Sensor Cleaning

o

During sensor cleaning, never set the power switch to <

1

>. This will

cause the shutter to move, which may damage the image sensor or

shutter curtains.

o

The surface of the image sensor is extremely delicate. Clean the sensor with

care.

o

Use a plain blower without any brush attached. A brush can scratch the

sensor.

o

Do not insert the blower tip inside the camera beyond the lens mount. This

may damage the shutter curtains.

o

Never use pressurized air or gas to clean the sensor. Pressurized air may

damage the sensor, and sprayed gas may freeze on the sensor and scratch it.

o

If a smudge that cannot be removed with a blower remains, having the sensor

cleaned by a Canon Service Center is recommended.
