Handling Precautions

Camera Care

z

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

physical shock.

z

The camera is not waterproof and cannot be used underwater.

z

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.

z

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.

z

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.

z

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

cause a malfunction.

z

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

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

z

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.

z

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.

z

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

sunlight. High temperatures can cause the camera to malfunction.

z

The camera contains precision electronic circuitry. Never attempt to

disassemble the camera yourself.
