IMPORTANT-READ
BEFORE USING
YOUR
CALCULATOR
Your
batteries
come
from
the
factory
uncharged.
It is
important
to
the
long
life
of
your
batteries
to
fully
charge
them
before
using
your
calculator
for
the
first
time.
Plug
it
in
to
charge
them.
A
full
charge
takes
about
15
hours.
Shut
the
on/off
switch
off
to
charge
batteries
faster.
Don't
worry
about
overcharging
your
batteries. If
you
leave
it
plugged
in
for
more
than 15
hours
no
harm
will
be
done,
but
it
is
recommended
that
you
do
not
leave
your
calculator
plugged
into
the
charger
for
long
periods
of
time. The
batteries
lose
their
storage
capability
if
not
allowed
to
occasionally
discharge.
LOW
BATTERY: DIM
DISPLAY
OR ERRATIC PRINT
When
the
display
dims
or
erroneous
symbols
or
dots
print,
the
batteries
need
charging.
Do
not
continue
to
use
the
calculator
without
charging
as a
totally
discharged
battery
situation
should
be
avoided
for
longest
use
of
the
batteries.
Charge
them
for
30
minutes
with
the
power
switch
off; then, you may use
it
in
the
non-print
mode
while
the
batteries
finish
charging
...
about
8
hours
of
charging
time
...
while
in use (5 hours
of
charging
time
if
power
switch
is
turned
off).
Charge
your
batteries
for
the
full
15
hours
with
the
on/off
switch
off
if
your
batteries
are in a
totally
discharged
state.
IMPORTANT:
Do
not
operate
your
printing
calculator
w:lhout
paper
because
doing
so
will
possibly
damage
the
printing
mechanism.
PAPER SIZE:
Width
1.5 in. (38mm).
PAPER TYPES: NS038

requiring
the
larger

Other
paper
may
damage
your
printer.
Your
calculator
uses
specially
treated
thermal
paper.
Store
paper
in a
cool,
dark
place. Purchase

back
of
the
calculator.
An
extra tray
to
accommodate
the
larger
core
size
paper
was
included
in
your purchase
of
your
calculator.
2.
Be sure
that
the
paper
unrolls
from
the
bottom
of
the
roll and
not
the top as shown below; otherwise,
no
printing
will
occur.
3.
Insert the
paper
into the
paper
feed path (slot in
back
of
the
calculator). NUdge
the
paper
tape
with
your

paper
advance key. Do
this
until
the

Do
not
stick
long
fingernails

4.
Replace the plastic
paper
tray. If
your
replacement paper i:; the
larger
core
type, use the
larger
plastic
paper
tray included
with
your
calculator.
If
the
Non
Print
switch is set at NP,
printing
will not
occur.
NON-PRINT SWITCH
Put
this
switch in the NP position
to
turn
off
the
printer
and use
only the display. This feature will
allow
you
to
save
paper
when you
have no need
for
atape.
DECIMAL SWITCH
THE FLOATING DECIMAL SETTING IS FOR MAXIMUM DECIMAL
NUMBERS IN THE ANSWER
Set the decimal
switch
at F
for
afloating decimal. A
floating
decimal
system
automatically
puts
the
decimal behind numbers as you key
them
into
the
calculator
until
you press the decimal
point
key • .
When the •is pressed
the
decimal
point
is
fixed
at
that
place and
further
numbers keyed into
the
calculator
during
that
entry are
entered as decimal fractions,
to
the
right
of
the decimal point.
Results are printed with as many decimal places
as
capacity
permits.
Set the decimal at the 2
place
setting and results are printed and
rounded
off
at
two
decimal places.
NUMERAL

MIXED CALCULATIONS
One

The
characteristic
of
your
calculator
which
allows you
to
perform
percentage
of
increase
and
decrease
as
shown
above results
in
invalid key sequences when
performing
mixed
calculations
which
do
not
require inversion
of
the
dividend
and divisor.
REMEMBER THIS RULE: You may mix
addition/subtraction
with
two
factor
multiplication
but
not
with
division. ENTRIES
ON
+
FOLLOWED BY THE KEY SEQUENCES LISTED BELOW CAUSE

+TO
BE
USED AS THE DIVISOR
(NORMALLY THE SECOND NUMBER ENTERED FOR DIVISION).
THE TAPE CLEARLY ILLUSTRATES THIS AS SHOWN IN THE
EXAMPLE THAT FOLLOWS.
