Camera Care and Precautions

• A minute amount of battery power is used for the display even when the main

switch is set to B . This does not affect the camera’s shooting capacity (num

ber of film rolls possible per battery).

• Carefully check the camera’s operation after lengthy storage. When the cam

era has not been used for a long time, or before an important trip or shooting

assignment, we recommend having the camera thoroughly tested at a Canon

service center.

2. Liquid Crystal Display information

The LCD panel uses liquid crystal to indicate camera settings. Due to the charac

teristics of the liquid crystal, the display may become difficult to read because of its

life span which varies according to the condition of use. If this occurs, have it

replaced at an authorized Canon service facility. Replacement is at the owner’s

expense in case of out of warranty term.

Liquid crystal may also respond relatively slowly in temperatures below 32°F/0°C. It

may also darken in temperatures of around 140°F/60°C. The LCD panel will return

when the temperature returns to normal.

3. Blinking “ be ” Display

There are two conditions in which the blinking “ be ” will appear in the LCD panel;

(1) when the battery is nearly exhausted or (2) when the camera’s self-test process

detects an internal malfunction. If the blinking “ be ” indicator appears, perform the

following operations:

1. Press the battery check button to check the battery level. If the battery level is

low, replace the battery with a new one.

2. If the indicator shows a sufficient battery level, remove the battery, wipe the bat

tery terminals and reload it.

3. Release the shutter once.

If the “ be ” display stops blinking, the problem is corrected and you can contin

ue using the camera normally, if the blinking does not stop, the camera needs to

be examined by an authorized Canon service facility.
