Power Supply

Your calculator can be powered by AA-size batteries or by using the specified AC adaptor.

Battery Operation

• Main Batteries
  • Four AA-size batteries are used for normal operation. Replace batteries as soon as possible whenever screen figures become difficult to read, or if you start to experience printing problems such as slow printing speed.
• Back-up Battery
  • Your calculator comes with a single built-in CR2032 lithium battery that provides power to retain values stored in memory when you leave the calculator without power (AC adapter not connected and main batteries not loaded). You will need to replace the back-up battery about once every 22 months to maintain memory contents if you leave the calculator without power.
  • Never mix batteries of different types.
  • Never mix old batteries and new ones.
  • Keep batteries away from small children. If swallowed consult with your physician immediately.
  • Dead batteries can leak and damage the calculator if left in the battery compartment for long periods.
  • Even if you do not use the calculator, you should replace the main batteries at least once every year.

AC Operation

• Unplug the adaptor from the AC outlet when you are not using the calculator.
• Make sure the calculator power is switched off when connecting or disconnecting the adaptor.
• Using any adaptor other than the AD-A60024 (either supplied or obtained as an option) can damage your calculator.

RESET Button

• Pressing the RESET button causes memory to be cleared. Be sure to keep separate records of all important settings and numeric data to protect against accidental loss.
• Press the RESET button on the back of the calculator to restore normal operation whenever the calculator does not operate correctly. If pressing the RESET button does not restore normal operation, contact your original retailer or nearby dealer.

Currency Conversion

To set conversion rates

• Example: Conversion rate U.S. $1 = €0.9025 for Currency 1 (C1)

“PRT”, “CONVERSION”, “F”

1. CA
2. % (SET) (Until SET appears.)
3. 0.9025* (C1)

For rates of 1 or greater, you can input up to six digits. For rates less than 1, you can input up to 8 digits, including 0 for the integer digit and leading zeros (though only six significant digits, counted from the left and starting with the first non-zero digit, can be specified).

• Examples: 0.123456, 0.0123456, 0.0012345
• You can check the currently set rate by pressing CA and then (C1).

Conversion rate

$ = 1, C1 (EUR) = 0.9025, C2 (GBP) = 0.7509

“PRT”, “CONVERSION”, “2”

100 EUR → $? (110.80)

$110 → GBP? (82.60)

Specifying the Number of Decimal Places for Intermediate US Dollar Amounts

When you convert from one national currency to another, the calculator internally converts the original currency to US dollars. This conversion result is the “intermediate US dollar amount”. Next, the intermediate US dollar amount is converted to the target currency. The flow of the steps of the conversions will be shown on the printout.

You can specify the number of decimal places for the intermediate US dollar amount.

Example: To specify five decimal places for the intermediate US dollar amount

“PRT”, “CONVERSION”, “F”

1. CA
2. % (SET) ((Until SET appears.)(Hasta que aparezca “SET”)(Jusqu’à ce que « SET » apparaisse.)
3. 5 ($)

Set 0 when F (floating point) is set for the number of decimal places. Inputting a number other than one from 3 to 9 or 0 causes an error. When this happens, press C and input the correct number.

• After pressing CA , press ($) to display the number of decimal places specified for conversion results.
