Handling Precautions
LCD Displays
In time, the camera's LCD panel display and the LCD display in the
viewfinder may fade and become difficult to read. If this happens, have it
replaced (at cost) by a Canon Service Center.
At low temperatures, the LCD display response may become slower. And
at 60˚C or higher temperatures, the display may blacken. In either case,
the display will return to normal at room temperature.
Lithium Batteries
(1) The camera operates on one 2CR5 lithium battery. Check the battery
level in the following cases (page 20):
• After replacing the batteries.
• After not using the camera for an extended period.
• The shutter stops working.
• The camera is being used in a low-temperature environment.
• You will be shooting an important event.
(2) Before installing the batteries, wipe the battery contacts to remove any
fingerprints and smudges. This is to prevent faulty connections and
corrosion.
(3) Never disassemble or recharge the battery. Also, never store a battery
in high-temperature places or short circuit the battery contacts or toss a
battery into a fire.
(4) Although the battery works well even at low temperatures, battery
performance may decline slightly at freezing temperatures. In such a
case, keep a spare battery warm in a pocket, etc., and use and warm
the batteries alternately.
How Low Battery Levels Affect Camera Operation
Even when blinks or not on the LCD panel, a proper exposure will be
obtained as long as the shutter releases. However, when the battery
becomes exhausted, film advance and auto rewind may not work and
may blink on the LCD panel. After the battery is replaced with a new one,
the film advance will resume. Also, pressing the rewind button will resume
the film rewind operation.
Lens Electrical Contacts
After detaching the lens from the camera, put on the
lens caps or put down the lens with the rear end up
to avoid scratching the lens surface and electrical
contacts.
