This is a normal characteristic of the battery and does not indicate a problem.  
However, if the battery bulges to the point where it will no longer fit into the  
camera, please contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.

its life span. Purchase a new battery.

Formatting Memory Cards  
Before you use a new memory card or one that has been formatted in other  
devices, you should format the card with this camera.

Image is blurred.  
Press the shutter button halfway to focus on the subject, then press fully to shoot (p. 23).  
Shoot the subject within the focusing distance (p. 194).  
Set the [AF-assist Beam] to [On] (p. 157).  
Confirm that functions which you do not intend to use (macro, etc.) are not set.  
Shoot using the focus lock or AF lock (pp. 93, 96).  
Even when you press the shutter button halfway, the AF frame does not  
appear, and the camera does not focus.  
If you center on the light and dark contrasting area of the subject and push the shutter  
button halfway, or repeatedly push the shutter button halfway, the AF frame will appear  
and the camera will focus.  
Subject is too dark.  
Set the flash to h (p. 85).  
Correct the brightness with exposure compensation (p. 8).  
Adjust the image with i-Contrast (pp. 88, 134).  
Use spot metering or AE Lock to shoot (pp. 99, 100).

White dots appear on the image when shooting with the flash.  
Light from the flash has reflected off dust particles or other objects in the air.  
Image appears rough or grainy.  
Shoot with the ISO speed on a lower setting (p. 87).  
Depending on the Shooting mode, when shooting in a high ISO speed the image may  
appear rough or grainy (pp. 69, 70).  
Eyes appear red (p. 102).  
Set the [Red-Eye Lamp] to [On] (p. 157). When shooting with the flash, the lamp (on the  
front of the camera) lights (p. 42), and for approximately 1 second while the camera is  
reducing red-eye, it is not possible to shoot. It is more effective if the subject is looking  
directly at the lamp. Even better results can be obtained by increasing the lighting in  
indoor settings or approaching closer to the subject.  
Correct images with red-eye correction (p. 135).
