If the display blanks out, or the calculator will not respond to keystrokes, do the following:
  1. Ensure that the batteries are fresh, are properly installed, and that the battery contacts are not dirty.
  2. Turn the calculator off then back on. If the calculator does not respond. continue on to step 3.
  3. While holding the    key, turn the calculator on. This is a ‘‘master clear’’ and the entire calculator will be cleared. If the calculator does not respond, continue on to step 4.
  4. Remove the batteries and let the continuous memory in the calculator discharge over night. When you reinstall the batteries and turn the calculator on, if the display shows MEMORY LOST, you know that the calculator has been cleared.
  5. If the calculator still does not respond, service is required (refer to Limited One-Year Warranty).
