Handling Precautions

The camera is a high-precision electronic device. Avoid dropping it or
subjecting it to strong impact.
Never bring the camera near magnets, motors, or other devices that
generate strong electromagnetic elds, which may cause malfunction or
erase image data.
If water droplets or dirt adheres to the camera or screen, wipe with a dry
soft cloth, such as an eyeglass cloth. Do not rub hard or apply force.
Never use cleaners containing organic solvents to clean the camera or
screen.
Use a blower brush to remove dust from the lens. If cleaning is dicult,
contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.
To prevent condensation from forming on the camera after sudden
temperature changes (when the camera is transferred from cold to warm
environments), put the camera in an airtight, resealable plastic bag and
let it gradually adjust to the temperature before removing it from the bag.
If condensation does form on the camera, stop using it immediately.
Continuing to use the camera in this state may damage it. Remove
the battery pack and memory card, and wait until the moisture has
evaporated before resuming use.
Store unused battery packs in a plastic bag or other container. To
maintain battery performance if you will not use the battery pack for some
time, about once a year charge it and then use the camera until it runs
out of power before storing the battery pack.
