Some important Don'ts
1)
Do
not
use
or
place
this
unit
near sources
of
high
temperature,
in high
humidity,
in
direct sunlight
or
in
dusty
place
for a long
time.
It
may cause damage
to
the
cabinet
or
functional
failure
of
the
LSI and
other
components,
and re
sult
in
poor
performance.
2)
Do
not
open
the
cabinet.
If
the
unit
is
defective,
please
contact
your
nearest Panasonic
Electronic
Calculator
service cent
er.
3)
Do
not
use
thinner,
benzine
or
alcohol
to
clean
the
cabinet. Please use a
silicon·cloth
or
a
cloth
dampened
with
soap and
water
.
4)
Do
not
keep
the
batteri
es
inserted in
the
unit
so
as
to
prevent
leakage
if it
is
operated
with
AC
power
or
unu
sed
at
all
for a long
time
(one
month
or
so.)·
2. Main functions

14)
Trigonometric
function
key (sin, cos, tan)
Performs sine, cosine and
tangent
calculations.
If
F key is depressed
before
this
key,
inverse
trigonometric
(sin-I x,
COS
-I x,
tan
-I
x)
is
performed.
15)
Common
and
Natural
logarithms
key
(log, In)
Performs
common
and natural
logarithms
calculation.
If F key
is
depressed before
this
key ,
Anti-logarithms
(lOX,
eX)
is
performed.
16)
Square
root key
(..jX)
Performs
square
root
calculation.
If F key
is
depressed
before this
key,
square
calculation
(X2 ) is
performed
.
17)
l/x
key
(l/x)
Performs rec
iprocal
calculation.
If F key
is
depressed
before
this
key, performs
entr
y
- 8 -
of
Pi
(3.1415926).
18)
X-M

(X-M)
Exc hanges
the
displayed
number
with
the memory contents.
19) y
to
the xth
pow
er
key(yX)
y

the xth
power
calculation
is
performed
if
the
following
operational
sequence is
observed.
That
is
to
enter
number
for
y, depress yX
key,
enter
number
for
x and
depress
=
key. If
F key
is
dep
ress
ed
before
this
key,
exchanges
the
displayed
number
with
the
previous
by
entered
number
to
perform
reciprocal
calculation.
20) Sign change
key
(+/-)
Changes
the
sign
of
ent
ered
the
mantissa
or
the
exponent
number.
If
F key
is
depressed
before
this
key,
performs Degr
ees
-Minutes-Seconds
to Deci mal Degree conversion.
21) Degree/
Gradian
/ Radian
mode switch
Selects Degre

Gradian , Radian
mode
for
trigonometric
or
inverse
trigonometric
operation.

operations
simulate
the
overflow
condition
and call the

6. Automatic constant calculation
Automatic
constant
calculation
can
be
performed
in
all
four
rules and
yX
calculation.
After
calculation
is
completed
with = key
being depressed,
the
function
(+,

or
yX)
and
the
last
operator
number
are
automatically
stored
as a constant
factor.
Same
type
of
calculation
can be
continued
by
entering a new
number
and depressing
the
corresponding
function
key
or = key,
as
shown
in sample
calculations.
7. Automatic repeat calculations
Repeat
calculations
can be
performed
in all
four
rules
and
yX
calculation
by
depressing =
