Handling Cautions
Camera Care and Storage
• The camera is a precision instrument. Do not drop it or subject it to
physical shock.
• The camera is not waterproof and should not be used in wet
conditions or underwater. If the camera gets wet, take it to your
nearest Canon dealer as soon as possible. If small amounts of
water splash onto the camera, wipe it with a clean dry cloth. If the
camera is exposed to salty air, wipe it thoroughly with a slightly
damp cloth.
• Do not leave the camera in places prone to excessive heat such as
in a car on a sunny day. Excessive heat can cause the camera to
malfunction.
• The camera contains precision electronic circuitry. Never attempt to
disassemble the camera.
• Use only a blower brush to blow away any dust on the lens,
eyepiece, mirror, focusing screen, film compartment, etc. Do not
clean the camera body or lens with any cleaner containing an
organic solvent. For stubborn dirt, consult your nearest Canon
Service Center.
• The shutter curtains are extremely thin. Use only a blower to clean
them. Be careful not to blow air too forcefully on the shutter
curtains. The shutter curtains can be easily deformed or damaged.
Also, when loading and unloading film, be careful not to touch the
shutter curtains.
• Do not touch the electrical contacts with your fingers. Otherwise
corrosion may develop on the contacts, resulting in improper
camera operation.
• If the camera is not to be used for an extended period, remove the
battery. Store the camera in a well-ventilated, cool, dry place.
During the storage period, press the shutter button to release the
shutter a few times once in a while.
•Avoid storing the camera in a laboratory, cabinet, etc., where
corrosive chemicals are present.
