To reset using
keystrokes

To reset using
the reset hole

To erase all
memory and
reset defaults

If the calculator “locks up" and seems to be stuck, you must

reset it. This is much like resetting a PC. It cancels certain

operations, restores certain conditions, and clears temporary

memory locations. However, it does

not

clear stored data

(variables, aplet databases, programs)

unless

you use the

procedure below, “To erase all memory and reset defaults".

Press and hold the |

o n

| key and the top-row left-middle key

(top row, third from left) simultaneously, then release them.

If the calculator does not respond to the above key sequence,

then

1. Turn the calculator over and locate the small hole below

the bump (upper right). Insert the end of a straightened
metal paper clip into the hole until it reaches the bottom.

Hold it there for 1 second, then remove it.

2. Press

|ON|.

If necessary, press |

on

\+top-row,left-middle

key.

If the calculator does not respond to the above resetting

procedures, you might need to restart it by erasing all of

memory.

You will lose everything you have stored.

All factory-

default settings are restored.

1. Press and hold the [

o n

| key, the

leftmost top-row

key, and

the

rightmost top-row

key simultaneously.

2. To

cancel

this process, release

only

the top-row keys, then

press the

left-middle top-row

key.

3. To proceed, release all keys.
