Q:

Sometimes my HP

48

will flash when I turn it on. Is this normal?

A:

This is normal for the HP 48.

Q:

I’m not sure whether the calculator is malfunctioning or if I’m

doing something incorrectly. How can I verify that the calculator is

operating properly?

A:

See “Testing Calculator Operation” on page A-9.

Q:

The

(i*>)

annunciator stays on even when the calculator is turned

off. Is anything wrong?

A:

This indicates a low-battery condition in the calculator or a RAM

card, or an alarm that is past due. To determine what is causing

the (ci) annunciator to stay on, turn the calculator off and then on.
A message in the display will identify the problem. See “When to

Replace Batteries” on page A-4 or “Responding to Alarms” on page
26-4.

Q;

How can I determine how much memory is left in the calculator?

A:

Press fi^fMEMORYl MEM . The number of bytes of available

memory will appear at the lower right corner of the display.

For example, an empty memory for the HP 48GX should show
approximately 127000 bytes of internal RAM (with no RAM cards

installed).
