6 Overview of Calculator Operations
Resetting the Calculator
Because the calculator includes alternative methods that let you clear
data selectively, use reset carefully to avoid losing data needlessly. (See
“Clearing Calculator Entries and Memories” on page 6.)
For example, you might reset the calculator before using it for the first
time, when starting a new calculation, or when having difficulty
operating the calculator and other possible solutions do not work. (See
“In Case of Difficulty”).

Note: If an error condition exists, press P to clear the display before
attempting to reset.
Performing a Hard Reset
You can also reset the calculator by gently inserting a pointed object
(such as an unfolded paper clip or similar object) in the hole marked
RESET in back of the calculator.
Clearing Calculator Entries and Memories
