Precautions
1) This camera
is
not resistant
to
water
and should not be used outdoors
in
snow
or rain.
If
accidentally dropped in water,
contact an authorized Canon service fa-
cility. Keep the camera out of salt spray
and protect it from excessive humi
dity
.
If
used at the beach, clean it thoroughly
afterward with a dry cloth.
2) Do not attempt to disassemble the camera
yourself. Always take it to an authorized
Canon service facility for repair.
3)
Remove the battery if you
do
not expect to
use the camera for about three weeks or
longer.
4) When storing the camera, wrap it
in
a
clean, soft cloth and place it
in
a cool,
dry
,
dust-free place.
Be
sure to keep the
camera out of direct sunlight, and away
from "hot spots"
su~h
as the trunk or rear
window shelf of a car. Avoid places where
moth balls are used, and
in
extreme hu-
midity, use a desiccant.
5) Carefully check the camera's operation
after lengthy storage.
6) The battery may explode or cause burns if
disassembled, recharged, shorted, ex-
posed to high temperatures, or disposed
of
in
fire.
7) Film passing through X-ray examinations
at airports may be exposed and ruined
even if loaded
in
the camera. Request a
hand-checked inspection to avoid dam-
age.
8) Aerosol spray dust removers are not rec-
ommended for the shutter curtain.
9) Condensation is a problem when bringing
cold equipment into a warm room.
If
the
autofocus optics cloud over, accuracy
may be seriously affected. Before entering
a warm room, put equipment
in
a plastic
bag so that condensation forms on the
outside of the bag.
10)
Color reproduction may be adversely af-
fected if film is left
in
the camera for a long
time. Always develop exposed film
promptly.
