Canon EOS 100 - Manual (Page 13)

Precautions
This camera is not resistant to water and
should not be used outdoors in snow or rain.
If accidentally dropped in water, contact an
authorized Canon service facility. Keep the
camera out of salt spray, and protect it from
excessive humidity. If used at the beach,
clean it thoroughly afterward with a dry cloth.
2) Do not attempt to disassemble the camera
yourself. Always take it to an authorized Can­
on service facility for repair.
3) Remove the battery if you do not expect to
use the camera for about three weeks or
longer.
4) When storing the camera, wrap it in a clean,
soft cloth and place 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 moth balls are used,
and in extreme humidity, use a desiccant.
5) Carefully check the camera’s operation af­
ter lengthy storage.
6) The battery may explode or cause burns if
disassembled, recharged, shorted, exposed
to high temperatures, or disposed of in fire.
