Memory Mode
Word processing tasks are done in Memory Mode. In this mode, text appears on the display as you type. Text is automatically saved so it can be recalled, reviewed, edited and/or printed. In Mem Mode, 6,700 characters, or approximately 3 pages of double spaced text, can be stored. You can create one file that uses all of the memory or share that memory and create up to eight different files. You can erase files that are no longer needed to make more room in memory.
Rechargeable 60-Day Memory Backup
Your typewriter is equipped with a rechargeable battery that supplies power to preserve your stored memory and format. The battery can preserve memory for a 60-day period under normal conditions. Storing your typewriter in an extremely hot environment (above 100° F) can reduce the battery capacity. When you first use your typewriter after purchase, the 60-day level will not be effective until the typewriter has been on for a total of one hour. To maintain the 60-day memory backup level, your typewriter must be turned on, whether you are typing or not, for a total of one hour every 60-day period.
Memory Remaining
Mem
When there are 400 character spaces remaining in memory, the typewriter beeps three times. The display briefly prompts:
Mem = 400
When memory has no character spaces remaining, the unit beeps 3 times and briefly prompts:
Mem = 0
then text returns to your display. Switch to Type Mode or erase some of your saved files to clear space in memory.
Checking Memory Remaining
You can check remaining memory any time while you are in Mem Mode.
1. Press Code + R and hold. The display prompts:
Mem = xx
(xx is the number of character spaces remaining)
2. Release both keys and the display returns to its prior contents.

Word Wrap & Required Returns
As you enter text into memory, do not press Return at the end of a line unless you need a Required Return at the end of short lines or want to insert blank lines in the text. When you print out your text, it will automatically wrap around to the next line when it reaches the right margin.
For example:
