C A U T I O N

When battery power is low, the ((•)) annunciator stays on,

even when the calculator is off. There is also a warning

message that appears when the calculator is on.

Warning: Low Bat.

The HP 38G uses three AAA batteries.

Be sure all three are of

the same brand and type.

Rechargeable batteries are

not

recommended because of their lower capacity and more

sudden demise.

1. Turn the calculator off and place the slide cover over the

keyboard to keep from pressing keys.

Your calculator can lose memory if it is turned on while

the batteries are being removed.

2. Slide the battery compartment door off the rear of the

calculator by pressing down on the dimple and pushing

the door off.

Replace the batteries within 2 minutes to avoid memory
loss. Position the fresh batteries according to the diagram

inside the battery compartment-it is easiest to install the
flat end of each battery first.

C A U T I O N

Do not mutilate, puncture, or dispose of batteries in fire.

The batteries contain hazardous chemicals and can

explode.
