Using an Eye-Fi/FlashAir Card
Before using an Eye-Fi/FlashAir card, always conrm that local
use is permitted.
You can send images from the camera to Wi-Fi compatible
smartphones, tablets, or computers by inserting a FlashAir card in
the camera. Inserting a prepared Eye-Fi card enables automatic
wireless transfer of images to a computer or uploading to a
photo-sharing website.
Images are transferred by the Eye-Fi/FlashAir card. Refer to the
card’s user manual or contact the manufacturer for instructions on
preparing and using cards or resolving transfer problems.
• When using an Eye-Fi/FlashAir card, keep the following
points in mind.
- Cards may continue to emit radio waves even after
[FlashAir] is set to [Off] (=
178) or [Eye-Fi trans.] is set
to [Disable] (=
179). Remove the card before entering
hospitals, aircraft, or other areas where transmission is
prohibited.
- When troubleshooting image transfer issues, check
the card and computer settings. For details, refer to the
card’s user manual.
- Poor network connections may delay or interrupt image
transfer.
- Cards may become hot, due to their transfer functions.
- Battery power will be consumed faster than in normal use.
- Camera operation may become sluggish. To resolve this,
try setting [Eye-Fi trans.] to [Disable].

Troubleshooting
If you think there is a problem with the camera, rst 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.
• Conrm that the battery pack is charged (=
20).
• Conrm that the battery pack is inserted facing the correct way (=
22).
• Conrm that the memory card/battery cover is fully closed (=
23).
• 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.
• 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 (=
23).
The battery pack is swollen.
• Battery swelling is normal and does not pose any safety concerns.
However, if battery swelling prevents the battery pack from tting in the
camera, contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.

Handling Precautions
• The camera is a high-precision electronic device. Avoid
dropping it or subjecting it to strong impact.
• Never bring the camera near magnets, motors, or other devices
that generate strong electromagnetic elds, which may cause
malfunction or erase image data.
• If water droplets or dirt adheres to the camera or screen, wipe
with a dry soft cloth, such as an eyeglass cloth. Do not rub hard
or apply force.
• Never use cleaners containing organic solvents to clean the
camera or screen.
• Use a blower brush to remove dust from the lens. If cleaning is
difcult, contact a Canon Customer Support Help Desk.
• To prevent condensation from forming on the camera after
sudden temperature changes (when the camera is transferred
from cold to warm environments), put the camera in an
airtight, resealable plastic bag and let it gradually adjust to the
temperature before removing it from the bag.
• If condensation does form on the camera, stop using it
immediately. Continuing to use the camera in this state may
damage it. Remove the battery pack and memory card, and
wait until the moisture has evaporated before resuming use.
• Store unused battery packs in a plastic bag or other container.
To maintain battery performance if you will not use the battery
pack for some time, about once a year charge it and then use the
camera until it runs out of power before storing the battery pack.
