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 (

=

 15).

 

●

Confirm that the battery pack is inserted facing the correct way (

=

 15).

 

●

Confirm that the memory card cover and battery cover are fully closed (

=

 15, 

=

 17).

 

●

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 cover or battery cover while the camera is on. 
Close the cover, turn the camera on, and then turn it off again (

=

 15, 

=

 17).

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 fitting in the camera, contact a 

Canon Customer Support Help Desk.
