Handling Precautions LCD Monitor Although the LCD monitor is manufactured with very high precision technology with over 99.99% effective pixels, there might be a few dead pixels among the remaining 0.01% or less pixels. Dead pixels displaying only black or red, etc., are not a malfunction. They do not affect the images recorded. If the LCD monitor is left on for a prolonged period, screen burn-in may occur where you see remnants of what was displayed. However, this is only temporary and will disappear when the camera is left unused for a few days. In low or high temperatures, the LCD monitor display may seem slow or it might look black. It will return to normal at room temperature. Cards To protect the card and its recorded data, note the following: Do not drop, bend, or wet the card. Do not subject it to excessive force, physical shock, or vibration. Do not touch the card's electronic contacts with your fingers or anything metallic. Do not store or use the card near anything having a strong magnetic field such as a TV set, speakers, or magnet. Also avoid places prone to having static electricity. Do not leave the card in direct sunlight or near a heat source. Store the card in a case. Do not store the card in hot, dusty, or humid locations. Lens After detaching the lens from the camera, attach the lens caps or put down the lens with the rear end up to avoid scratching the lens surface and electrical contacts. Contacts Cautions During Prolonged Use If you use continuous shooting, Live View shooting, or movie shooting for a prolonged period, the camera may become hot. Although this is not a malfunction, holding the hot camera for a long period can cause slight skin burns. About smudges adhering to the front of the sensor Besides dust entering the camera from outside, in rare cases lubricant from the camera's internal parts may adhere to the front of the sensor. In case visible spots still remain after the automatic sensor cleaning, having the sensor cleaned by a Canon Service Center is recommended. 15
