Troubleshooting
If you think there is a problem with the camera, first check the following. If the items below do not solve your problem, contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.
Power
Nothing happens when the power button is pressed.
●● Confirm that the battery pack is charged (=19).
●● Confirm that the battery pack is inserted facing the correct way (=19). ●● Confirm that the memory card/battery cover is fully closed (=19).
●● Dirty battery terminals reduce battery performance. Try cleaning the terminals with a cotton swab and reinserting the battery pack a few times.
The battery pack runs out of power quickly.
●● Battery performance decreases at low temperatures. Try warming the battery pack a little by putting it in your pocket, for example, ensuring that the terminals do not touch any metal objects.
●● Dirty battery terminals reduce battery performance. Try cleaning the terminals with a cotton swab and reinserting the battery pack a few times.
●● If these measures do not help and the battery pack still runs out of power soon after charging, it has reached the end of its life. Purchase a new battery pack.
The lens is not retracted.
●● Do not open the memory card/battery cover while the camera is on. Close the cover, turn the camera on, and then turn it off again (=19).
