NOTE
If the Home City and Destination City times do not match, it may mean that the Destination
City is in an area that uses summer time. If this is the case, select the Summer time check box, which causes the time in the Destination City to advance one hour.
To ensure correct time readings for Calendar Reminder records, make sure you select the
correct summer time on/off setting for the city.

Using the COPY Key
Tapping the COPY key copies the calculation result on the calculator screen to the clipboard. You can then paste the copied result into any program that supports pasting (Notes, Mail, etc.)
Exiting Calculator
Tap the icon in the upper right corner of the Calculator screen to exit the calculator.
About Calculation Errors
An error indicator appears on the display and further calculation becomes impossible whenever an error occurs.
Any of the following conditions produces an error.
Whenever the number of digits in the mantissa of an intermediate or final result exceeds 12
Whenever the number of digits in the mantissa of a value in calculator memory exceeds 12
digits. In this case, the unit automatically retains the previous value stored.
Division by zero
Attempting to calculate the square root of a negative value
To clear an error
Ta p C to clear an error and continue with the same calculation from the point immediately before the error occurred. To clear the entire calculation and start again, tap AC.
To perform constant calculations
1. On the calculator screen, input the first value of the operation, tap an arithmetic operator key
twice, and then input the second value of the operation.
• You can perform a constant calculation using !, @, #, or $.
The first value you input (the one to the left of the arithmetic operator) is the one that will be
used as the constant.
Tapping an arithmetic operator key twice causes the indicator K to appear on the display to indicate that a constant calculation is being performed.
2. Tap = to display the result of the operation.
Inputting 4 # # 2 = would produce a result of 8.
3. Tap = again to multiply the result by the constant.
Tapping = again with the example shown under step 2 would produce a result of 32 (8 # 4).
Each subsequent tap of = multiplies the last result obtained by the constant. Continuing with
the above example, tapping = would produce the following results: = 128 (32 # 4), = 512 (128 # 4), = 2048 (512 # 4), and so on.
To correct entries during calculations
If you enter a wrong value, tap C to clear the value and then input the correct one.
• If you tap the wrong arithmetic key (!, @, #, or $), simply tap the correct arithmetic key
before inputting anything else.
