    A rare occurrence arising from the effects of aging on one of the electronic components on the surface of the circuit boards may cause a phenomenon known as tracking. Tracking is a phenomenon in which dust and humidity can result in the creation of a weak electrical current in an unintended location, resulting in the creation of a conductive carbon path. While the risk is remote, tracking could result in smoke emission or fire.

    There has been no reported incidence of this nature in the South and Southeast Asia region. Nevertheless, Canon will offer free inspections for any evidence of tracking. Please contact your nearest Canon office/representative below.

    We apologise for any inconvenience caused.
