Notice: Please ensure that you read and follow the handling and safety precautions on
pages 5 to 10 of this guide before attempting to use the camera.
This user guide is for both the PowerShot S10 and PowerShot S20 models. The model shown in this
guide is the PowerShot S20. Unless otherwise noted, the menus and illustrations apply to both the
PowerShot S10 and PowerShot S20 models.
Precautions
Camera Body Temperature
If your camera is used for prolonged periods, the camera body may become warm. This is not a malfunction and
will not affect the camera’s performance or the stored images. Please be aware of this and take care when
operating the camera for an extended period.
About the LCD monitor
The LCD monitor is produced with extremely high-precision manufacturing techniques, with more than 99.99%
of the pixels operating to specifications. Less than 0.01% of the pixels may occasionally misfire or appear as
black, red or green dots. This has no effect on the recorded image and does not constitute a malfunction.
About 2CR5 Lithium Batteries
Please note that using 2CR5 lithium batteries at low temperatures will severely limit their performance. Even
new batteries may only provide power for a few shots. You can obtain more shots if you warm the battery in
your pocket immediately prior to use. When operating the camera at close to 32˚F (0˚C), keep the LCD
monitor off and compose images with the optical viewfinder.
Even if the battery charge appears to be depleted while shooting at low temperature ("Lb" shows in the
display panel), the battery may still retain a charge when used at room temperature.
You are advised to use a power kit (sold separately in some regions), a charged battery pack or an AC adapter
if you will be using the camera frequently at low temperatures, loading images onto a computer or
performing other tasks that require extended operation.
