mechanism.
6) Turn the calculator off before removing the plug from the electrical outlet.
7) Pull the main plug out of the wall socket if you want to switch off the main power
or in case of electrical fault (i.e. smoke), disconnect the plug from the electrical
socket outlet immediately.
8) The AC outlet must be located near the equipment and easily accessible.
9) Under the environment with electrostatic discharge, the sample may
malfunction and require user to reset the sample.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
BACKUP BATTERY
Memory backup battery retains the currency rate, tax rate, calendar and clock
setting, even if the power is off or the AC cord is disconnected.
Battery : 1 Lithium battery (Type : CR2032)
Battery life : Backup time 2000 hours
CAUTION: Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instruction.
Dispose of batteries according to local regulations. Do not dispose
as household waste.
After replace the back-up battery, press the [RESET] button, after resetting be sure
to set the currency rate, tax rate, clock and calendar again.
–Used for designating the decimal point position (+ 0 2 3 4 6 F)
for calculated results.
+ (Add-Mode) –Addition and subtraction functions are performed
with an automatic 2-digit decimal. It is convenient for currency
calculations.
F (Floating Decimal Point) –All effective numbers up to 12 digits
are printed or displayed.

–Used for round-up [ ] , round-off [5/4], or round-down [ ] to
the pre-selected decimal digits in the result.
ROUNDING SWITCH
ITEM COUNT SWITCH
–When the calculations are performed with the GT switch set to
"ON", the total(s) are accumulated in the grand total memory.
Each time is pressed, the subtotal number is printed with the
symbols G+. When is pressed, the intermediate grand total is
printed with the symbols G . Press successively to get the
grand total followed by the symbols G .
–Set switch to "TAX RATE SET" for setting or recalling the TAX rate.
GRAND TOTAL
GRAND TOTAL / TAX RATE SET SWITCH
TAX RATE SET
–At "n+" or "n+/–" position, the calculator counts and print the
number of calculation items up to 999.
< ITEM COUNT >
When the "ITEM" switch is set at "n+", the calculator counts the
number of times the + and – keys are pressed.
When the switch is set at "n+/–, the calculator counts the
number of times the + key is pressed and subtracts from the
total numbers of times the – key is pressed.
< MEMORY ITEM COUNT >
When the "ITEM" switch is set at "n+", the calculator counts
number of times and keys are pressed.
When the switch is set at "n+/–, the calculator counts the
number of times the key is pressed and subtracts from the
total number of times the key is pressed.
< PRINTOUT OF ITEM COUNT >
When the PRINT switch is turned "ON", and the "ITEM" switch is
at the "n+" or "n+/–" position, the number of items recorded by
the counter can print up to three digits on the left-hand side of
the paper by pressing either the key or the key for item
count and key or key for memory item count.

*1Specifying the Number of Decimal Places for Intermediate Local Currency
Amounts.
When you convert from one national currency to another, the calculator
internally converts the original currency to Local currency. This conversion result
is the "intermediate Local currency amount". Next, the intermediate Local
currency amount is converted to the target currency. The flow of the steps of the
conversions will be shown on the printout.
For such a calculation, you should use the following procedure to specify the
number of decimal places for the intermediate Local currency amount. You can
specify from 0 (*2) to 9 decimal places, for a floating decimal point (F). The
intermediate Local currency amount is rounded off to the number of decimal
places you specify.
*20 is displayed when F (floating point) is set for the number of decimal places.
F is the initial default setting.
■ For rates of 1 or greater, you can input up to six digits. For rates less than 1
you can input up to 8 digits, including 0 for the integer digit and leading
zeros (though only six significant digits, counted from the left and starting
with the first non-zero digit, can be specified).

In the following cases, when "E" is displayed, "ERR" is printed, the keyboard
is electronically locked, and further operation is impossible.
Press to clear the overflow. The overflow occurs when:
1. The result or the memory content exceeds 12 digits to the left of the
decimal point.
2. Dividing by "0".
3. The sequential operation speed is faster than the calculation processing
speed. (Buffer Register Overflow)
Electromagnetic interference or electrostatic discharge may cause the
display to malfunction or the memory, currency rate and tax rate to be lost
or altered. Should this occur, use the tip of a ballpoint pen
(or similar sharp object) to press the [RESET] button on
the back of the calculator. After resetting be sure to set
the calendar, clock, currency rate and tax rate again.
