Turning On The Power - Canon EOS REBEL T7I Basic Instruction Manual

Turning on the Power

If you turn on the power switch and the date/time/zone setting
screen appears, see page 38 to set the date/time/zone.
Automatic Sensor Cleaning
Whenever you set the power switch to <1> or <2>, sensor

cleaning will be performed automatically. (A small sound may be
heard.) During the sensor cleaning, the LCD monitor will display
<f>.
Even during the sensor cleaning, if you press the shutter button

halfway (p.45), cleaning operation will be stopped, and you can take
a picture immediately.
If you repeatedly turn the power switch <1>/<2> at a short

not a malfunction.

period, the power will turn off automatically after the time set under [52:
