11.TECHNICAL DETAILS

11.1 The ACL Function

Computers sometimes “lock up” due to static discharge or other electrical disturbances. If this should happen, use a pin or another sharp object to press into the hole marked ACL in the base of the unit for at least one second. This resets the computer.

11.2 Care and Maintenance

Your computer is a precision electronic device, and should not be subjected to rough handling or exposed to extreme temperatures or moisture. Do not use chemical agents or liquids to clean the unit, as they may damage the plastic. Be sure to remove the batteries before cleaning the unit.

Weak batteries should be replaced promptly, since they can leak and damage the computer. Please also note the following, regarding the use of batteries. Caution: Use only alkaline or zinc carbon batter- ies. Do not mix different types of batteries or new and used batteries. Do not recharge non-rechargeable batteries. Use only recommended batteries or equivalent. Be sure to observe the correct polarity when inserting the batteries. Worn out batteries should be removed from the unit promptly. Do not short circuit the supply terminals.
