a Safety Precautions
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is
subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not
cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any
interference received, including interference that may cause
undesired operation.
Do not make any changes or modifications to the equipment
unless otherwise specified in the instructions. If such changes or
modifications should be made, you could be required to stop
operation of the equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the
limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
againharmful interference in a residential installation. This
ipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency
eergy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in
a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is
encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of
the following measures:
a Safety Precautions
• Do not look at the sun or a bright light source
through the lens or camera. Doing so could result
in loss of vision. Looking at the sun directly through
the lens is especially hazardous.
• Whether it is attached to the camera or not, do
not leave the lens under the sun without the
lens cap attached. This is to prevent the lens from
concentrating the sun’s rays, which could cause a
fire.
Handling Cautions
• If the lens is taken from a cold environment into
a warm one, condensation may develop on the
lens surface and internal parts. To prevent
condensation in this case, first put the lens into an
airtight plastic bag before taking it from a cold to
warm environment. Then take out the lens after it
has warmed gradually. Do the same when taking
the lens from a warm environment into a cold one.
• Do not leave the lens in excessive heat such as in
a car in direct sunlight. High temperatures can
cause the lens to malfunction.
• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for
help.
This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.

The lens mount has a rubber ring for enhanced
water- and dust-resistance. The rubber ring may
cause slight abrasions around the camera's lens
mount, but this will not cause any problems. If the
rubber ring becomes worn, it is replaceable by a
Canon Service Center at cost.
1. Mounting and Detaching the Lens

mounting and detaching the lens.
¡After detaching the lens, place the lens with the
rear end up to prevent the lens surface and
electrical contacts from getting scratched.
¡If the contacts get soiled, scratched, or have
fingerprints on them, corrosion or faulty
connections can result. The camera and lens
may not operate properly.
¡If the contacts get soiled or have fingerprints on
them, clean them with a soft cloth.
¡If you remove the lens, cover it with the dust

Image Stabilizer
¡The Image Stabilizer cannot compensate
for a blurred shot caused by a subject that
moved.
¡With the EOS-1V/HS, 3, 30/33/Elan7/7E,
30V/33V/Elan7N/7NE, Elan ll/Elan ll
E/50/50 E, 300/Rebel2000, IX, and D30,
the Image Stabilizer will not work during
self-timer operation.
¡Set the STABILIZER switch to
when
you are taking pictures using the Bulb

image stabilizer function may introduce
errors.
¡The Image Stabilizer might not be fully
effective in the following cases:
• You move the camera for a panned shot.
• You shoot while riding on a bumpy road.
¡The Image Stabilizer consumes more
power than normal shooting, so fewer
shots can be taken if you use the function.
¡The image stabilizer operates for about
two seconds even when your finger is off
the shutter button. Do not remove the lens
while the stabilizer is in operation. This will
cause a malfunction.
, the
¡When you use a tripod, the Image
Stabilizer should be turned off to save
battery power.
¡The stabilizer is equally effective for hand-
held photography and photography with a
monopod.
¡The image stabilizer function also
operates when the lens is used with an
Extension Tube EF12 ll or EF25 ll.
¡Pictures may look distorted after being
taken depending on the camera, but this
doesn't affect shooting.
¡
If you set the camera’s Custom Function to
change the assigned button to operate the
AF, the Image Stabilizer will operate when
you press the newly assigned AF button.
