 War nings
Equipment
zDo not aim the camera directly into the sun or at other 
intense light sources that could damage your eyesight.
zStore this equipment out of the reach of children and 
infants.
• Wrist strap: Placement of the strap around the child’s neck could 
result in asphyxiation.
• Memory card: Dangerous if accidentally swallowed. If this 
occurs, contact a doctor immediately.
zDo not attempt to disassemble or alter any part of the 
equipment that is not expressly described in this guide.
z
To avoid the risk of high-voltage electrical shock, do not 
touch the flash portion of the camera if it has been damaged.
zStop operating the equipment immediately if it emits smoke 
or noxious fumes.
zDo not allow the equipment to come into contact with, or 
become immersed in, water or other liquids. If the exterior 
comes into contact with liquids or salt air, wipe it dry with a 
soft, absorbent cloth.
Continued use of the equipment may result in fire or electrical 
shock. Immediately turn the camera power off and remove the 
camera battery or unplug the power cord from the power outlet. 
Please consult your camera distributor or the closest Canon 
Customer Support Help Desk.
 
						

							11
zDo not use substances containing alcohol, benzine, 
thinners or other flammable substances to clean or 
maintain the equipment.
z Do not cut, damage, alter or place heavy items on the power 
cord.
z Use only recommended power accessories.
z Remove the power cord on a regular periodic basis and 
wipe away the dust and dirt that collects on the plug, the 
exterior of the power outlet and the surrounding area.
z Do not handle the power cord if your hands are wet.
Continued use of the equipment may result in fire or electrical 
shock.
Batter y
z Do not place the battery near a heat source or expose it to 
direct flame or heat.
z The battery should not be immersed in water or sea water.
z Do not attempt to disassemble, alter or apply heat to the 
battery.
z Avoid dropping or subjecting the battery to severe impacts 
that could damage the casing.
z Use only recommended battery and accessories.
Use of battery not expressly recommended for this equipment 
may cause explosions or leaks, resulting in fire, injury and 
damage to the surroundings. In the event that a battery leaks and 
the eyes, mouth, skin or clothing contact these substances, 
immediately flush with water and seek medical assistance.
z Disconnect the battery charger and compact power adapter 
from the camera or the wireless print adapter and the power 
outlet after recharging or when they are not in use to avoid 
fire and other hazards.
z Do not place anything, such as tablecloths, carpets, 
bedding or cushions, on top of the battery charger while it 
is charging.
Continued use over a long period may cause the units to overheat 
and distort, resulting in fire.
 
						

							12
zUse only the specified battery charger to charge the battery.
z The battery charger and compact power adapter are 
designed for exclusive use with your camera. Do not use it 
with other products or batteries.
There is a risk of overheating and distortion which could result in 
fire or electrical shock.
z Before you discard a battery, cover the terminals with tape 
or other insulators to prevent direct contact with other 
objects.
Contact with the metallic components of other materials in waste 
containers may lead to fire or explosions.
Others
z Do not trigger the flash in close proximity to human or 
animal eyes. Exposure to the intense light produced by the 
flash may damage eyesight.
In particular, remain at least one meter (39 inches) away from 
infants when using the flash.
z Keep objects that are sensitive to magnetic fields (such as 
credit cards) away from the speaker of the camera.
Such items may lose data or stop working.
z If you wish to use a wireless connection inside an aircraft or 
hospital, always follow the instructions of the airline or 
hospital staff.
The camera emits electromagnetic waves which may affect 
instruments, medical devices and other sensitive equipment.
 Cautions
Equipment
z Be careful not to bang the camera or subject it to strong 
impacts or shocks that could lead to injury or damage the 
equipment when wearing or holding it by the strap.
 
						

							13
zDo not store the equipment in humid or dusty areas.
zDo not allow metal objects (such as pins or keys) or dirt to 
contact the charger terminals or plug.
Such conditions could lead to fire, electrical shock or other 
damage.
zAvoid using, placing or storing the equipment in places 
subject to strong sunlight or high temperatures, such as the 
dashboard or trunk (boot) of a car.
zEnsure that the battery charger or the compact power 
adapter are plugged into a power outlet of the specified 
rating, not over the specified rating. Do not use if the power 
cord or plug are damaged, or if not fully plugged into the 
outlet.
zDo not use in locations with poor ventilation.
The above-mentioned can cause leakage, overheating or 
explosion, resulting in fire, burns or other injuries. High 
temperatures may also cause deformation of the casing.
zWhen not using the camera for extended periods of time, 
remove the battery from the camera or battery charger and 
store the equipment in a safe place.
The battery can run down.
zIf the AC adapter kit or battery charger is connected to, for 
example, an electronic transformer for travel abroad, 
trouble with the camera may result, so please do not use 
such a device.
Flash
zDo not operate the flash with dirt, dust or other items stuck 
to the surface of the flash.
zBe careful not to cover the flash with your fingers or 
clothing when shooting.
The flash may be damaged and emit smoke or noise. The 
resulting heat build-up could damage the flash.
zDo not touch the surface of the flash after taking several 
pictures in rapid succession.
Doing so could result in burns.
 
						

							14
Preventing Malfunctions
Avoid Strong Magnetic Fields
zNever place the camera in close proximity to electric motors 
or other equipment generating strong electromagnetic 
fields.
Exposure to strong magnetic fields may cause malfunctions or 
corrupt image data.
Avoid Condensation Related Problems
zWhen moving the equipment rapidly between hot and cold 
temperatures, you can avoid condensation by placing the 
equipment in an airtight, resealable plastic bag and letting it 
adjust to temperature changes slowly before removing it 
from the bag.
Moving the equipment rapidly between hot and cold temperatures 
may cause condensation (water droplets) to form on its external 
and internal surfaces.
If Condensation Forms Inside the Camera
zStop using the camera immediately.
Continued use may damage the equipment. Remove the memory 
card and battery or compact power adapter from the camera and 
wait until the moisture evaporates completely before resuming 
use.
