KEY DEFINITIONS Basic Function Keys +–x ÷= Arithmetic operation keys. 0–9 and • Keys used for entering numbers. % Percent Key — Four-function (+, –, x, ÷) percent key. O Off Key — Turns all power off, clearing all non-permanent registers. o On/Clear Key — Turns on power. Pressing once clears the display. Pressing twice clears all temporary values. Ç Convert Key — Used with the dimensional keys to convert between dimensions or with other keys to access special functions.
Unit Keys y Yards Key — Enters or converts to Yards. f Feet Key — Enters or converts to Feet as whole or decimal numbers. Also used with the i and / keys for entering Feet-Inch values (e.g., 6 f 9 i 1 / 2). Repeated presses during conversions toggle between Fractional and Decimal Feet. i Inch Key — Enters or converts to Inches. Entry can be whole or decimal numbers. Also used with the / key for entering fractional inch values (e.g., 9 i 1 / 2).
(1/2, 1/8, 1/16) or improper (3/2, 9/8). If the denominator (bottom) is not entered, the calculator's fractional accuracy setting is automatically used. m Meters Key — Enters or converts to Meters. c Centimeters Key — Enters or converts to Centimeters. M Millimeters Key — Enters or converts to Millimeters. Ç2 Acres — Enters or converts (a square value) to Acres. b Board Feet Key — Enters or converts Cubic values to Board Feet. One Board Foot is equal to 144 Cubic Inches.
Circle/Arc Keys C Circle Key – Calculates Circle Area and Circumference based on entered Diameter. a Arc Key — Calculates Arc Length or Degree, Chord Length, Segment Area, Pie Slice Area and Segment Rise based on entered Diameter/Radius and Arc Degree or Length (i.e., if Arc Degree is entered, it will calculate Arc Length, and vice versa). Ça Radius — Enters or calculates the circle radius. Miscellaneous Functions B Backspace key ÇB ( Ç÷ (1/x) Reciprocal — Finds the reciprocal of a number (e.g.
Çx Clear All — Returns all stored values to the default settings (does not affect Preference Settings). Ç– (+/–) Toggle Ç+ Pi (π) 3.141593 Ç% x 2 — Squares the value in the display.

To select other formats temporarily (e.g., 1/64ths, 1/32nds, etc.), see the example below: Add 44/64th to 1/64th of an Inch and then convert the answer to other fractional resolutions: KEYSTROKE oo 44/64 +1/64= Ç 1 (1/16) Ç 2 (1/2) Ç 3 (1/32) Ç 4 (1/4) Ç 6 (1/64) Ç 8 (1/8) oo DISPLAY 0.
Default Settings After a Clear All (Ç x), your calculator will return to the following setting: STORED VALUE Weight per Volume DEFAULT VALUE 1.
Auto-Shut Off Your calculator will shut itself off after about 8-12 minutes of non-use. Accuracy/Errors Accuracy/Display Capacity — Your calculator has a twelve-digit display made up of eight digits (normal display) and four fractional digits. You may enter or calculate values up to 19,999,999.99. Each calculation is carried out internally to twelve digits. Errors — When an incorrect entry is made, or the answer is beyond the range of the calculator, it will display the word “ERROR.
(Cont’d) Auto-Range — If an “overflow” is created because of an input and calculation with small units that are out of the standard seven-digit range of the display, the answer will be automatically expressed in the next larger units (instead of showing “ERROR”) — e.g., 20,000,000 mm is shown as 20,000 m. Also applies to inches, feet and yards. Battery This model uses one (1) CR2032 battery (included). Should your calculator display become very dim or erratic, replace the battery.
Replacing the Battery 1) Hold calculator upright with back of calculator toward you. 2) Lift battery holder out. 3) Remove old battery. 4) Place new battery with positive side against the bottom of the holder. 5) Insert holder into calculator with positive side of battery facing back of calculator. Reset If your calculator should ever “lock up,” press Reset — a small hole located toward the lower right-hand corner of the back of the calculator — to perform a total reset.
