point pen or similar object, only in the following cases. Do not  
use an object with a breakable or sharp tip. Note that pressing  
the RESET switch erases all data stored in memory.  
Entering and Correcting the Equation  
[Cursor keys]  
In constant calculations, the addend becomes a constant. Sub-  
traction and division are performed in the same manner. For  
multiplication, the multiplicand becomes a constant.  
Press < or > to move the cursor. You can also return to  
the equation after getting an answer by pressing > (<).

In the constants calculations, constants will be displayed as K.  
Functions  
Refer to the calculation examples of each function.  
Before starting calculations, specify the angular unit.  
[Insert mode and Overwrite mode in the Equation display]  
If service should be required on this calculator, use only a SHARP  
servicing dealer, SHARP approved service facility, or SHARP  
repair service where available.  
Pressing @‘ switches between the two editing modes:  
insert mode (default); and overwrite mode. A triangular cursor  
indicates that an entry will be inserted at the cursor, while the  
rectangular cursor indicates to overwrite preexisting data as you  
make entries.  
Differential/Integral Functions  
Differential and integral calculations are only available in the nor-  
mal mode. For calculation conditions such as the x value in differ-  
ential calculation or the initial point in integral calculation, only  
numerical values can be entered and equations such as 22 cannot  
be specified. It is possible to reuse the same equation over and  
over again and to recalculate by only changing the conditions with-  
out re-entering the equation.  
Hard Case  
DISPLAY  
To insert a number in the insert mode, move the cursor to the  
place immediately after where you wish to insert, then make a  
desired entry. In the overwrite mode, data under the cursor will  
be overwritten by the number you enter.  
The mode set will be retained until the next RESET operation.  
Performing a calculation will clear the value in the X memory.  
When performing a differential calculation, enter the formula first and  
then enter the x value in differential calculation and the minute interval  
[Deletion key]

the following equations, correct results may not be obtained, in  
certain rare cases, when performing special calculations that con-  
tain discontinuous points.  
During actual use, not all symbols are displayed at the same time.  
Certain inactive symbols may appear visible when viewed from  
a far off angle.
