Qawwa Inizjali Mixgħula
Agħfas il- [ON/OFF] key to power on the calculator. The display will show the last calculated value or a default screen. If the display is blank, ensure the battery is properly installed and charged.
Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
Operazzjonijiet Bażiċi
Perform standard arithmetic operations using the number keys and the [+], [-], [×], [÷] ċwievet. Il- [=] key executes the calculation.
Second Functions
Many keys have a second function printed above them. To access these, press the [2ND] key (typically yellow) followed by the desired function key. For example, biex taċċessa l [CLR TVM] funzjoni, agħfas [2ND] imbagħad [FV].
Time-Value-of-Money (TVM) Functions
Use the TVM keys ([N], [I/Y], [PV], [PMT], [FV]) to solve problems involving annuities, loans, mortgages, and other time-value calculations. Input known values and then press [CPT] (Compute) followed by the unknown variable you wish to calculate.
Cash Flow Analysis
Il- [CF] key initiates the Cash Flow worksheet. Input the initial investment (CF0) and subsequent cash flows (C01, C02, etc.) along with their frequencies (F01, F02, etc.). After entering all cash flows, use [NPV] u [IRR] to calculate Net Present Value and Internal Rate of Return, respectively.
Amortization and Depreciation
- Amortizzazzjoni: Access the Amortization worksheet by pressing [2ND] [AMORT]. This function allows for the calculation of principal and interest paid over specific periods of a loan.
- Depreciation: The Depreciation worksheet ([2ND] [DEPR]) supports various depreciation methods for asset valuation.
Statistics Functions
Il- [DATA] key allows entry of data for statistical analysis. Use [STAT] to access statistical functions, including one- and two-variable statistics with linear, logarithmic, exponential, and power regression options.
Kklerjar tal-Memorja
- To clear all memory registers, press [2ND] [CLR WORK].
- To clear Time-Value-of-Money registers, press [2ND] [CLR TVM].
- For cash flow data, clear within the [CF] worksheet by pressing [2ND] [CLR WORK] while in the cash flow menu.
Karatteristiċi Ewlenin
- Performs profitability calculations, including Net Present Value (NPV) and Internal Rate of Return (IRR) for uneven cash flows.
- Dedicated Time-Value-of-Money (TVM) and Amortization keys simplify calculations for pensions, loans, and mortgages.
- Offers list-based one- and two-variable statistics with four regression options: linear, logarithmic, exponential, and power.
Manutenzjoni
Proper care ensures the longevity and performance of your calculator.
- Tindif: Keep the calculator clean and dry. Use a soft, dry cloth for cleaning. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents.
- Ħażna: When not in use, store the calculator with its protective slide case to prevent damage to the screen and keys.

Issolvi l-problemi
- Il-kalkolatur ma jixgħelx: Ensure the battery is correctly installed and has sufficient charge. Replace the battery if necessary.
- Riżultati Skorretti: Verify all input values. Ensure the correct financial mode (e.g., BEGIN or END for annuities) is selected. Clear all memory registers ([2ND] [CLR WORK]) before starting new complex calculations to prevent interference from previous data.
- Kwistjonijiet tal-Wiri: Check battery level. If the display is faint, replace the battery. If segments are missing, contact customer support.
- Ċwievet li ma jirrispondux: Ensure keys are pressed firmly. If specific keys consistently fail to respond, contact customer support.
