The following precautions are provided to prevent harm or injury to

yourself and others. Make sure to thoroughly understand and follow

these precautions before using the product.

If you experience any malfunctions, problems, or damage to the

product, contact the nearest Canon Service Center or the dealer

from whom you purchased the product.

Safety Precautions

Warnings: Follow the warnings below. Otherwise, death or

serious injuries may result.

To prevent fire, excessive heat, chemical leakage, explosions, and electrical shock,

follow the safeguards below.

• Do not insert any foreign metallic objects into the electrical contacts of the

equipment, accessories, or connecting cables.

Do not use the equipment where there is flammable gas. There is a risk of explosion

or fire.

If you drop the equipment and the casing breaks open to expose the internal parts,

do not touch the exposed parts. There is a possibility of electrical shock.

Do not disassemble or modify the equipment. High-voltage internal parts may cause

electrical shock.

Do not store the equipment in dusty or humid places. This is to prevent fire or

electrical shock.

Before using the equipment on board airplanes or in hospitals, make sure use is

permitted. Electromagnetic waves emitted by the equipment may interfere with

instrumentation or medical equipment.

Do not hold the camera in the same position for long periods of time. Even if the

camera does not feel too hot, prolonged contact with the same body part may cause

skin redness or blistering due to low-temperature contact burns. Using a tripod is

recommended for people with circulation problems or very sensitive skin, or when

using the camera in very hot places.

Cautions: Follow the cautions below. Otherwise, physical injury

or property damage may result.

Do not leave the equipment in a hot car interior or near high-temperature objects.

The equipment may become hot and cause burns if touched.

Do not leave the product in a low-temperature environment for an extended period of

time. The equipment will become cold and may cause injury when touched.

Do not cover or wrap the transmitter with a cloth. This may trap heat inside, posing a

risk of fire.

Do not use paint thinner, benzene, or other organic solvents to clean the transmitter.

This poses a risk of fire and may be hazardous to your health.

Safety Precautions

The transmitter is a precision instrument. Do not drop it or subject it to

physical shock.

The transmitter is not waterproof. Do not use it underwater.

Wipe off any moisture with a dry and clean cloth. If the transmitter has been

exposed to salty air, wipe it with a clean, well-wrung wet cloth.

Never leave the transmitter near any equipment that generates a strong

magnetic field, such as magnets or electric motors.

Do not leave the transmitter in excessive heat, such as in a vehicle in direct

sunlight. High temperatures may damage the transmitter.

Do not wipe the transmitter using cleaners containing organic solvents. For

stubborn dirt, take it to the nearest Canon Service Center.

Avoid storing the transmitter where there are chemicals that result in rust

and corrosion such as in a chemical lab.
