The following precautions are intended to prevent harm to you and others
as well as damage to equipment. Become familiar with the precautions
before using the receiver to ensure correct and safe operation.

To prevent fire, excessive heat, chemical leakage, or explosion, follow these safety
guidelines.
• Do not insert metallic objects between the receiver’s electrical contacts.

Keep the accessories away from children. In case of accidental ingestion, consult a
physician immediately.

In case of excessive heat, smoke, or fumes, immediately remove the batteries, being
careful to avoid burns. Continued use in this state may cause fire or burns.

Do not operate the receiver while driving. This poses a risk of traffic accidents.

Do not use the receiver where there is flammable gas. There is a risk of explosion or fire.

If the receiver is dropped and internal parts are exposed, do not touch the exposed
parts. There is a risk of electrical shock.

Do not disassemble or modify the receiver. High-voltage internal parts may cause
electrical shock.

Do not store the receiver in dusty or humid places. There is a risk of fire or electrical
shock.

Before using the receiver on board airplanes or in hospitals, make sure use is
permitted. Electromagnetic waves emitted by the receiver may interfere with
instrumentation or medical equipment.

Do not leave the receiver inside a vehicle in hot weather or near a heat source. The
receiver may become hot and cause burns if touched.

Do not use the receiver when it is covered by or wrapped in a cloth. This may trap
heat inside, posing a risk of case deformation or fire.

Do not use paint thinner, benzene, or other organic solvents to clean the receiver.
This poses a risk of fire and may be hazardous to your health.

If you drop the receiver in water, or if water or metal objects get inside, immediately
remove the batteries. This poses a risk of fire or electric shock.

If the unit malfunctions, becomes damaged, or requires repair, contact your
dealer or a Canon Service Center.

Handle the receiver in accordance with “Handling Precautions: Camera
Care” in the camera instruction manual.
