NOTE Also, provides helpful information for operation. HANDLING THE PRODUCT WARNING 1. Never allow water to enter or be spilled on the product. Immediately stop using the product if water enters the product. Otherwise, a fire or electric shock hazard may result. 2. Do not stare at the sun or other source of high-intensity light through the lens. Doing so may result in injury to your eyes. CAUTION 1. Do not drop the lens when transporting it or when attaching or detaching it to or from the camera head. The lens may fall, possibly causing injury. 2. Make sure all mountings are tightened securely. If any of these mountings becomes loose, the lens may fall, possibly causing injury. 3. Always grasp the connector itself when connecting or disconnecting the lens cable. Pulling on the cable portion may result in damage to the cable, such as breakage of the conductors. Power leaking from a damaged cable may present a fire or electric shock hazard. 4. Inspect all mountings periodically (about every 6 months to year) to make sure they are securely tightened, and tighten any loose portions. Otherwise, the lens may fall, possibly causing injury. 5. If it becomes necessary to repair this product, or to perform any operations or adjustments not mentioned in this operation manual, contact Canon’s representative or the dealer who originally supplied the lens. NOTE 1. Protect the lens from strong impacts of shocks. Striking or dropping the lens may result in a malfunction. 2. This lens is not completely waterproof, so avoid exposing it directly to rain or snow. When the lens must be used in rain or snow, provisions should be made to prevent the lens from getting wet. 3. Under dusty conditions, the lens should be mounted or dismounted with a cover placed over the mount so as to prevent dust from entering into the interior. 4. Do not bring the lens, kept in a very cold ambient temperature, into a warm room, because the lens may fog on the inside or condensation may occur. In these cases, the lens cannot be used until these problems clear. If the lens must be used under such conditions, countermeasures are recommended. (For instance, before bringing the lens into a warm room, put it in a vinyl bag with an effective desiccant, and then bring it into the room. After the temperature acclimatizes to the same level as the room temperature, take out the lens out of the vinyl bag.) 5. If the lens is to be used in adverse environments, such as in a chemical laden atmosphere, consult with Canon’s representative beforehand.

Be careful not to rub dust across the lens, as the lens surface may be scratched. 2. Periodic inspection A periodic inspection about once a year is recommended. The inspection and maintenance interval depends on the operating conditions, the frequency of use, and the environment. If required, overhaul the lens. STORAGE CAUTION 1. Always attach the lens cap (or hood cap) and the dust cap before storing the lens. Storing the lens without these caps attached may present a fire hazard. (Very bright light, such as sunlight, may be focused by the lens and cause a fire.) NOTE 1. Moisture inside the lens If the lens becomes damp because of use in fog, mist or drizzle, wipe off the moisture with a soft dry cloth and seal the lens together with an efficient desiccant in a vinyl bag to remove moisture which has entered into the interior.
