Handling Precaution s
Camera
Be sure to observe the following precautions to ensure maximum performance.
• Do not use or store the camera in dusty or sandy places. The camera is not waterproof – avoid also water,
mud or salt. If any of the above should get into the camera it may damage the camera and/or the lens. Consult
a Canon Service Center as soon as possible.
• Be careful to avoid dust and dirt particles accumulating on the lens or entering the camera. When you finish
using the camera, make sure to attach the body cap to the lens mount and the lens cap and dust cap to the
lens.
• Do not use the camera near strong electromagnetic fields such as near powerful magnets and motors, MRI
machines or high-voltage power lines. Using the camera in such places may cause anomalies in the video, or
audio/video noise.
• Do not point the camera/viewfinder toward an intense light source, such as the sun on a sunny day or an
intense artificial light source. Doing so may damage the image sensor or the camera’s internal components.
Be especially careful when using a tripod or shoulder strap. When you are not using the camera, make sure to
attach the lens cap to the lens.
• Do not touch the lens contacts on the lens mount. Dirty contacts may cause a poor
contact between the camera and the lens resulting in incorrect operation of the
camera. After removing the lens, make sure to attach the body cap to the lens mount
and the lens cap and dust cap to the lens.
• Do not carry the camera by the LCD monitor or store the camera in a forced position,
without returning the LCD monitor to its correct position. This may damage to the
monitor’s joints.
• Do not apply excessive force when touching the screen. This may cause irregularities in the display quality or
damage to the monitor’s joints.
• Do not apply protective film to the touch screen. The camera features a capacitive touch screen that may stop
working correctly with a protective overlay.
Long-term s torage
If you do not intend to use the camera for a long time, store it in a place free of dust, in low humidity, and at
temperatures not higher than 30 °C (86 °F).
Battery Pack
• Dirty terminals may cause a poor contact between the battery pack and the camera. Wipe the terminals with a
soft dry cloth.
