. This camera is waterproof to a depth of 5 m/16 ft.
underwater, as long as the bottom cover is fully closed. If
used underwater, at the beach, or exposed to salt spray,
sand, or dust, it can be cleaned by holding the body under
gentle running clean tap water. Dry the camera with a
clean dry cloth. Never expose the camera to water when
the bottom cover is not fully closed and latched.
. Store the camera in a cool, dry, dust-free place. Be sure
to keep the camera out of direct sunlight, and away from
“hot spots” such as the trunk or rear window shelf of a car.
Avoid places where mothballs are used, and use a
desiccant in excessive humidity.
. Do not attempt to disassemble the camera yourself, since
there is high-voltage circuitry inside.
. The battery may explode or cause burns if disassembled,
recharged, shorted, exposed to high temperatures, or
disposed of in a fire.
. Use a blower brush to remove dust and sand from the
lens and inside the camera. Do not apply any fluids other
than water to the lens or body. Take the camera to an
authorized Canon service facility for a more thorough
cleaning if necessary.
. Film passing through X-ray examinations at an airport
may be exposed and ruined even when loaded in the
camera. Request a different method of inspection to avoid
damage.
. Color reproduction may be adversely affected if the film is
left in the camera for a long time. Always develop exposed
film promptly, Do not pack film in checked baggage on
airlines, unless it has been both exposed and processed.
. On the bottom cover, in addition to a standard tripod
socket, is a small Inspection Screw. Never turn this screw,
as it will cause leakage. There is no problem securing the
accessories to the camera with the tripod socket (see
pages 12~13).
Canon cannot accept liability for damage to the camera
from water leaks caused by lack of care during use.
Please take good care of your camera.

A Keeping Your Camera Waterproof
You can use this camera to take pictures
underwater at depths of up to 5 m (16.4 ft.).
After you use your camera underwater or in wet
conditions, always check the bottom cover O-ring
and its contact surface. A single grain of sand or
strand of hair can compromise the waterproofing
and cause irreparable damage to the camera.
Contact
1 Check the O-ring.
_ Surface
* Carefully check that the O-
ring, O-ring groove and
contact surface are free
from cracks, warping and
sailing.
* |f there is any soiling on the
O-ring or contact surface,
clean the area thoroughly.
groove
Clean the O-ring.
* Push gently on the O-ring
so that it pops out of its
groove and then remove it.
* Use a moistened cotton
bud to remove any soiling
from the O-ring groove and
contact surface.
Colton bud * Wash the O-ring with clean
(commercially water, wipe off any
available) moisture and fit the O-ring
into its groove.
e Check that the O-ring is
securely inserted into the
groove.
E-6 5
se Do not pull or stretch the O-ring excessively.
» The O-ring is specially treated. Ensure that it does not
come into contact with grease or oil.
* Do not use a sharp or pointed instrument to remove
the O-ring as this could damage it and cause leakage.
* Take particular care to ensure that the O-ring is not
excessively twisted as this will cause leakage.
e |f the O-ring is cut, damaged or distorted, take your
camera to an authorized Canon service facility for a
replacement O-ring (price available on application).
The O-ring should also be replaced two years after
the date the camera was purchased, regardless of
whether the O-ring is damaged. If the camera is
frequently used underwater or in sandy or dusty
locations, the O-ring should be replaced yearly.

the shots). At low temperatures (—10°C/14°F), the
battery capacity is approximately one third of normal
capacity.
E * Use one CR2 lithium battery.

take a supply of spare batteries. The batteries may be
difficult to obtain at your destination.
* |f you take a number of consecutive shots using the

E о
Auto Flash With Red-eye Reduction
Red-eye Reduction Function
When you use the flash to take photos of people in
low-light conditions, their eyes sometimes glow red in
the photograph. This is referred to as the red-eye
effect and is caused by the light of the flash reflecting
off the retina of the eye.
In E AUTO and El modes, the red-eye reduction lamp
lights for approximately 1 second before the flash fires.
This causes the subject's pupils to contract and
thereby minimizes the risk of red-eye.
O When the red-eye reduction lamp lights, shutter release
is delayed for approximately 1 second to heighten the
effectiveness of the lamp. To make the shutter operate
immediately, set the dial to and then take the
picture.
À Important guidelines for using the red-eye
reduction function
1. Because this function is not effective unless the
subject is looking directly at the lamp, attract the
subject's attention so that he or she looks at the
camera.
2. Take the picture from within 2 m (6.6 ft.) of your
subject.
3. The effectiveness of the red-eye reduction function
varies from person to person.
4. Raise the ambient light level as much as possible.
5. Red-eye reduction cannot completely eliminate red-
eye in all instances.

problem can be avoided to some extent at short

and fit the O-ring into its
groove.
* Check that the O-ring is
securely inserted into the
groove.
* Do not pull or stretch the O-ring excessively.
* The O-ring is specially treated. Ensure that it does not
come into contact with grease or oil.
* Do not use a sharp or pointed instrument to remove
