2. Setup
Power Source
The DAXI X-600 calculator operates on a dual power system: battery and solar. This ensures continuous operation even if the battery power is low, as the solar panel provides backup energy. No specific battery installation is typically required for initial use, as the calculator comes with a pre-installed battery and is ready for solar power when exposed to light.
Initial Power On
To turn on the calculator, press the [ON] button. If the display does not appear, ensure the calculator is exposed to sufficient light for the solar panel or check the battery status.

4. Maintenance
Cleaning
To clean the calculator, use a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, solvents, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the casing and display. Do not immerse the calculator in water.
Storage
Store the calculator in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. When not in use for extended periods, it is advisable to keep it in its protective case to prevent dust accumulation and accidental damage.
Battery Care
The DAXI X-600 utilizes both solar and battery power. Ensure the solar panel is not obstructed during use in well-lit environments to maximize its efficiency and extend battery life. If the display becomes dim or unresponsive in low light, it may indicate a low battery. Consult the full user manual for specific battery replacement instructions if needed, though the dual power system significantly reduces the frequency of such needs.
5. Troubleshooting
Display Issues
- Blank Display: Ensure the calculator is turned on. If it's in a dark environment, move it to a well-lit area to activate the solar panel. If the issue persists, the battery may be depleted.
- Dim Display: This often indicates low battery power. Use the calculator in a brighter environment to utilize solar power or consider replacing the battery if the issue persists in bright conditions.
Incorrect Results
- Check Mode Settings: Verify that the calculator is in the correct mode (e.g., COMP for general calculations, STAT for statistics).
- Angle Units: Ensure the correct angle unit (Degrees, Radians, or Gradians) is selected for trigonometric calculations.
- Input Error: Double-check your input for any typographical errors or incorrect function usage.
Calculator Not Responding
If the calculator becomes unresponsive, try pressing the [ON] button. If it remains unresponsive, a soft reset may be necessary. Locate the small RESET button (usually on the back) and press it gently with a thin, pointed object (like a straightened paper clip). Note that a reset may clear all memory and settings.
