Appendix A Resetting the Calculator
Warning!
The procedure described here clears all memory contents. Never perform this
operation unless you want to totally clear the memory of the calculator. If you
need the data currently stored in memory, be sure to write it down somewhere
before performing the RESET operation.

3. Press 1(YES) to reset the calculator or 6(NO) to abort the operation
without resetting anything.
4. Press m.
P.11 • If the display appears to dark or dim after you reset the calculator, adjust the tint.

• If the calculator stops operating correctly for some P button
reason, use a thin, pointed object to press the P
button on the back of the calculator. This should
make the RESET screen appear on the display.
Perform the procedure to complete the RESET
operation.
• Pressing the P button while an internal calculation is being performed will
cause all data in memory to be deleted.

Appendix B Power Supply
This unit is powered by fourAAA-size (LR03 (AM4) or R03 (UM-4)) batteries. In
addition, it uses a single CR2032 lithium battery as a back up power supply for the
memory.
If the following message appears on the display, immediately stop using the
calculator and replace batteries.
If you try to continue using the calculator, it will automatically turn power off, in
order to protect memory contents. You will not be able to turn power back on until
you replace batteries.
Be sure to replace the main batteries at least once every two years, no matter how
much you use the calculator during that time.
Warning!
If you remove both the main power supply and the memory back up batteries at
the same time, all memory contents will be erased. If you do remove both
batteries, correctly reload them and then perform the reset operation.

kReplacing Batteries
Precautions:
Incorrectly using batteries can cause them to burst or leak, possibly damaging the
interior of the unit. Note the following precautions:
• Be sure that the positive (+) and negative (–) poles of each battery are facing in
the proper directions.
• Never mix batteries of different types.
• Never mix old batteries and new ones.
• Never leave dead batteries in the battery
compartment.
• Remove the batteries if you do not plan
to use the unit for long periods.
• Never try to recharge the batteries
supplied with the unit.
• Do not expose batteries to direct heat,
let them become shorted, or try to take
them apart.
(Should a battery leak, clean out the battery compartment of the unit immedi-
ately, taking care to avoid letting the battery fluid come into direct contact with
your skin.)

Power Supply Appendix B
Keep batteries out of the reach of small children. If swallowed, consult with a
physician immediately.

uTo replace the main power supply batteries
* Never remove the main power supply and the memory back up batteries
from the unit at the same time.
* Never turn the calculator on while the main power supply batteries are
removed from the calculator or not loaded correctly. Doing so can cause
memory data to be deleted and malfunction of the calculator. If mishandling
of batteries causes such problems, correctly load batteries and then perform
the RESET operation to resume normal operation.
* Be sure to replace all four batteries with new ones.
1. Press !O to turn the calculator off.
Warning!
* Be sure to turn the unit off before replacing batteries. Replacing batteries with
power on will cause data in memory to be deleted.
2. Making sure that you do not accidently press the okey, slide the case onto
the calculator and then turn the calculator over.
3. Slide the back cover from the unit by pulling with your
finger at the point marked 1.
4. Remove the four old batteries.
5. Load a new set of four batteries, making sure that
their positive (+) and negative (–) ends are facing in
the proper directions.
6. Replace the back cover.
7. Turn the calculator front side up and slide off its case.
Next, press oto turn on power.

Appendix B Power Supply
• Power supplied by memory back up battery while the main power supply
batteries are removed for replacement retains memory contents.
• Do not leave the unit without main power supply batteries loaded for long
periods. Doing so can cause deletion of data stored in memory.
• If the figures on the display appear too light and hard to see after you turn on
power, adjust the tint.

uTo replace the memory back up battery
* Before replacing the memory back up battery, turn on the unit and check to
see if the “Low battery!” message appears on the display. If it does, replace
the main power supply batteries before replacing the back up power supply
battery.
* Never remove the main power supply and the memory back up batteries
from the unit at the same time.
* Be sure to replace the back up power supply battery at least once 2 years,
regardless of how much you use the unit during that time. Failure to do so
can cause data in memory to be deleted.
1. Press !O to turn the calculator off.
Warning!
* Be sure to turn the unit off before replacing batteries. Replacing batteries with
power on will cause data in memory to be deleted.
2. Making sure that you do not accidently press the okey, slide the case onto
the calculator and then turn the calculator over.
3. Slide the back cover from the unit by pulling with your
finger at the point marked 1.
4. Remove screw ion the back of the calculator, and
remove the back up battery compartment cover.
5. Insert a thin, pointed non-metal object (such as a
tooth pick) into the hole marked jand remove the
old battery.

Battery life
Main:
LR03 (AM4): Approximately 230 hours (continuous display of main menu)
Approximately 2 years (power off)
R03 (UM-4): Approximately 140 hours (continuous display of main menu)
Approximately 2 years (power off)
The ALGBR Mode requires more electrical power than other modes, so extensive
use of the ALGBR Mode shortens battery life.
Back-up: Approximately 2 years
Auto power off:
Power is automatically turned off approximately six minutes after last operation
except when drawing dynamic graphs.
The calculator automatically turns off if it is left for about 60 minutes with a
calculation stopped by an output command (^), which is indicated by the “-Disp-”
message on the display.
