  • Power Source: Operates on DC 1.5V (battery).

3. Setup

3.1 Battery Installation

The DEXIN DX-817 calculator requires a DC 1.5V battery for operation. The specific battery type is not detailed on the packaging, but most calculators of this size typically use a button cell battery (e.g., LR44) or AAA batteries.

  2. Use a small screwdriver (if necessary) to open the cover.
  3. Insert the new battery, ensuring the correct polarity (+ and -) is observed.
  4. Replace the battery compartment cover securely.

4. Basic Operations

4.1 Power On/Off

  • To turn on the calculator, press the [ON/AC] or [CE/C] key once (depending on model variation, usually [CE] or [AC]).
  • The calculator typically has an auto-power-off feature to conserve battery life. To manually turn off, if an [OFF] key is present, press it. Otherwise, it will power off automatically after a period of inactivity.

4.2 Basic Arithmetic

Perform standard calculations using the numeric keys and operation keys.

  • Addition (+): Enter first number, press [+], enter second number, press [=].
  • Subtraction (-): Enter first number, press [-], enter second number, press [=].
  • Multiplication (×): Enter first number, press [×], enter second number, press [=].
  • Division (÷): Enter first number, press [÷], enter second number, press [=].

4.3 Clear Functions

  • Clear Entry ([CE]): Clears the last entered number or calculation, allowing you to correct mistakes without clearing the entire operation.
  • Clear All ([C] or [AC]): Clears all entries and calculations, resetting the calculator to its initial state.

5. Advanced Functions

5.1 Memory Functions

The calculator includes memory functions to store and recall values.

  • Memory Plus ([M+]): Adds the displayed value to the memory.
  • Memory Minus ([M-]): Subtracts the displayed value from the memory.
  • Memory Recall/Clear ([MRC]): Press once to recall the value stored in memory. Press twice to clear the memory.

5.2 Percentage ([%])

To calculate percentages:

  • Example: Calculate 10% of 200. Enter 200 [×] 10 [%]. The result will be 20.
  • Example: Add 10% to 200. Enter 200 [+] 10 [%]. The result will be 220.

5.3 Square Root ([√])

To calculate the square root of a number:

  • Enter the number, then press the [√] key.

5.4 Grand Total ([GT])

The Grand Total function accumulates the results of multiple calculations. After each calculation ending with [=], the result is added to the Grand Total memory. Press [GT] to display the accumulated total.

6. Maintenance

6.1 Cleaning

  • Wipe the calculator with a soft, dry cloth.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or spray directly onto the device.

6.2 Storage

  • Store the calculator in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
  • If storing for an extended period, it is advisable to remove the battery to prevent leakage.

7. Troubleshooting

7.1 Common Issues

  • Display is blank: Check if the battery is correctly installed or needs replacement.
  • Incorrect calculations: Ensure all previous calculations are cleared using [AC] or [C] before starting a new one. Verify correct key presses.

7.2 Error Messages

  • "MINUS MEMORY ERROR GT": This message indicates an issue related to the Grand Total or memory function, possibly due to an attempt to subtract from an empty memory or an overflow. Clear memory and Grand Total using [MRC] (twice) and [AC].
