lens wiper.
Lens First use a lens blower brush to remove dust and dirt,
then remove any remaining dirt by wiping the lens
lightly with a soft cloth.
• Never use synthetic cleansers on the camera body
or lens. If dirt remains, contact the nearest Canon
Customer Support Help Desk (see the back of this
