Handling Precautions Camera Care zz This camera is a precision instrument. Do not drop it or subject it to physical shock. zz The camera is not waterproof and cannot be used underwater. If the camera gets wet, contact a Canon Service Center immediately. Wipe off any water droplets with a clean, dry cloth, and if the camera is exposed to salty air, wipe it off with a clean, well-wrung wet cloth. zz Using the camera in a location with large amounts of dirt or dust may cause a malfunction. zz Cleaning the camera after use is recommended. Allowing dirt, dust, water, or salt to remain on the camera may cause a malfunction. zz 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. zz Do not leave the camera in excessive heat, such as in a car in direct sunlight. High temperatures can cause the camera to malfunction. zz The camera contains precision electronic circuitry. Never attempt to disassemble the camera yourself. zz Do not block the built-in flash or shutter curtain operations with your finger or other objects. Doing so may cause a malfunction. zz Use a commercially available blower brush to remove dust from the lens or other parts. Do not use cleaners that contain organic solvents to clean the camera body or lens. For stubborn dirt, take the camera to the nearest Canon Service Center. zz Do not touch the camera's electrical contacts with your fingers. This is to prevent the contacts from corroding. Corroded contacts can cause camera malfunction. zz If the camera is suddenly brought in from the cold into a warm room, condensation may form on the camera and internal parts. To prevent condensation, first put the camera in a sealed plastic bag and let it adjust to the warmer temperature before taking it out of the bag. 33
