• Normally when you replace the calculator’s battery, it stores its current memory contents in
fl ash memory and restores them after battery replacement is complete. If you continue to use
the calculator without replacing the battery after the above message appears, the calculator will
eventually lose its ability to store data to fl ash memory. When this happens, the calculator will not
be able to restore memory contents after battery replacement.

Using the wrong type of battery can result in greatly reduced battery life and calculator
malfunction.

stop using the calculator, turn it off, and replace its battery. You should also regularly replace

remove the battery.
