Handling Precautions
• Your calculator is made up of precision components. Never try to take it apart.
• Avoid dropping your calculator and subjecting it to strong impact.
• Do not store the calculator or leave it in areas exposed to high temperatures 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.
• Replace the main batteries once every one year regardless of how much the calculator is used
during that period. Never leave dead batteries in the battery compartment. They can leak and
damage the unit.
• Do not use an oxyride battery* or any other type of nickel-based primary battery with this product.
Incompatibility between such batteries and product specifications can result in shorter battery life
and product malfunction.
• Keep batteries out of the reach of small children. If swallowed, consult a physician immediately.
• Avoid using volatile liquids such as thinner or benzine to clean the unit. Wipe it with a soft, dry
cloth, or with a cloth that has been moistened with a solution of water and a neutral detergent and
wrung out.
• Always be gentle when wiping dust off the display to avoid scratching it.
• 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 loss of data
and/or formulas arising out of malfunction, repairs, or battery replacement. It is up to you to
prepare physical records of data to protect against such data loss.
• Never dispose of batteries, the liquid crystal panel, or other components by burning them.
• Be sure that the power switch is set to OFF when replacing batteries.
• If the calculator is exposed to a strong electrostatic charge, its memory contents may be
damaged or the keys may stop working. In such a case, perform the Reset operation to clear the
memory and restore normal key operation.
• If the calculator stops operating correctly for some reason, use a thin, pointed object to press the
RESTART button on the back of the calculator. Note, however, that this clears all the data in
calculator memory.
• Note that strong vibration or impact during program execution can cause execution to stop or can
damage the calculator’s memory contents.
• Using the calculator near a television or radio can cause interference with TV or radio reception.
• Before assuming malfunction of the unit, be sure to carefully reread this User’s Guide and ensure
that the problem is not due to insufficient battery power, programming or operational errors.

Be sure to keep physical records of all important data!
The large memory capacity of the unit makes it possible to store large amounts of data.
You should note, however, that low battery power or incorrect replacement of the batteries that
power the unit can cause the data stored in memory to be corrupted or even lost entirely. Stored
data can also be affected by strong electrostatic charge or strong impact. It is up to you to keep
back up copies of data to protect against its loss.
Since this calculator employs unused memory as a work area when performing its internal
calculations, an error may occur when there is not enough memory available to perform
calculations. To avoid such problems, it is a good idea to leave 1 or 2 kbytes of memory free
(unused) at all times.

consequential damages in connection with or arising out of the purchase or use of these materials.
Moreover, CASIO Computer Co., Ltd. shall not be liable for any claim of any kind whatsoever
against the use of these materials by any other party.

4. Restart and Reset
S Restart
Should the calculator start to act abnormally, you can restart it by pressing the RESTART
button. Note, however, that you should only use the RESTART button only as a last resort.
Normally, pressing the RESTART button reboots the calculator’s operating system, so
programs, graph functions and other data in calculator memory is retained.
