Handling Precautions
1. This camera is not resistant to water, and should not be
used outdoors if it is raining or snowing. If it is accidentally
dropped in water, contact an authorized Canon service
facility. Keep the camera out of salt spray and excessive
humidity. If used at the beach, clean it thoroughly afterward
with a dry cloth.
2. Store the camera in a cool, dry, dust-free place. Be sure to
keep the camera out of direct sunlight, and away from “hot
spots” such as the trunk or rear window shelf of a car.
Avoid places where mothballs are used, and use a
desiccant in excessive humidity.
3. Do not attempt to disassemble the camera yourself, since
there is high-voltage circuitry inside.
4. The battery may explode or cause burns if disassembled,
recharged, shorted, exposed to high temperatures, or
disposed of in a fire.
5. Use a blower brush to remove dust and sand from the lens
and inside the camera. Do not apply any fluids to the lens
or body. Take the camera to an authorized Canon service
facility for a more thorough cleaning if necessary.
6. Film passing through X-ray examinations at an airport may
be exposed and ruined even when loaded in the camera.
Request a different method of inspection to avoid damage.
7. Color reproduction may be adversely affected if the film is
left in the camera for a long time. Always develop exposed
film promptly.
The CE Mark is a Directive conformity mark of the
