Page 10: Safety Precautions
• Do not attempt to disassemble or alter any part of the equipment that is not expressly described in this guide. Disassembly or alteration may result in high-voltage electrical shock. Internal inspections, alterations and repairs should be conducted by qualified service personnel authorized by your camera distributor or a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.
Page 11 There is a risk of high-voltage electrical shock. Please take the first opportunity to consult your camera distributor or the closest Canon Customer Support Help Desk. • Stop operating the equipment immediately if it emits smoke or noxious fumes.
Page 12 • Do not cut, damage, alter or place heavy items on the power adapter cable. Any of these actions may cause an electrical short circuit, which may lead to fire or electrical shock. • Do not handle the power cable if your hands are wet. Handling it with wet hands may lead to electrical shock.
Page 13 • Use the specified battery charger to charge Battery Pack NB-3L. Use of other chargers may lead to overheating, distortion of the equipment, fire or electrical shock. • Disconnect the battery charger and compact power adapter from both the camera and the power outlet after recharging and when they are not in use to avoid fire and other hazards.
Page 14 Cautions • Avoid using, placing or storing the equipment in places subject to strong sunlight or high temperatures, such as the dashboard or trunk (boot) of a car. Exposure to intense sunlight and heat may cause the batteries to leak, overheat or explode, resulting in fire, burns or other injuries.
Page 15: Preventing Malfunctions
Preventing Malfunctions Avoid Strong Magnetic Fields Never place the camera in close proximity to electric motors or other equipment generating strong electromagnetic fields. Exposure to strong magnetic fields may cause malfunctions or corrupt image data. Avoid Condensation Related Problems Moving the equipment rapidly between hot and cold temperatures may cause condensation (water droplets) to form on its external and internal surfaces.
