the￿battery￿at￿least￿once￿every￿three￿years.￿Dead batteries can leak, causing damage to and malfunction of￿the￿calculator.￿Never￿leave￿the￿dead￿battery￿in￿the calculator.

The battery that comes with this unit discharges slightly during￿shipment￿and￿storage.￿Because￿of￿this,￿it￿may require￿replacement sooner￿than￿the￿normal￿expected battery￿life.

Low￿battery￿power￿can￿cause￿memory￿contents￿to become￿corrupted￿or￿lost￿completely. Always￿keep written￿records￿of￿all￿important￿data.

Avoid use and storage in areas subject to temperature extremes. Very low temperatures can cause slow display response, total failure of the display, and shortening of battery life. Also avoid leaving the calculator in direct sunlight, near a window, near a heater or anywhere else it might become exposed to very high temperature. Heat can cause discoloration or deformation of the calculator’s case, and damage to internal circuitry.

Avoid use and storage in areas subject to large amounts of￿humidity￿and￿dust. Take care never to leave the calculator￿where￿it￿might￿be￿splashed￿by￿water￿or exposed￿to￿large￿amounts￿of￿humidity￿or￿dust.￿Such elements￿can￿damage￿internal￿circuitry.
