z Disconnect the battery charger and compact power adapter
from both the camera and the power outlet after recharging or
when not in use to avoid fire and other hazards.
z Do not place anything, such as tablecloths, carpets, bedding or
cushions, on top of the battery charger while it is charging.
Leaving the units plugged in for a long period of time may cause them
to overheat and distort, resulting in fire.
z
When recharging the Canon AA-size NiMH batteries, use only a
specified battery charger.
z The compact power adapter is designed for exclusive use with
this equipment. Do not use it with other products.
There is a risk of overheating and distortion which could result in fire or
electrical shock.
z
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.
Others
z 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.
z
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.
