the power is cut o, the shutter will close. These may result in
damaging the image sensor and shutter curtains.

The surface of the image sensor is extremely delicate. Clean the sensor
with care.

Use a plain blower without any brush attached. A brush can scratch the
sensor.

Do not insert the blower tip inside the camera beyond the lens mount.
If the power is turned o, the shutter will close and the shutter curtains

Never use pressurized air or gas to clean the sensor. Pressurized air

scratch it.

If a smudge that cannot be removed with a blower remains, having the
sensor cleaned by a Canon Service Center is recommended.
