FRACTION/SCIENTIFIC CALCULATOR

OPERATION MANUAL

MODEL

INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing the SHARP Fraction/Scientific
Calculator Model EL-503W. This calculator will help you
understand mathematical concepts behind fraction
calculation, such as simplification and reduction.
After reading this manual, store it in a convenient location
for future reference.

Operational Notes

• Do not carry the calculator around in your back pocket, as

it may break when you sit down. The display is made of
glass and is particularly fragile.

• Keep the calculator away from extreme heat such as on a

car dashboard or near a heater, and avoid exposing it to
excessively humid or dusty environments.

• Since this product is not waterproof, do not use it or store

it where fluids, for example water, can splash onto it.
Raindrops, water spray, juice, coffee, steam, perspiration,
etc., will also cause malfunction.

• Clean with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use solvents or wet

cloth.

• Do not drop it or apply excessive force.
• Never dispose of battery in a fire.
• Keep battery out of the reach of children.
• This product, including accessories, may change due to

upgrading without prior notice.

SHARP will not be liable nor responsible for any incidental
or consequential economic or property damage caused
by misuse and/or malfunctions of this product and its
peripherals, unless such liability is acknowledged by law.

Press the RESET switch (on the back), with the tip of a
ball-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.
• When using for the first time
• After replacing the battery
• To clear all memory contents
• When an abnormal condition occurs and all keys are

inoperative.

If service should be required on this calculator, use only a
SHARP servicing dealer, SHARP approved service facility,
or SHARP repair service where available.

INITIAL SETUP

Mode Selection

Normal Mode:

Used to perform arithmetic operations and function calcula-
tions. In this mode, 

  and 

  do not appear on the

display.

Statistical Mode:

Used to perform statistical operations. To enter statistical
mode, press 

@”

  appears on the display to

indicate that the statistical mode is selected. To return to
normal mode, press 

@”

  with 

  on the display.

 disappears as the calculator returns to normal mode.

Equation Mode:

Used to solve equations. To enter equation mode, press

  and then 

0

  or 

1

  appears on the

display to indicate that the equation mode is selected. To
return to normal mode, press 

  with 

  on the

display. The calculator returns to normal mode and 

 dis-

appears from the display.

• The mode will remain selected when the calculator is turned

off.

• When executing mode selection, last answer memory will

be cleared.

Scientific (Exponential) Notation

People who need to deal with very large and very small numbers
often use a special format called exponential or scientific
notation.

A number expressed in scientific notation has two parts. The
first part consists of a regular decimal number between 1 and
10. The second part represents how large or small the number
is in powers of 10.

While a calculation result is displayed in the floating point
system, press 

 to display the result in the scientific

notation system. Pressing 

  once again will bring

back the floating point system.

To enter a number in scientific notation, press

This calculator has two memory allocations: independent
memory (M), and last answer memory (ANS). You will find
them especially useful when combinations of calculations
become complicated, or when using the answer of previous
calculation to another operations.

Press

How to Simplify a Fraction

[Reducing to its simplest form]

If the result of pressing

value will be displayed; the function name will not be
displayed.

Statistical Calculation Formulas

In the statistical calculation formulas, an error will occur if:
• the absolute value of the intermediate result or calculation

result is equal to or greater than 1

.

• the denominator is zero.
• an attempt is made to take the square root of a negative

number.

ERROR AND CALCULATION RANGES

Errors

An error will occur if an operation exceeds the calculation
ranges, or if a mathematically illegal operation is attempted. If
an error occurs, pressing 

<

 (or 

>

) automatically moves

the cursor back to the place in the equation where the error
occurred. Edit the equation or press

 

N

 to clear the equation.

Error Codes and Error Types

Syntax error (Error 1):
• An attempt was made to perform an invalid operation.

Ex. 2 

+-

 5 

=

Calculation error (Error 2):
• The absolute value of an intermediate or final calculation

result equals or exceeds 10

100

.

• An attempt was made to divide by 0 (or an intermediate

calculation resulting in 0).

• The calculation ranges were exceeded while performing

calculations.

• The solution of a quadratic equation is a complex number.

Depth error (Error 3):
• The available number of buffers was exceeded. (There are

10 buffers* for numeric values and 24 buffers for calculation
instructions).

* 5 buffers in STAT and EQN mode.

Equation too long (Error 4):
• The equation exceeded the maximum input buffer (159 char-

acters). An equation must be shorter than 159 characters.

Calculation Ranges

Within the ranges specified below, this calculator is
accurate to ±1 of the least significant digit of the
mantissa. However, a calculation error increases in
continuous calculations due to accumulation of each
calculation error. (This is the same for 

y

x

x

¿

¿

¿

¿

¿

ˇˇ

e

x

n!, ln,

mod, etc. where continuous calculations are performed
internally.)

Furthermore, a calculation error will accumulate and
become larger in the vicinity of inflection points and
singular points of functions.

• Calculation range: ±10

–99

 ~ ±9.999999999

×

10

99

 and 0.

If the absolute value of an entry or a final or intermediate
result of a calculation is less than 10

–99

, the value is considered

to be 0 in calculations and in the display.

BATTERY REPLACEMENT

Notes on Battery Replacement

Improper handling of battery can cause electrolyte leakage
or explosion. Be sure to observe the following handling rules:
• Make sure the new battery is the correct type.
• When installing, orient the battery correctly as indicated in

the calculator.

• The factory-installed battery may be exhausted before

they reach the service life stated in the specifications.

When to Replace the Battery

If the display has poor contrast or nothing appears on the
display even when 

N

 is pressed, it is time to replace the

battery.

Caution

• Fluid from a leaking battery accidentally entering an eye

could result in serious injury. Should this occur, wash with
clean water and immediately consult a doctor.

• Should fluid from a leaking battery come into contact with

your skin or clothes, immediately wash with clean water.

• If the product is not to be used for some time, to avoid

damage to the unit from leaking battery, remove it and
store in a safe place.

• Keep battery out of the reach of children.
• Exhausted battery left in the calculator may leak and

damage the calculator.

• Explosion risk may be caused by incorrect handling.
• Do not throw battery into a fire as they may explode.

Replacement Procedure

1. Turn the power off by pressing 

@

F

.

2. Loosen both screws and remove the

battery cover.

3. Replace the old battery with new, with

the positive (+) sides facing up.

4. Replace the battery cover and screws.

5. Press the RESET switch on the back.

• Make sure that the display appears

as shown. Otherwise, remove the
battery, reinstall, and check the
display again.

Automatic Power Off Function

This calculator will turn its power off automatically if no key
is pressed for about 10 minutes.
