Using an Eye-Fi Card
Before using an Eye-Fi card, always confirm that local use is permitted.
Inserting a prepared Eye-Fi card enables automatic wireless transfer of \
images to a computer or uploading to a photo-sharing website.
Images are transferred by the Eye-Fi card. Refer to the card’s user manual 
or contact the manufacturer for instructions on preparing and using card\
s or 
resolving transfer problems.•	When using an Eye-Fi card, keep the following points in mind.
-
 Cards may continue to transmit radio waves even when [Eye-Fi 
trans.] is set to [Disable] (=  96). Remove the Eye-Fi card before 
entering hospitals, aircraft, or other areas where transmission is 
prohibited.
-
 When troubleshooting image transfer issues, check the card and 
computer settings. For details, refer to the card’s user manual.
-
 Poor Eye-Fi connections may cause image transfer to take a long 
time, and transfer may be interrupted in some cases.
-
 Eye-Fi cards may become hot, due to their transfer functions.
- Battery power will be consumed faster than in normal use.
- Camera operation may become sluggish. To resolve this, try 
setting [Eye-Fi trans.] to [Disable].
Connection status of Eye-Fi cards in the camera can be checked on the 
shooting screen (in regular information display mode) or playback scre\
en (in 
simple information display mode).

status, as needed.
zzPress the  button, choose 
[Eye-Fi Settings] on the [3] tab, and then 
press the  button.
zzChoose [Connection info], and then press

Troubleshooting
If you think there is a problem with the camera, first check the following. 
If the items below do not solve your problem, contact a Canon Customer 
Support Help Desk.
Power
Nothing	happens	when	the	ON/OFF	button	is	pressed.
•	Confirm that the battery pack is charged ( =  10).
•	 Confirm that the battery pack is inserted facing the correct way ( =  11).
•	 Confirm that the memory card/battery cover is fully closed ( =  12).
•	 Dirty battery terminals reduce battery performance. Try cleaning the terminals with a 
cotton swab and reinserting the battery pack a few times.
The	battery	pack	runs	out	of	power	quickly.•	Battery performance decreases at low temperatures. Try warming the battery pack a 
little by putting it in your pocket, for example, ensuring that the term\
inals do not touch 
any metal objects.
•	 If these measures do not help and the battery pack still runs out of pow\
er soon after 
charging, it has reached the end of its life. Purchase a new battery pac\
k.
The	lens	is	not	retracted.•	Do not open the memory card/battery cover while the camera is on. Close \
the cover, 
turn the camera on, and then turn it off again (=  12).
The	battery	pack	is	swollen.•	Battery swelling is normal and does not pose any safety concerns. Howeve\
r, if 
battery swelling prevents the battery pack from fitting in the camera, contact a Canon 
Customer Support Help Desk.

•	 The screen may flicker under fluorescent or LED lighting.
•	 Purplish banding may appear on the screen if you compose a shot that inc\
ludes a 
bright light source.
No	date	stamp	is	added	to	images.•	Configure the [Date Stamp ] (=  33) setting. Note that date stamps are not 
added to images automatically, merely because you have configured the [Date/Time] 
setting (=
  12).
•	 Date stamps are not added in shooting modes ( =  108) in which this setting cannot 
be configured ( =  33).
[h]	flashes	on	the	screen	when	the	shutter	button	is	pressed,	and	shooting	is	not	possible	(=		2 7 ).

•	 Increase the ISO speed (=  49).
•	 Mount the camera on a tripod or take other measures to keep it still.
IXUS 170 IXUS 165•	Set [IS Mode] to [Continuous] (=  58). However, you should set [IS Mode] to [Off] 
when using a tripod or other means to secure the camera ( =  58).

 all the way 
down to shoot (=  20).

utter button 
halfway. Otherwise, try pressing the shutter button halfway repeatedly.
Subjects	in	shots	look	too	dark.•	Set the flash mode to [h] (=  55).
•	 Adjust brightness by using exposure compensation ( =  47).

White	dots	or	similar	image	artifacts	appear	in	flash	shots.•	This is caused by light from the flash reflecting off dust or airborne particles.
Shots	look	grainy.•	Lower the ISO speed (=  49).
•	 High ISO speeds in some shooting modes may cause grainy images ( =  49).
Subjects	are	affected	by	red-eye	(=		3 5 ).•	Set [Lamp Setting] to [On] ( =  37) to activate the red-eye reduction lamp ( =  3) 
in flash shots. Note that while the red-eye reduction lamp is on (for about one 
second), it is not possible to shoot, because the lamp is counteracting\
 red-eye. For 
best results, have subjects look at the red-eye reduction lamp. Also try increasing the 
lighting in indoor scenes and shooting at closer range.
•	 Edit images using red-eye correction ( =
  70).
Recording	to	the	memory	card	takes	too	long,	or	continuous	shooting	is	slower.
•	Use the camera to perform low-level formatting of the memory card ( =  76).
