Thank you for your purchase of the SHARP electronic printing calculator, model EL-1611E.

To ensure trouble-free operation of your SHARP calculator, we recommend the following:

1. The calculator should be kept in areas free from extreme temperature changes, moisture, and dust.
2. A soft, dry cloth should be used to clean the calculator. Do not use solvents or a wet cloth.
3. 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.

OPERATING CONTROLS

POWER ON KEY / CLEAR / CLEAR ENTRY KEY:

Clear - This key also serves as a clear key for the calculation register and resets an error condition.

Clear entry - When pressed after a number and before a function, clear the number.

POWER OFF KEY:

When this key is pressed, the power is turned off.

PRINT KEY:

To save paper you can only print what is displayed, even in non-print mode.

Pressing P after the entry of a number will print the entry with the symbol “#” even in non-printing mode.

Pressing ☐ will insert a separator into a number entry such as a code, date, etc. Separators are displayed as a period and dashes but printed as periods.

MEMORY + KEY / PRINT ON / OFF KEY:

Pressing 2nd P/NP selects print mode or non-print mode.

Causes the calculator to operate in a display / print or display

only mode, depending upon the calculator's present state.

"P" on the display: Print mode.

"NP" on the display: Non-print mode.

MEMORY – KEY / DECIMAL SELECTION KEY:

Pressing 2nd DEC sets the number of decimal places in the result.

→ F → 3 → 2 → 1 → 0 → A

"F" on the display:

The answer is displayed in the floating decimal system.

"3, 2, 1, 0" on the display:

Presets the number of decimal places in the answer.

"A" on the display (Add mode):

The decimal point in addition and subtraction entries is automatically positioned to the 2nd digit from the lowest digit of entry number. Use of the add mode permits addition and subtraction of numbers without entry of the decimal point. Use of , × and ÷ will automatically override the add mode and decimally correct answers will be printed.

CONVERSION KEY (TO THE EURO CURRENCY) :

RATE SET

CONVERSION KEY (TO A NATIONAL CURRENCY) / CONVERSION RATE SETTING KEY:

You can set the exchange rate by pressing 2nd RATE SET. (A maximum of 6 digits excluding the decimal point can be stored as the exchange rate.)

2nd FUNCTION KEY :

To use the functions shown above the keys, such as “DEC”, press the 2nd key first. (When the 2nd key is pressed, “2nd” will appear at the top of the display.)

Example: To change decimal place setting from F to 2

PAPER FEED KEY:

When pressed, the paper tape advances.

DISPLAY:

F: Floating decimal mode

- For illustration purposes, all the relevant symbols are visible in the display above. However, in actual use, this would never happen.

INK ROLLER REPLACEMENT

If printing is blurry even when the ink roller is in the proper position, replace the roller.

Ink roller: Type EA-732R

WARNING

APPLYING INK TO WORN INK ROLLER OR USE OF UNAPPROVED INK ROLLER MAY CAUSE SERIOUS DAMAGE TO PRINTER.

1) Turn the power off. 2) Remove the printer cover. (Fig. 1) 3) Remove the ink roller by turning it counterclockwise and pulling it upward (Fig. 2) 4) Install new ink roller and press it in the correct position. Make sure that the ink roller is securely in place. (Fig. 3) 5) Put back the printer cover.

Cleaning the printing mechanism

If the print becomes dull after long time usage, clean the printing wheel according to the following procedures:

1) Remove the printer cover and the ink roller. 2) Install the paper roll and feed it until it comes out of the front of the printing mechanism. 3) Put a small brush (like a tooth brush) lightly to the printing wheel and clean it by pressing 📂. 4) Put back the ink roller and the printer cover.

Notes: • Never attempt to turn the printing belt or restrict its movement while printing. This may cause incorrect printing. - Do not rotate the printing mechanism manually, this may damage the printer.

PAPER ROLL REPLACEMENT

Never insert paper roll if torn. Doing so will cause paper to jam. Always cut leading edge with scissors first.

When using the paper that is less than or equals to 25 mm (31/32") in outside diameter:

Caution: • Never use the supplied paper (25 mm (31/32") in outside diameter) in the holder.

• When replacing the paper, touching the inside of the printer may damage it.
• The calculator has a free-paper mechanism. When drawing out the paper tape, pull it straight forward on the paper cutter side.

POWER SUPPLY

This calculator operates on dry batteries.

The calculator can also be operated on AC power through use of an AC adaptor.

BATTERY OPERATION

If the display becomes dim or the printer stops before or during printing, the batteries should be replaced.

1. After the replacement, press OFF and ON in this order to clear the calculator.

When the batteries are correctly installed "0." will be displayed. (If the display is blank, displays any other symbol or the keys become inoperative, remove the batteries and install them again. Press OFF and ON in this order and check the display again.)

Note: Due to solvent leakage of the battery, keeping a used battery in the battery compartment may result in damage to the calculator. Remove a used battery promptly.

Battery: Heavy-duty manganese battery (AA or R6) × 4

1. Turn off the power by pressing OFF.
2. Remove the battery cover by sliding it in the direction of the arrow on the cover.
3. Replace the batteries. Be sure that the “+” and “−” marks on the battery correspond to the “+” and “−” marks in the calculator. Always put back the 4 batteries at the same time.
4. Put back the battery cover.

AC adaptor: Model EA-28A

When the AC adaptor is connected to the calculator, the power source is automatically switched over from dry batteries to AC power source.

HOW TO CONNECT THE AC ADAPTOR

Notes: • When the calculator is not in use, be sure to remove the adaptor from the calculator and the wall outlet.

- Never use any other AC adaptor except EA-28A.

CAUTION

Use of other than the AC adaptor EA-28A may apply improper voltage to your SHARP calculator and will cause damage.

Make sure that you turn the calculator's power off when connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor.

To connect the AC adaptor, follow steps ① and ②.

To disconnect the AC adaptor, simply reverse the procedure.
