Safety Precautions
11
•Turn the camera off in places where camera use is prohibited.
The electromagnetic waves emitted by the camera may interfere with the operation of
electronic instruments and other devices. Exercise adequate caution when using the
camera in places where use of electronic devices is restricted, such as inside airplanes
and medical facilities.
•Do not play the supplied CD-ROM(s) in any CD player that does not support data
CD-ROMs.
It is possible to suffer hearing loss from listening with headphones to the loud sounds of
a CD-ROM played on a music CD player. Additionally, playing the CD-ROM(s) in an audio
CD player (music player) could damage the speakers.
Caution Denotes the possibility of injury.
•Be careful not to bang the camera or subject it to strong impacts or shocks when
hanging it by the strap.
•Be careful not to bump or push strongly on the lens.
This could lead to injury or damage the camera.
•When using the flash, be careful not to cover it with your fingers or clothing.
This could result in burns or damage to the flash.
•Avoid using, placing or storing the product in the following places:
- Places subject to strong sunlight
- Places subject to temperatures above 40 °C (104 °F)
- Humid or dusty areas
These could cause leakage, overheating or an explosion of the battery, resulting in

High temperatures may cause deformation of the camera or battery charger casing.
•The slideshow transition effects may cause discomfort when viewed for
prolonged periods.
Caution Denotes the possibility of damage to the equipment.
•Do not aim the camera at bright light sources (such as the sun on a clear day).
Doing so may damage the image sensor.
•When using the camera on a beach or at a windy location, be careful not to allow
dust or sand to enter the camera.
This may cause the product to malfunction.
•In regular use, small amounts of smoke may be emitted from the flash.
This is due to the high intensity of the flash burning dust and foreign materials stuck to the
front of the unit. Please use a cotton swab to remove dirt, dust or other foreign matter from
the flash to prevent heat build-up and damage to the unit.

Sufficient charge.
Slightly depleted, but sufficient.
(Blinking red) Nearly depleted. Charge the battery.
“Change the battery pack.” Depleted. Recharge the battery.
Using the battery and charger effectively
•Charge the battery on the day, or the day before, it will be used.
Charged batteries continue to discharge naturally even if they are not used.
•How to store the battery for long periods:
Deplete and remove the battery from the camera. Attach the terminal cover and
store the battery. Storing a battery for long periods of time (about a year) without
depleting it may shorten its life span or affect its performance.
•The battery charger can also be used when abroad.
The charger can be used in regions that have 100 – 240 V (50/60 Hz) AC power.
If the plug does not fit the outlet, use a commercially available plug adapter. Do
not use electrical transformers for foreign travel as they will cause damage.
•The battery may develop a bulge.
This is a normal characteristic of the battery and does not indicate a problem.
However, if the battery bulges to the point where it will no longer fit into the
camera, please contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.
•If the battery is quickly depleted even after charging, it has reached the end of
its life span. Purchase a new battery.
Attach the cover to a charged battery so that
the o mark is visible.

•What if white and gray frames appear when you point the camera toward
a subject?
A white frame appears on the face or subject that the camera detected as the
main subject, while gray frames appear on other detected faces. The frames will
follow the subjects within a certain range.
If the subject moves, however, the gray frames will disappear, leaving only the
white frame.
•What if a frame does not appear on the subject you want to shoot?
The subject may not be detected, and frames may appear on the background.
If this happens, try shooting in G mode (p. 83).
•What if a blue frame appears when you press the shutter button halfway?
A blue frame appears when a moving subject is detected; the focus and
exposure will continuously adjust (Servo AF).
•What if a flashing appears?
Attach the camera to a tripod so that the camera does not move and blur the
image.
•What if the image comes out dark even if the flash fired when shooting?
The subject is too far away for the flash to reach. The effective flash range is
approximately 50 cm – 5.0 m (1.6 – 16 ft.) at maximum wide angle (j), and
approximately 50 cm – 2.0 m (1.6 – 6.6 ft.) at maximum telephoto (i).
•What if the camera beeps once when the shutter button is pressed halfway?
Your subject may be too close. When the camera is at maximum wide angle
(j), move about 3 cm (1.2 in.) or more away from your subject and shoot.
Move about 40 cm (1.3 ft.) or more away when the camera is at maximum
telephoto (i).
•What if the lamp lights when the shutter button is pressed halfway?
To reduce red-eye and to assist in focusing, the lamp may light when shooting
in dark areas.
•What if the h icon blinks when you try to shoot?
The flash is charging. You can shoot when recharging ends.
•What if appears when the shutter button is pressed halfway?
When you press the shutter button halfway in extremely bright shooting
conditions, will appear and the brightness will automatically adjust to
appropriate levels.
What if an icon appears in the upper left of the screen?
The icon for the determined scene will appear in the upper left of the screen. For
details on the icons that appear, see “Scene Icons” (p. 188).

Approximate Values for Recording Pixels and Compression
Ratio (for 4:3 Aspect Ratios)
• The values in the table are measured according to Canon standards and may change
depending on the subject, memory card and camera settings.
• The values in the table are based on 4:3 aspect ratio. If the aspect ratio is changed
(p. 90), more images can be shot because the data size per image will be smaller than
with 4:3 images. However, since 16:9 images have a setting of 1920 x 1080 pixels,
their data size will be larger than 4:3 images.
