Handling Precautions

Test Shots

Before you try to photograph important subjects, we highly

recommend that you shoot several trial images to confirm that the

camera is operating and being operated correctly.

Please note that Canon Inc., its subsidiaries and affiliates, and its

distributors are not liable for any consequential damages arising

from any malfunction of a camera or accessory, including memory

cards, that results in the failure of an image to be recorded or to be

recorded in a way that is machine readable.

Warning Against Copyright Infringement

Please note that Canon digital cameras are intended for personal

use and should never be used in a manner that infringes upon or

contravenes international or domestic copyright laws and

regulations. Please be advised that in certain cases the copying of

images from performances, exhibitions, or commercial properties

by means of a camera or other device may contravene copyright or

other legal rights even if the image was shot for personal use.

Warranty Limitations

This camera’s warranty is only effective in the country of sale. If a

problem arises while the camera is in use abroad, please convey it

back to the country of sale before proceeding with a warranty claim

to a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.

For Canon Customer Support contacts, please see the Canon

Limited Warranty supplied with your camera.

Please Read

EC181-CUGBook(Basic-Advanced).book Page 5 Friday, July 8, 2005 4:13 PM

Video Format

Please set the camera's video signal format to the one used in your

region before using it with a TV monitor (p. 89).

Language Setting

Please see the Basic Guide (p. 4) to change the language setting.

Before using the camera, please ensure that you read the safety

precautions described below and in the "Safety Precautions"

section of the Basic Camera User Guide. Always ensure that the

camera is operated correctly.

The safety precautions noted on the following pages are intended

to instruct you in the safe and correct operation of the camera and

its accessories to prevent injuries or damage to yourself, other

persons and equipment. Be sure you fully understand them before

reading the rest of the manual.

Equipment refers to the camera, battery charger or separately

sold compact power adapter.

Battery refers to the battery pack.

Camera Body Temperature

If your camera is used for prolonged periods, the camera body

may become warm. Please be aware of this and take care when

operating the camera for an extended period.

About the LCD Monitor

The LCD monitor is produced with extremely high-precision

manufacturing techniques. More than 99.99% of the pixels

operate to specification. Less than 0.01% of the pixels may

occasionally misfire or appear as red or black dots. This has no

effect on the recorded image and does not constitute a

malfunction.

Safety Precautions
