General Information
Turning the Calculator On and Off
u(All Clear/On)—Turns on the calculator.
This key also clears the display, all pending
operations, and values in memory or the mode
registers.
The calculator turns off automatically when the
solar cell panel is no longer exposed to light.
Modes
The calculator can operate in three different
modes. Setting the calculator to a particular
mode prepares it to perform special functions.
The available modes are statistics, financial,
and profit margin.
Indicators in the display tell you the calculator's
current mode. STAT displays for statistics, FIN
for financial. No indicator is displayed for profit
margin mode.
2—Changes the calculator to the next
mode in sequence. To set the calculator to a
particular mode, press 2repeatedly until
the appropriate indicator is displayed.
Changing to a new mode clears the contents of
the mode registers.
You can do arithmetic, mathematical, and
percentage operations in any mode.

Second Functions
0(Second Function)—Enables you to
perform the “second” functions that are marked
over some of the keys. To perform a second
function, press 0and then the appropriate
function key.
When you press 0, 2nd appears in the
display until you press another key.
If you press 0and then a key that does not
have a second function, the key performs its
normal function. If you accidentally press 0,
press it again to cancel its effect.
Clearing the Calculator
u(All Clear/On)—Clears the calculator
completely, including the display, all pending
operations, and the memory and mode
registers. Pressing ualso sets the
calculator to floating-decimal format and
financial mode.
-(Clear Entry/Clear)—Clears incorrect
entries, error conditions, the display, or pending
operations. It does not affect the memory, the
mode registers, or the display format.
0b(Clear Mode Registers)—Clears any
values that have been stored in the mode
registers.
Note: Changing to a new mode also clears the
contents of the mode registers.

Arithmetic Operations
Entering Numbers
6- ?(Digits)—Enter digits into the display.
You can enter a maximum of 10 digits and a
decimal point.
A(Decimal Point)—Enters a decimal point.
@(Change Sign)—Changes the sign of the
number in the display. To enter a negative
number, first enter the number as a positive
value and then press @.
Arithmetic Keys
p, o, n, m—Perform the arithmetic
operations of addition, subtraction,
multiplication, and division.
l(Equals)—Completes all pending operations
and displays the result of a calculation.

Correcting Errors
Correcting Entry Errors
-(Clear Entry/Clear)—To clear a numerical
entry, press -once; then enter the correct
number. To clear all pending operations and
begin the calculation again, press -twice.
w(x Exchange y)—Exchanges the values
of x and y. If you enter x and y in the incorrect
order, press wto reverse them. Then
complete the calculation.
v(Backspace)—Removes the last digit or
decimal point from the displayed number if you
have not yet pressed an operation key (p, o,
n, m, etc.). This key is useful for correcting
entry errors without having to clear the display
and start again.
Correcting Immediate Functions
You can often correct an immediate function by
performing the “reverse” operation. For
example, if you press 0]by mistake, you
can correct the operation by pressing 0k.

Display Formats
Floating-Decimal Format
The calculator normally displays numbers in
“standard” floating-decimal format, in which
numbers are displayed in the range
-9,999,999,999 to -0.000000001, 0, or
0.000000001 to 9,999,999,999. If the result of a
calculation is too large or too small to be
displayed in the normal format, it is displayed in
scientific notation. This means the result is
expressed as a base value (mantissa) times 10
raised to a power (exponent). For example, 5.9
12 means 5.9 x 1012.
The calculator is always in floating-decimal
format when you turn it on. By changing the
display format, you can convert a number from
one format to another.
0c(Fixed Decimal)—Enables you to set
the number of decimal places displayed in a
result.
§ To set the number of decimal places, press
0cand then press the appropriate digit
key (6-?).
§ To remove the fixed-decimal setting and
restore floating-decimal format, press 0
cA.
If a result has more than the selected number
of decimal places, the displayed number is
rounded. If a result has fewer than the selected
number of decimal places, trailing 0s are
added.

Memory Operations
The memory can store any numeric value
within the range of the calculator. You can use
the calculator’s memory to store, sum, and
recall a numeric value. You can use the
memory in any mode.
r(Store)—Stores the displayed numeric
value in the memory, replacing any value
previously stored there. When 0 is displayed,
you can clear the memory by pressing r,
thereby storing a zero in memory.
t(Sum)—Adds the displayed numeric value
to the contents of the memory.
To add a series of numbers to the memory, use
rto store the first number (thereby replacing
any previous value). Then use twith the
remaining numbers. Use s0Pto
display the total.
To subtract the displayed value from the value
in memory, press @(to change the sign of the
displayed value) and then press t. Use s
0Pto display the total.
s0P(Recall Memory)—Displays
(recalls) the number stored in memory, without
affecting the contents of the memory.

Math Operations
0\(Reciprocal)—Calculates the
reciprocal of the displayed number, which is the
same as one divided by the number.
0](Square)—Raises the displayed
number to the second power, which is the same
as multiplying the number by itself. The number
can be any value whose square is in the range
of the calculator.
0k(Square Root)—Calculates the square
root of the displayed number. The displayed
number must be positive or zero; otherwise, an
error condition occurs. The result is always
positive.
0H(Universal Power)—Raises any
positive number to any power within the range
of the calculator or calculates any root of any
positive number within the range of the
calculator.
To calculate a power:
1. Enter the number (y) that you want to raise
to a power.
2. Press 0H.
3. Enter the power (x).
4. Press lor any key that completes the
operation.
