Cleaning the Image Sensor (CMOS)

The image sensor is like the film in a film-based camera. If any dust or other foreign matter
adheres to the image sensor, it may show up as a dark speck in the images.
To avoid this, follow the procedure below to clean the image sensor. Note that the image
sensor is a very delicate component. If possible, you should have it cleaned by a Canon
Service Center.
While you clean the image sensor, the camera must be turned on. Use the AC Adapter Kit
ACK-E2 (optional accessory, see page 174) or a battery. If you use a battery, make sure the
battery level is sufficient. Before cleaning the image sensor, detach the lens from the
