Safety Precautions
Be sure to read the following safety precautions before
using this calculator. Keep this manual handy for later
reference.
Caution
This symbol is used to indicate information that can
result in personal injury or material damage if ignored.
Batteries
•After removing the battery from the calculator, put it
in a safe place where it will not get into the hands of
small children and accidentally swallowed.
• Keep batteries out of the reach of small children. If
accidentally swallowed, consult with a physician immediately.
• Never charge batteries, try to take batteries apart, or
allow batteries to become shorted. Never expose
batteries to direct heat or dispose of them by incineration.
•Misuse of batteries can cause them to leak and damage nearby items, and can create the risk of fire and
personal injury.
•Always make sure that the battery’s positive

Disposing of the Calculator
• Never dispose of the calculator by burning it. Doing
so can cause certain components to suddenly burst,
creating the risk of fire and personal injury.

• The displays and illustrations (such as key markings)
shown in this User’s Guide are for illustrative purposes
only, and may differ somewhat from the actual items they
represent.
• The contents of this manual are subject to change without notice.
•In no event shall CASIO Computer Co., Ltd. be liable to
anyone for special, collateral, incidental, or consequential
damages in connection with or arising out of the purchase
or use of these materials. Moreover, CASIO Computer
Co., Ltd. shall not be liable for any claim of any kind
whatsoever against the use of these materials by any
other party.
Handling Precautions
• Be sure to press the 5 key before using the calculator for the first time.
• Even if the calculator is operating normally, replace
the battery at least once every three years.
A dead battery can leak, causing damage to and malfunction of the calculator. Never leave a dead battery in
the calculator.
• The battery that comes with this unit discharges
slightly during shipment and storage. Because of
this, it may require replacement sooner than the
normal expected battery life.
• Low battery power can cause memory contents to
become corrupted or lost completely. Always keep
written records of all important data.
•Avoid use and storage in areas subjected to temperature extremes.
Very low temperatures can cause slow display response,
total failure of the display, and shortening of battery life.
Also avoid leaving the calculator in direct sunlight, near
a window, near a heater or anywhere else it might be
exposed to very high temperatures. Heat can cause discoloration or deformation of the calculator’s case, and
damage to internal circuitry.
•Avoid use and storage in areas subjected to large
amounts of humidity and dust.
E-3
Ta ke care never to leave the calculator where it might be
splashed by water or exposed to large amounts of humidity or dust. Such conditions can damage internal circuitry.
• Never drop the calculator or otherwise subject it to
strong impact.
•Never twist or bend the calculator.
Avoid carrying the calculator in the pocket of your trousers or other tight-fitting clothing where it might be subjected to twisting or bending.
• Never try to take the calculator apart.
• Never press the keys of the calculator with a ballpoint pen or other pointed object.
• Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the calculator.
If the calculator becomes very dirty, wipe it off with a
cloth moistened in a weak solution of water and a mild
neutral household detergent. Wring out all excess moisture before wiping the calculator. Never use thinner, benzene or other volatile agents to clean the calculator. Doing so can remove printed markings and can damage
the case.

Two-line Display
The two-line display makes it possible to view
both the calculation formula and its result at
the same time.
• The upper line shows the calculation formula.
• The lower line shows the result.
A separator symbol is displayed every three digits when
the integer part of the mantissa has more than three digits.

k Modes
Before starting a calculation, you must first enter the correct mode as indicated in the table below.

•Pressing the F key more than once displays additional
setup screens. Setup screens are described in the sections of this manual where they are actually used to
change the calculator setup.

•You can input up to 79 steps for a single calculation.
Whenever you input the 73rd step of any calculation,
the cursor changes from “_” to “k” to let you know

79 steps, you should divide your calculation into two or
more parts.

k Exponential Display Formats
This calculator can display up to 10 digits. Larger values
are automatically displayed using exponential notation. In
the case of decimal values, you can select between two
formats that determine at what point exponential notation
is used.

With Norm 2, exponential notation is automatically used
for integer values with more than 10 digits and decimal
values with more than nine decimal places.
•All of the examples in this manual show calculation results using the Norm 1 format.
