How do I reset my Canon Powershot lens error?

Should I remove battery from camera when not in use?

Even during non-use or storage, a charged battery will gradually discharge and lose its power. When not using the camera, remove the battery. If the battery is left in the camera for a prolonged period, a small amount of power current is released, resulting in excess discharge and shorter battery life.

Why is my camera lens jammed?

Usually a stuck lens is caused by dirt getting into the gap between the lens barrel sections. Usually, a middle section rotates as the lens extends, and you can try gently “helping” it. If the lens won’t extend at all, try shaking it out by knocking the front of the camera against your cupped hand as you turn it on.
