Camera Care This camera is a precision  instrument. Do not drop it or subject it to physical 
shock.
  The camera is not waterproof and ca nnot be used underwater. If you 
accidentally drop the camera into wa ter, promptly consult your nearest 
Canon Service Center. Wipe off any wate r droplets with a dry cloth. If the 
camera has been exposed to  salty air, wipe it with a well-wrung wet cloth.
  Never leave the camera near anything  having a strong magnetic field such 
as a magnet or electric  motor. Also avoid using or  leaving the camera near 
anything emitting strong radio wave s such as a large antenna. Strong 
magnetic fields can cause camera misoperation  or destroy image data.
  Do not leave the camera in  excessive heat such as in a car in direct sunlight. 
High temperatures  can cause the camera to malfunction.
  The camera contains precision electr onic circuitry. Never attempt to 
disassemble the camera yourself.
  Use a blower to blow away  dust on the lens, viewfinder, reflex mirror, and 
focusing screen. Do not use cleaners that contain org anic solvents to clean 
the camera body or lens.  For stubborn dirt, take the camera to the nearest 
Canon Service Center.
  Do not touch the camera’s electrical cont acts with your fingers. This is to 
prevent the contacts from  corroding. Corroded contacts can cause camera 
misoperation.
  If the camera is suddenly  brought in from the cold into a warm room, 
condensation may form on  the camera and internal parts. To prevent 
condensation, first pu t the camera in a sealed plastic bag and let it adjust to 
the warmer temperature before  taking it out of the bag.
  If condensation forms on the camera, do not use the camera. This is to avoid 
damaging the camera. If  there is condensation, remove the lens, card and 
battery from the camera, and wait un til the condensation has evaporated 
before using the camera.
  If the camera will not be  used for an extended period, remove the battery 
and store the camera in a cool, dry, well-ventilated locati on. Even while the 
camera is in storage, pr ess the shutter button a few times once in a while to 
check that the camera is still working.
  Avoid storing the camera where there  are corrosive chemicals such as a 
darkroom or chemical lab.
  If the camera has not been  used for an extended period, test all its functions 
before using it. If  you have not used the  camera for some time or if there is 
an important shoot coming up, have the camera checke d by your Canon 
dealer or check the camera  yourself and make sure it is working properly.
Handling Precautions

Handling Precautions
LCD Monitor Although the LCD monito r is manufactured with very high precision 
technology with over 99.9 9% effective pixels, there might be a few dead 
pixels among the remaini ng 0.01% or less pixels. Dead pixels displaying 
only black or red, etc., are not a malfun ction. They do not affect the images 
recorded.
  If the LCD monitor is left  on for a prolonged period,  screen burn-in may occur 
where you see remnants of  what was displayed. However, this is only 
temporary and will disappear when the camera is left unus ed for a few days.
  In low or high temperatur es, the LCD monitor displa y may seem slow or it 
might look black. It will return to normal at room temperature.
CardsTo protect the card and its reco rded data, note the following:
  Do not drop, bend, or wet the card. Do  not subject it to excessive force, 
physical shock,  or vibration.
  Do not store or use the card near anyt hing having a strong magnetic field 
such as a TV set, speakers , or magnet. Also avoid places prone to having 
static electricity.
  Do not leave the card in direct sunlight or  near a heat source.
  Store the card in a case.
  Do not store the ca rd in hot, dusty, or humid locations.
LensAfter detaching the lens from  the camera, attach the lens 
caps or put down the lens wi th the rear end up to avoid 
scratching the lens surface and electrical contacts.
Cautions During Prolonged UseIf you use continuous shooting, Live  View shooting, or movie shooting for a 
prolonged period, the camera may beco me hot. Although this is not a 
malfunction, holding the ho t camera for a long period can cause slight skin 
burns.
