Safety Precautions

Warning

Denotes the possibility of serious injury or death.

• Do not trigger the flash in close proximity to people’s eyes.

Exposure to the intense light produced by the flash could damage eyesight. In particular,

remain at least 1 meter (39 inches) away from infants when using the flash.

• Store this equipment out of the reach of children and infants.

Strap: Putting the strap around a child’s neck could result in asphyxiation.

• Use only recommended power sources.

• Do not attempt to disassemble, alter or apply heat to the product.

• Avoid dropping or subjecting the product to severe impacts.

• To avoid the risk of injury, do not touch the interior of the product if it has been

dropped or otherwise damaged.

• Stop using the product immediately if it emits smoke, a strange smell, or

otherwise behaves abnormally.

• Do not use organic solvents such as alcohol, benzine, or thinner to clean the

product.

• Do not let the product come into contact with water (e.g. sea water) or other

liquids.

• Do not allow liquids or foreign objects to enter the camera.

This could result in electrical shock or fire.

If liquids or foreign objects come into contact with the camera interior, immediately turn

the camera off and remove the battery.

If the battery charger becomes wet, unplug it from the outlet and consult your camera

distributor or a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.

• Use only the recommended battery.

• Do not place the battery near or in direct flame.

• Unplug the power cord periodically, and using a dry cloth, wipe away any dust

and dirt that has collected on the plug, the exterior of the power outlet, and the

surrounding area.

• Do not handle the power cord with wet hands.

• Do not use the equipment in a manner that exceeds the rated capacity of the

electrical outlet or wiring accessories. Do not use if the power cord or plug are

damaged, or not fully plugged into the outlet.

• Do not allow dirt or metal objects (such as pins or keys) to contact the terminals

or plug.

The battery may explode or leak, resulting in electrical shock or fire. This could cause

injury and damage the surroundings. In the event that a battery leaks and the battery

electrolyte contacts eyes, mouth, skin or clothing, immediately flush with water.

Safety Precautions

5

• Turn the camera off in places where camera use is prohibited.

The electromagnetic waves emitted by the camera may interfere with the operation of

electronic instruments and other devices. Exercise adequate caution when using the

camera in places where use of electronic devices is restricted, such as inside airplanes

and medical facilities.

• Do not play the supplied CD-ROM(s) in any CD player that does not support data

CD-ROMs.

It is possible to suffer hearing loss from listening with headphones to the loud sounds of

a CD-ROM played on an audio CD player (music player). Additionally, this could damage

the speakers.

Caution

Denotes the possibility of injury.

• When holding the camera by the strap, be careful not to bang it, subject it to

strong impacts or shocks, or let it get caught on other objects.

• Be careful not to bump or push strongly on the lens.

This could lead to injury or damage the camera.

• Be careful not to subject the screen to strong impacts.

If the screen cracks, injury may result from the broken fragments.

• When using the flash, be careful not to cover it with your fingers or clothing.

This could result in burns or damage to the flash.

• Avoid using, placing or storing the product in the following places:

- Places subject to strong sunlight

- Places subject to temperatures above 40 °C (104 °F)

- Humid or dusty areas

These could cause leakage, overheating or an explosion of the battery, resulting in

electrical shock, fire, burns or other injuries.

High temperatures may cause deformation of the camera or battery charger casing.

• The slideshow transition effects may cause discomfort when viewed for

prolonged periods.

Caution

Denotes the possibility of damage to the equipment.

• Do not aim the camera at bright light sources (such as the sun on a clear day).

Doing so may damage the image sensor.

• When using the camera on a beach or at a windy location, be careful not to allow

dust or sand to enter the camera.

This may cause the product to malfunction.

Safety Precautions

6

• In regular use, small amounts of smoke may be emitted from the flash.

This is due to the high intensity of the flash burning dust and foreign materials stuck to the

front of the unit. Please use a cotton swab to remove dirt, dust or other foreign matter from

the flash to prevent heat build-up and damage to the unit.

• Remove and store the battery when you are not using the camera.

If the battery is left inside the camera, damage caused by leakage may occur.

• Before you discard the battery, cover the terminals with tape or other insulators.

Contacting other metal materials may lead to fire or explosions.

• Unplug the battery charger from the power outlet after charging is complete, or

when you are not using it.

• Do not place anything, such as cloth on top of the battery charger while it is

charging.

Leaving the unit plugged in for a long period of time may cause it to overheat and distort,

resulting in fire.

• Do not place the battery near pets.

Pets biting the battery could cause leakage, overheating or explosion, resulting in fire or

damage.

• Do not sit down with the camera in your pocket.

Doing so may cause malfunctions or damage the screen.

happens, try shooting in G mode (see Camera User Guide).

• What if white and gray frames appear when you point the camera toward

a subject?

A white frame appears on the face or subject that the camera detected as the

main subject, while gray frames appear on other detected faces. The frames will

follow the subjects within a certain range.

If the subject moves, however, the gray frames will disappear, leaving only the

white frame.

approximately 50 cm – 2.0 m (1.6 – 6.6 ft.) at maximum telephoto (i).

• What if the camera beeps once when the shutter button is pressed

halfway?

Your subject may be too close. When the camera is at maximum wide angle

(j), move about 1 cm (0.4 in.) or more away from your subject and shoot.

Move about 1 m (3.3 ft.) or more away when the camera is at maximum

telephoto (i).

• What if the lamp lights when the shutter button is pressed halfway?

To reduce red-eye and to assist in focusing, the lamp may light when shooting

in low light conditions.

• What if the h icon blinks when you try to shoot?

The flash is charging. You can shoot when recharging ends.
