About this Manual
•The MATH mark indicates an example that uses Math format,
while the LINE mark indicates Linear format. For details about
input/output formats, see “Specifying the Input/Output Format”.
•Keycap markings indicate what a key inputs or what function it
performs.
Example: 1, 2, +, -, !, A, etc.
•Pressing the 1or Skey followed by a second key performs
the alternate function of the second key. The alternate function is
indicated by the text printed above the key.
•The following shows what the different colors of the alternate
function key text mean.
If key marking It means this:
text is this color:
Ye llow Press 1and then the key to access
the applicable function.
Red Press Sand then the key to input the
applicable variable, constant, or symbol.
Purple (or enclosed Enter the CMPLX Mode to access the
in purple brackets) function.
Green (or enclosed Enter the BASE-N Mode to access the
in green brackets) function.
•The following shows an example of how an alternate function
operation is represented in this User’s Guide.
Example: 1s(sin–1)1=
Indicates the function that is accessed by the key
operation (1s) before it. Note that this is not part
of the actual key operation you perform.

Safety Precautions
Be sure to read the following safety precautions before using this
calculator. Keep this manual handy for later reference.
Caution
This symbol is used to indicate information that can result in
personal injury or material damage if ignored.

Handling Precautions
•Be sure to press the Okey before using the calculator for
the first time.
•Even if the calculator is operating normally, replace the battery
at least once every two years.
A dead battery can leak, causing damage to and malfunction of
the calculator. Never leave a 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 of the calculator in areas subjected 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 be exposed to very high temperatures.
Heat can cause discoloration or deformation of the calculator’s
case, and damage to internal circuitry.
•Avoid use and storage of the calculator in areas subjected 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
conditions can damage internal circuitry.
•Never drop the calculator or otherwise subject it to strong
impact.
•Never twist or bend the calculator.
Avoid carrying the calculator in the pocket of your trousers or other
tight-fitting clothing where it might be subjected to twisting or
bending.
•Never try to take the calculator apart.
•Never press the keys of the calculator with a ballpoint pen or
other pointed object.
•Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the calculator.
If the calculator becomes very dirty, wipe it off with a cloth moistened
