Environmental Limits

To maintain product reliability, observe the following temperature and humidity limits:

„Operating temperature: 0 to 45 °C (32 to 113 °F).

„Storage temperature: –20 to 65 °C (–4 to 149 °F).

„Operating and storage humidity: 90% relative humidity at 40 °C (104 °F) maximum.

Changing the Batteries

The calculator is powered by two 3-volt lithium coin batteries, CR2032.

Replace the batteries as soon as possible when the low battery annunciator ( ¥) appears. If the battery annunciator is on, and the display dims, you may lose data. If data is lost, the &  message is displayed.
