shooting.

The flash may be damaged and emit smoke or noise. The resulting heat build-up could damage the flash.

Do not touch the surface of the flash after taking several pictures in rapid succession.

Doing so could result in burns.

10

Preventing Malfunctions

Avoid Strong Magnetic Fields

Never place the camera in close proximity to electric motors or other equipment generating strong electromagnetic fields.

Exposure to strong magnetic fields may cause malfunctions or corrupt image data.

Avoid Condensation Related Problems

When moving the equipment rapidly between hot and cold temperatures, you can avoid condensation by placing the equipment in an airtight, resealable plastic bag and letting it adjust to temperature changes slowly before removing it from the bag.

Moving the equipment rapidly between hot and cold temperatures may cause condensation (water droplets) to form on its external and internal surfaces.

If Condensation Forms Inside the Camera

• Stop using the camera immediately.

Continued use may damage the equipment. Remove the memory card and battery or compact power adapter from the camera and wait until the moisture evaporates completely before resuming use.

Histogram Function

The histogram is a graph that allows you to judge the brightness of the shot image. The greater the bias toward the left in the graph, the darker the image. The greater the bias toward the right, the brighter the image.

If the image is too dark, adjust the exposure compensation to a positive value. Similarly, adjust the exposure compensation to a negative value if the image is too bright (p. 51).
