Care and Storage of the Camera No matter how exceptional the camera may be, it will not
give you all it can unless it is taken care of properly. Please make sure to keep the camera
clean all the time. Acquire a blower brush, cleaning liquid, cleaning paper, silicone cloth, etc.
Dust on the lens or the viewfinder should first be blown off with a blower brush and then
wiped lightly with cleaning paper impregnated with cleaning liquid. After the camera has
been used on a beach or near the sea, clean it well because salt can affect its mechanisms. A
blower brush should also be used to clean the mirror box inside the camera body. If it should
require wiping, by all means, please take the camera to a Canon authorized distributor or any
qualified and reliable service centre. The film compartment has to be cleaned with a blower
because it easily collects film dust. If the dust contains sand, the film is easily scratched.
When cleaning the rail surface or the pressure plate, please use cleaning paper and cleaning
liquid. Be careful not to touch the shutter curtain when doing so.
Maintenance Keep the camera in a place with low humidity and no dust (Avoid storing them
in drawer or inside any container that has little ventilation). After removing the camera from
the case, take the battery out. When you are going to store the camera for a long time without
using it, the shutter release button must be activated now and then, to prevent mold and
mechanical trouble. Please avoid storing the camera in places such as mentioned below. 1.
Inside the trunk or rear window of a car because the temperature can rise to an extremely high
degree and this may give rise to trouble in the camera. 2. Places such as laboratories where
chemicals are around may cause rust or corrosion.
Note: When taking off the top cover of the soft case, turn the top cover to the bottom then
slide the cover straight up and pull it out of the hole as shown in the photo.
