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
When moving the equipment rapidly from cold to hot
temperatures, you can avoid condensation by placing the
equipment in an airtight, resealable plastic bag and letting it
adjust to temperature changes slowly before removing it from
the bag.
If condensation forms on the camera, remove the memory card and
batteries, and set the camera aside in room temperature to allow the
condensation to naturally evaporate before using the camera again.
This camera uses AA-size alkaline batteries or Canon AA-size
NiMH batteries (sold separately).
While it is possible to use AA-size nickel-cadmium batteries,
performance is unreliable and their use is not recommended.
Since the performance of alkaline batteries may differ
according to brand, the operating time of the batteries you
purchase may not be as long as the batteries that came with
the camera.
When using the camera under low temperature conditions or
over long periods, you are recommend to use Canon AA-size
NiMH batteries (sold separately).
Camera operating time may shorten at low temperatures when
alkaline batteries are used. Also due to their specifications, alkaline
batteries may expire faster than NiMH batteries.
