Canon Digital Ixus 310 Hs User Guide

							
191
•This camera is a high-precision electronic device. Do not drop it or subject 
it to strong impacts.
• Never place the camera close to magnets, motors or other devices that 
generate strong electromagnetic fields. Exposure to strong magnetic fields 
may cause malfunctions or corrupt image data.
• If water droplets or dirt become stuck on the camera or screen, wipe with 
a dry soft cloth or eyeglass wiper. Do not rub or apply force.
• Never use cleaners containing organic solvents to wipe the camera or 
screen.
• Use a commercially available blower brush to remove dust from the lens. 
For stubborn dirt contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk as listed 
in your Warranty System Booklet.
• When you move the camera rapidly from cold to hot temperatures, 
condensation may form on the internal or external surfaces of the camera. 
To avoid condensation, put the camera in an airtight, resealable plastic bag 
and let it adjust to temperature changes slowly before removing it from the 
bag.
• If condensation has formed on the camera, stop using it immediately, as 
continued use may damage the camera. Remove the battery and memory 
card, and wait until the moisture has completely evaporated before 
resuming use.
