- Use of WLAN is restricted in some countries and regions, and illegal 
use may be punishable under national or local regulations. To avoid 
violating WLAN regulations, visit the Canon website to check where use 
is allowed.
 Note that Canon cannot be held liable for any problems arising from 
WLAN use in other countries and regions.
•	 Doing any of the following may incur legal penalties:
- Altering or modifying the product
- Removing the certification labels from the product
•	 According to foreign exchange and foreign trade law regulations, export \
permission (or service transaction permission) from the Japanese 
government is necessary to export strategic resources or services 
(including this product) outside Japan.
•	 Because this product includes American encryption software, it falls 
under U.S. Export Administration Regulations, and cannot be exported to 
or brought into a country under U.S. trade embargo.

•	 When transferring this product to another person, disposing of it, or 
sending it for repair, be sure to note the wireless LAN settings and reset 
the product to its default settings (erase settings) if necessary.
•	 Canon will not make compensation for loss or theft of the product.
Canon accepts no responsibility for damages incurred due to 
unauthorized access to registered data (image transfer destinations, et\
c.) 
if the product is lost or stolen.
•	 Be sure to use the product as directed in this guide.
Be sure to use the wireless LAN function of this product within the 
guidelines noted in this guide. Canon accepts no responsibility for 
damages or loss if the function and product are used in ways other than \
as described in this guide.
•	 Do not use the wireless LAN function of this product near medical 
equipment or other electronic equipment.
Use of the wireless LAN function near medical equipment or other 
electronic equipment may affect operation of those devices.
Radio Wave Interference Precautions
•	This product may receive interference from other devices that emit radio\
 
waves. To avoid interference, be sure to use this product as far away as 
possible from such devices, or avoid using the devices at the same time \
as this product.
Security Precautions
Because Wi-Fi uses radio waves to transmit signals, security precautions\
 
more stringent than when using a LAN cable are required.
Keep the following points in mind when using Wi-Fi.
•	Only use networks you are authorized to use.
This product searches for Wi-Fi networks in the vicinity and displays th\
e 
results on the screen. Networks you are not authorized to use (unknown \
networks) may also be displayed. However, attempting to connect to or 
using such networks could be regarded as unauthorized access. Be sure 
to use only networks you are authorized to use, and do not attempt to 
connect to other unknown networks.
If security settings have not been properly set, the following problems \
may 
occur.
•	 Transmission monitoring
Third parties with malicious intent may monitor Wi-Fi transmissions and \
attempt to acquire the data you are sending.
•	 Unauthorized network access
Third parties with malicious intent may gain unauthorized access to 
the network you are using to steal, modify, or destroy information. 
Additionally, you could fall victim to other types of unauthorized access 
such as impersonation (where someone assumes an identity to gain 
access to unauthorized information) or springboard attacks (where 
someone gains unauthorized access to your network as a springboard to 
cover their tracks when infiltrating other systems).
To prevent these types of problems from occurring, be sure to thoroughly \
secure your Wi-Fi network.
Only use this camera’s Wi-Fi function with a proper understanding of 
Wi-Fi security, and balance risk and convenience when adjusting security 
settings.
