AVOID STORING YOUR CAMERA IN THE FOLLOWING PLACES:

·"Hot spots" such as a car trunk, rear window shelf or glove compartment.

·Laboratories or other areas where chemicals may cause corrosion.

·In direct sunlight.

Carefully check the operation of each part after prolonged storage before shooting important events.

Other Notes

1. Liquid Crystal Display

The display panel uses a liquid crystal to display exposure information. After about five years, the display may become hard to read.

The liquid crystal may respond relatively slow in low temperatures about 0°C/32°F and the display may become dark in high temperatures about 60°C/140°F. Regular functioning resumes in temperatures about 20°C/68°F.

Take your camera to the nearest Canon Service Facility for the replacement of the liquid crystal. (Replacement will be at owner's expense.)

2. Blinking "bc" Display

A "bc" appearing with battery check bar marks may blink in the display panel to warn you of battery replacement or camera malfunction. Perform the following operations:

1)Check the battery first.

2)If battery voltage is insufficient, replace the battery.

3)If battery voltage is sufficient, remove the battery from the battery chamber and reinstall it.

4)Release the shutter once.

If the blinking "be" disappears, the camera has returned to normal condition and you can keep shooting. If it does not disappear after repeating these operations several times, there has been a camera malfunction and the camera needs repair. Take the camera to the nearest Canon Service Facility

3. Lithium Battery Pack (1)

This camera uses one, six-volt lithium battery pack (2CR5). Try to make a habit of checking the battery at the following times:

·After loading a new battery

·After prolonged storage

·If the shutter will not release

·Shooting in low temperatures

·Before shooting important events

1)Wipe the battery terminals and the camera contacts with a clean, dry cloth before loading to ensure proper contact.

2)Remove the battery if you do not expect to use the camera for about three weeks or longer.

3)Battery performance deteriorates slightly in temperatures below 0°C/32°F. Keep the camera and a spare battery pack close to your body or in a pocket to keep them warm until you are ready.

Battery may explode or cause burns if disassembled, recharged, shorted or exposed to high temperature or disposed in fire.

4. Lithium Battery Pack (2)

Even if one blinking bar mark or no bar mark appears in the display panel during battery check, exposure will be correct as long as the shutter releases. Automatic wind and rewind, however, may not be possible because of insufficient battery power.

Also, if the camera stops during wind or rewind all the film transport bars start blinking to warn you. Automatic rewind re-starts after new battery pack replacement and pressing the film rewind button.

5. X-ray examinations at Airports

Film passing through X-ray examinations at airports may be exposed and ruined even when loaded. To avoid accidental exposure, tell the inspector to hand-check your camera and film.
