Te st Sh o t s

Before you shoot images of subjects of importance to you, we highly recommend that you shoot several

trial images to confirm that you are operating the camera correctly. Please note that Canon, Inc., its

subsidiaries and affiliates, and distributors of its digital cameras are not liable for any consequential

damages arising from any malfunction of a PowerShot camera or CompactFlash™ card (CF card) resulting

in the failure of an image to be recorded or to be recorded in a format that is machine sensible.

Wa rn in g Ag a in st Co p yrig h t In frin g e m e n t

Please note that PowerShot digital cameras are intended for personal use and must be used in a manner

that respects international and domestic copyright laws and regulations. Please be advised that in certain

cases the copying of images from performances, exhibitions, or commercial properties by means of a

camera or other device may contravene copyright or other legal rights even if the image was recorded for

personal use.

Sa fe t y P r e ca u t io n s

• Before using the camera, please ensure that you have read and understood the safety precautions

described below. Always ensure that the camera is operated correctly.

• The safety precautions noted on the following pages are intended to instruct you in the safe and correct

operation of the camera and its accessories to prevent injuries or damage to yourself, other persons and

equipment.

• In the next few pages, the term “equipment” refers primarily to the camera and its power supply

accessories.

W ARNINGS

• Do not aim the camera directly into the sun or at other intense light sources that could injure your

eyesight.

• Do not trigger the flash in close proximity to human or animal eyes. Exposure to the intense light

produced by the flash may injure eyesight. In particular, remain at least one meter (39 inches) away from

infants when using the flash.

• Store this equipment out of the reach of children and infants. Accidental damage to the camera or

batteries by a child could result in serious injury. In addition, placement of the wrist strap around the

child’s neck could result in asphyxiation.

• Be particularly careful to keep the button batteries (CR2016 lithium) used in the camera out of the reach

of children. Seek medical assistance immediately if a child swallows a battery.

• Do not attempt to disassemble or alter any part of the equipment that is not expressly described in this

guide. Disassembly or alteration may result in high-voltage electrical shock. Internal inspections,

alterations and repairs should be conducted by qualified service personnel authorized by your camera

distributor or a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.

• To avoid the risk of high-voltage electrical shock, do not touch the flash portion of the camera if it has

been damaged. Similarly, never touch internal portions of the equipment that become exposed as a

result of damage. There is a risk of high-voltage electrical shock. Please take the first opportunity to

consult your camera distributor or a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.

• Stop operating the equipment immediately if it should emit smoke or noxious fumes. Failure to do so

may result in fire or electrical shock. Immediately turn the camera’s mode dial to the Off position and

remove the camera battery or unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Confirm that smoke or

fume emissions cease. Please consult your camera distributor or the closest Canon Customer Support

Help Desk.

• Stop operating the equipment if it is dropped or the casing is damaged. Failure to do so may result in

fire or electrical shock. Immediately turn the camera’s mode dial to the Off position and remove the

camera battery or unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Please consult your camera

distributor or the closest Canon Customer Support Help Desk.

• Prevent the equipment from contact with, or immersion in, water and other liquids. Do not allow liquids

to enter the interior. The camera has not been waterproofed. If the exterior comes into contact with

liquids or salt air, wipe it dry with a soft, absorbent cloth. In the event that water or other foreign

substances enter the interior, immediately turn the camera’s mode dial to Off and remove the camera

battery or unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Continued use of the equipment may result

in fire or electrical shock. Please consult your camera distributor or the closest Canon Customer Support

• Do not use substances containing alcohol, benzene, thinners or other flammable substances to clean or

maintain the equipment. The use of these substances may lead to fire.

• Do not cut, damage, alter or place heavy items on the power adapter cord. Any of these actions may

cause an electrical short circuit, which may lead to fire or electrical shock. Replace a broken or damaged

power adapter cord.

• Do not handle the power cord if your hands are wet. Handling it with wet hands may lead to electrical

shock. When unplugging the cord, ensure that you hold the rigid portion of the plug. Pulling on the

flexible portion of the cord may damage or expose the wire and insulation, creating the potential for

fires or electrical shocks.

• Use of power sources not expressly recommended for this equipment may lead to overheating,

distortion of the equipment, fire, electrical shock or other hazards. Use only the recommended power

accessories.

• Power down the computer and unplug the power cord before attempting to connect the interface cable

to avoid the risk of electrical shock.

• Do not place the batteries near a heat source or expose them to direct flame or heat. Neither should

you immerse them in water. Such exposure may damage the batteries and lead to the leakage of

corrosive liquids, fire, electrical shock, explosion or serious injury.

• Do not attempt to disassemble, alter or apply heat to the batteries. There is serious risk of injury due to

an explosion. Immediately flush with water any area of the body, including the eyes and mouth, or

clothing, that comes into contact with the inner contents of a battery. If the eyes or mouth contact

these substances, immediately flush with water and seek medical assistance.

P r e ve n t in g M a lfu n ct io n s

Avo id St ro n g Ma g n e t ic Fie ld s

Never place the camera in close proximity to electric motors or other equipment generating strong

electromagnetic fields. Exposure to strong magnetic fields may cause malfunctions or corrupt image data.

Avo id Co n d e n sa t io n Re la t e d Pro b le m s

Moving the equipment rapidly between hot and cold temperatures may cause condensation (water

droplets) to form on its external and internal surfaces. You can avoid this by placing the equipment in an

airtight, resealable plastic bag and letting it adjust to temperature changes slowly before removing it from

the bag.

If Co n d e n sa t io n Fo rm s In sid e t h e Ca m e ra

Stop using the camera immediately if you detect condensation. Continued use may damage the

equipment. Remove the CF card and battery or power cord (if connected) from the camera and wait until

the moisture evaporates completely before resuming use.

Ext e n d e d St o ra g e

When not using the camera for extended periods of time, remove the battery (except the CR2016 lithium

button battery) and store the equipment in a safe place. Storing the camera for extended periods with a

battery installed will run down the battery and may damage the camera.

About CF Cards

CF Cards and Estimated Capacities

• CF cards are high-precision electronic

devices. Do not bend, apply force to, or

subject them to shocks or vibration.

• Do not attempt to disassemble or alter

a CF card.

• Moving a CF card rapidly between

temperature extremes will cause

condensation to form in the card and

may lead to a malfunction. To avoid

condensation, place the CF card into a

sealed plastic bag before moving it into

a different temperature zone and allow

it to adjust slowly to the new

temperature. If condensation forms on

the CF card, put it aside until the water

droplets have evaporated completely.

• Place the CF card in the supplied case

for storage.

• Do not use or store CF cards in the

following types of location.
