Handling Precautions

•  Be sure to press the 

5

 key before using the calculator.

•  Your  calculator  is  made  up  of  precision  components. 

Never try to take it apart.

•  Avoid dropping your calculator and otherwise subjecting it 

to strong impact.

•  Do not store the calculator or leave it in areas exposed to 

high temperature or humidity, or large amounts of dust. 
When exposed to low temperatures, the calculator may 
require more time to display results and may even fail to 
operate. Correct operation will resume once the calculator 
is brought back to normal temperature.

•  The display will go blank and keys will not operate during 

calculations. When you are operating the keyboard, be 
sure to watch the display to make sure that all your key 
operations are being performed correctly.

•  With certain calculations, it may take some time before the 

result is displayed. The display is blank while a calculation 
is in progress.

•  Avoid using volatile liquids such as thinner or benzine to 

clean the unit. Wipe it with a soft cloth, or with a cloth 
that has been dipped in a solution of water and a neutral 
detergent and wring out.

•  In no event will the manufacturer and its suppliers be liable 

to you or any other person for any damages, expenses, 
lost profits, lost savings, or any other damages arising 
out of malfunction, repairs, or insufficient light. The user 
should prepare physical records of data to protect against 
such data loss.

• Never dispose of the liquid crystal panel, or other 

components by burning them.

• Before assuming malfunction of the unit, be sure to 

carefully reread this manual and ensure that the problem 
is not due to operational error.

•  The contents of this manual are subject to change without 

notice.

•  No  part  of  this  manual  may  be  reproduced  in  any  form 

without the express written consent of the manufacturer.

• Be sure to keep all user documentation handy for future 

reference.
