• Unplug the battery charger from the power outlet after charging is complete, or
when you are not using it.
• Do not place anything, such as cloth, on top of the battery charger while it is
charging.
Leaving the unit plugged in for a long period of time may cause it to overheat and distort,
resulting in fire.
• Do not place the battery near pets.
Pets biting the battery could cause leakage, overheating or explosion, resulting in fire or
damage.
• Do not sit down with the camera in your pocket.

recorded correctly. Please note that Canon Inc., its subsidiaries and
affiliates, and its distributors are not liable for any consequential damages
arising from any malfunction of a camera or accessory, including memory
cards, that results in the failure of an image to be recorded or to be
recorded in a way that is machine readable.
Images recorded by the camera are intended for personal use. Refrain
from unauthorized recording that infringes on copyright law, and note that
even for personal use, photography may contravene copyright or other
legal rights at some performances or exhibitions, or in some commercial
settings.

Tips on Using Included Accessories
Effective Battery and Charger Use
• Charge the battery on (or immediately before) the day of use
Charged batteries gradually lose their charge, even when they are not used.
IXUS 240 HS
You can easily check the charge state of the battery by
attaching the cover so that S is visible on a charged battery,
and attaching it so that S is not visible on an uncharged
battery.
• Long-term battery storage
After using up all remaining battery power, remove the battery from the camera.
Store the battery with the cover attached. Storing a partially charged battery over
extended periods (about a year) may shorten its life or affect performance.
• Using the battery charger abroad
The charger can be used in areas with 100 – 240 V AC power (50/60 Hz). For
power outlets in a different format, use a commercially available adapter for the
plug. Never use an electrical transformer designed for traveling, which may
damage the battery.

Subjects are affected by red-eye (p. 76).
• Set [Red-Eye Lamp] to [On] (p. 81) to activate the red-eye reduction lamp (p. 4) in flash
shots. Note that while the red-eye reduction lamp is on (for about one second), it is not
possible to shoot, because the lamp is counteracting red-eye. For best results, have
subjects look at the red-eye reduction lamp. Also try increasing the lighting in indoor
scenes and shooting at closer range.
• Edit images using red-eye correction (p. 155).
Recording to the memory card takes too long, or continuous shooting is
slower.

Handling Precautions
•
•
The camera is a high-precision electronic device. Avoid dropping it or
subjecting it to strong impact.
Never bring the camera near magnets, motors, or other devices that
generate strong electromagnetic fields, which may cause malfunction or
erase image data.
•
•
•
•
If water droplets or dirt adheres to the camera or screen, wipe with a dry
soft cloth, such as an eyeglass cloth. Do not rub hard or apply force.
Never use cleaners containing organic solvents to clean the camera or
screen.
Use a blower brush to remove dust from the lens. If cleaning is difficult,
contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.
To prevent condensation from forming on the camera after sudden
temperature changes (when the camera is transferred from cold to warm
environments), put the camera in an airtight, resealable plastic bag and let
it gradually adjust to the temperature before removing it from the bag.
If condensation does form on the camera, stop using it immediately.
Continuing to use the camera in this state may damage it. Remove the
battery and memory card, and wait until the moisture has evaporated
before resuming use.
