Prior to initiating calculations

•Before performing any calculation, press @@^bto clear the memory and the display.

•To start a calculation with a negative number, place a subtraction sign by pressing -at the beginning of the calculation.

•If you wish to correct a wrong entry, press !and re-enter the figure.

•In the calculation examples found in this section, indications and icons that may appear on the screen (‘=’, ‘M+’, ‘M–’, ‘+’, ‘–’, ‘⋅’, and ‘÷’) are abbreviated or are not shown. These icons appear to show you the interim result of calculations. For example, the ‘=’ icon appears on the screen when =or %is pressed, while icons such as ‘M+’ and ‘+’ appear after each corresponding key has been pressed.

•An ‘M’ is shown when a value other than 0 is put in the memory. To clear the content of the memory, press @twice. Note that the pressing of $or # also functions as =.

•Press to enter ‘=’. To input ‘.’ (decimal point), press .

•An error message ‘E’ is displayed if:

•the integer section of a calculation result exceeds 12 digits

•the memory exceeds 12 digits

•an attempt is made to divide a number by zero.
