The following precautions are intended to prevent harm to you and others as well as damage to
equipment. Become familiar with the precautions before using the transmitter to ensure correct
and safe operation.
Be sure that you fully understand the safety precautions contained in the instruction manuals
for the battery, charger, and AC Adapter Kit before using them.
To prevent fire, excessive heat, chemical leakage, or explosion, follow these safety guidelines.
• Do not insert metallic objects between electrical contacts of the transmitter, accessories, or connecting cables.
Do not use the transmitter where there is flammable gas. There is a risk of explosion or fire.
If the transmitter is dropped and internal parts are exposed, do not touch the exposed parts. There is a risk of
electrical shock.
Do not disassemble or modify the transmitter. High-voltage internal parts may cause electrical shock.
Do not store the transmitter in dusty or humid places. There is a risk of fire or electrical shock.
Before using the transmitter on board airplanes or in hospitals, make sure use is permitted. Electromagnetic
waves emitted by the transmitter may interfere with instrumentation or medical equipment.
Do not leave the transmitter inside a vehicle in hot weather or near a heat source. The transmitter may become
hot and cause burns if touched.
Do not cover or wrap the transmitter with a cloth. This may trap heat inside, posing a risk of case deformation or
fire.
Do not use paint thinner, benzene, or other organic solvents to clean the transmitter. This poses a risk of fire and
may be hazardous to your health.
If the product malfunctions, becomes damaged, or requires repair, contact your dealer
or the nearest Canon Service Center.
The transmitter is a precision instrument. Do not drop it or subject it to shock.
The transmitter is not waterproof. Do not use it underwater.
Wipe off any moisture with a clean, dry cloth. If the transmitter has been exposed to salty air,
wipe it with a clean damp cloth after wringing it out to remove excess water.
Never leave the transmitter near any equipment that generates a strong magnetic field,
such as magnets or electric motors.
Do not leave the transmitter in excessive heat, such as in a vehicle in direct sunlight. High
temperature may damage the transmitter.
Do not wipe the transmitter using cleaners containing organic solvents. If the transmitter
becomes difficult to clean, take it to the nearest Canon Service Center.
To avoid corrosion, do not store the transmitter where there are strong chemicals, such as in
darkrooms or chemical labs.
