Handling Precautions

 Do not block the mirror operation with your finger, etc. Doing so may cause a

malfunction.

 Use a blower to blow away dust on the lens, viewfinder, reflex mirror, and

focusing screen. Do not use cleaners that contain organic 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 contacts 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 put 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 until 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 location. Even while the

camera is in storage, press 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 chemicals that result in rust and

corrosion such as in a 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 such as a foreign trip coming up, have the camera

checked by your Canon dealer or check the camera yourself and make sure

it is working properly.
