Appendix Battery Handling Battery Charge The following icon and message will display. Battery charge is low. If using the camera for an extended period, replace the batteries as soon as possible. Change the batteries Batteries are fully depleted and the camera can no longer operate. Replace the batteries immediately. Battery Handling Precautions Appendix z This camera uses AA-size alkaline batteries or Canon AAsize NiMH batteries (sold separately).
z Before installing the batteries, wipe the battery terminals well with a dry cloth. If the battery terminals are soiled with oil from one’s skin or other dirt, the number of recordable images may be considerably diminished, or reduced usage time. z At low temperatures, battery performance may be reduced and the low battery icon ( ) may appear earlier than usual. Under these conditions, restore the battery performance by warming it in a pocket immediately before use.
Handling the Memory Card SD memory card or SDHC memory card Write Protect Tab Write Protect Tab Slide the switch up. Writing/Erasing Possible Slide the switch down (you can protect the images and other data on the card) Writing/Erasing Impossible Cautions When Handling Appendix z Memory cards are high-precision electronic devices. Do not bend them, apply force to them, or subject them to shocks or vibration. z Do not attempt to disassemble or alter the memory card.
Formatting z Please note that formatting (initializing) an memory card erases all data, including protected images. z You are recommended to use memory cards that have been formatted in your camera. • The card supplied with the camera may be used without further formatting. • When the camera is malfunctioning, a corrupted memory card might be the cause. Reformatting the memory card may solve the problem. • When a non-Canon brand memory card is malfunctioning, reformatting it may solve the problem.
Using the Power Kits (Sold Separately) Using Rechargeable Batteries (Battery and Charger Kit CBK4-300) This kit includes a battery charger and four rechargeable AA-size NiMH (nickel metal hydride) batteries. Charge batteries as shown below. Recharging is also possible using two batteries.
z Wipe the battery terminals well with a dry cloth in the following situations, as the terminals may be soiled with oil from one’s skin or other dirt: - If the battery usage time has considerably diminished - If the number of recordable images has considerably diminished - When charging the batteries (insert and remove the batteries two or three times before charging) - When charging completes in a space of a few minutes (the battery charger indicator remains lit) z You may not be able to fully charge the b
z It takes approximately 4 hours 40 minutes for the charger to fully recharge the batteries after they have been depleted. When two batteries are placed on each side of the charger, recharging will take approximately two hours (as determined by testing at Canon facilities). Charge batteries in an environment where the temperature is in the range of 0 to 35°C (32 to 95°F). z The charging time varies according to the ambient temperature and to the battery charge state.
Using the Lenses (Sold Separately) The camera supports use of the separately sold Wide Converter WC-DC58N, Tele-converter TC-DC58N and Close-up lens 250D (58mm). In order to attach these lenses, you also need to use the separately sold Conversion Lens Adapter LA-DC58G. z When attaching the wide converter, tele-converter or close-up lens be sure to screw it on securely. If they come loose, they may fall from the lens adapter, posing risk of injury from shattered glass.
Close-up lens 250D (58mm) This lens makes taking macro shots easy. In the normal mode, close-up shots can be taken when the distance from the front of the lens to the subject is 18 to 25cm (7.1 to 9.8 in.) at maximum telephoto. Shooting area (during macro mode) Distance from the front of the lens to the subject Shooting area 18 cm (7.1 in.) 36 X 27 mm (1.4 X 1.1 in.

6 Set the lens on the adapter, and turn it in the indicated direction to attach it securely. z Completely remove all dust and dirt from conversion lenses with a lens blower brush before use. The camera may focus on any dirt that remains. z Be careful when handling the lenses since it is easy to get finger prints on them. z Be careful not to drop the camera or adapter when removing the ring. z When using these lens attachments, you should not shoot images in mode.
Using an Externally Mounted Flash (Sold Separately) High-Power Flash HF-DC1 This flash is used to supplement the camera’s built-in flash when the subject is too far away for proper illumination. Use the following procedures to affix the camera and High-Power Flash to the supporting bracket. Please read the instructions accompanying the flash along with this explanation.
z Fasten the attachment screws securely so that they do not loosen. Failure to do so may lead to the dropping of the camera and flash resulting in damage to both. z Before attaching the bracket to the flash, check that the lithium battery (CR123A or DL123) is installed. z To illuminate the subjects properly, install the flash so that it is up against the side of the camera and parallel with the camera’s front panel. z A tripod can be used even when the flash is attached.
Replacing the Date Battery If the Date/Time menu appears when the camera power is turned on, the date battery charge is low and the date and time settings have been lost. Please purchase a lithium coin battery (CR1220) and replace it as follows. Please note that the first date battery may appear to expire relatively quickly after you purchase the camera. This is because it is installed in the camera at the point of manufacture, not when you make the purchase.
5 Remove the battery by pulling it up in the direction indicated by the arrow. (–) Side 6 Insert a new battery with the (–) side facing up. 7 Replace the battery holder and close the memory card slot/battery cover. 8 When the Date/Time menu appears, set the date and time (Basic Guide p. 7). After purchasing the camera and turning on the power for the first time, although the Date/Time menu will appear, you do not need to replace the date battery.
