BASIC DEFINITIONS
The Keys
To keep your calculator as compact as possible, some keys have
more than one function. You can change the function of a key by
pressing another key first, or by setting the calculator in a certain
mode.
The following pages give you more detailed explanation of each key's
use and function.
2ndF
[SHIFT] Second Function Select Key
Some keys have a second function inscribed above them (for example,
1/x is above x
). To perform this second function, press [SHIFT]. "2F"
2
appears in the display. Then press the key.
Example: To calculate the reciprocal of 5, press [5] [SHIFT] [1/x]. The
display shows 0.2. In this manual, we refer to the key by the desired
function. So, the example would be shown as [5] [SHIFT] [1/x].
