Preliminary Notes and Legal
Information
•
•
Take and review some test shots initially to make sure the
images were 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 result 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.

•
The camera warranty is valid only in the area of purchase. In
case of camera problems while abroad, return to the area of
purchase before contacting a Canon Customer Support Help

Although the LCD monitor is produced under extremely high-
precision manufacturing conditions and more than 99.99% of
the pixels meet design specifications, in rare cases some pixels
may be defective or may appear as red or black dots. This does
not indicate camera damage or affect recorded images.
•
•
The LCD monitor may be covered with a thin plastic film for
protection against scratches during shipment. If covered,
remove the film before using the camera.
When the camera is used over an extended period, it may
become warm. This does not indicate damage.

Troubleshooting
If you think there is a problem with the camera, first check the
following. If the items below do not solve your problem, contact a
Canon Customer Support Help Desk.
Power
Nothing happens when the power button is pressed.
• Dirty battery terminals reduce battery performance. Try cleaning the
terminals with a cotton swab and reinserting the battery pack a few times.
The battery pack runs out of power quickly.
• Battery performance decreases at low temperatures. Try warming the
battery pack a little by putting it in your pocket, for example, ensuring that
the terminals do not touch any metal objects.
• If these measures do not help and the battery pack still runs out of power
soon after charging, it has reached the end of its life. Purchase a new
battery pack.
The lens is not retracted.
• Do not open the memory card/battery cover while the camera is on. Close
The battery pack is swollen.
• Battery swelling is normal and does not pose any safety concerns.
However, if battery swelling prevents the battery pack from fitting in the
camera, contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.

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 pack and memory card, and
wait until the moisture has evaporated before resuming use.
Before long-term battery storage, use up the battery pack’s
remaining charge, remove it from the camera, and store it in
a plastic bag or similar container. Storing a partially charged
battery pack over extended periods (about a year) may shorten
its life or affect performance.
