against harmful interference in a residential installation. This

equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy

and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions,

may cause harmful interference with radio communications.

However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in

a particular installation.

If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or

television reception, which can be determined by turning the

equipment off and on, you can try to correct the interference by

one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

• Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different

from that to which the receiver is connected.

• Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/television

technician for help.

Generally, the keyboard is divided into these zones: graphing keys, editing

keys, advanced function keys, and scientific calculator keys.

Graphing keys access the interactive graphing features.

Editing keys allow you to edit expressions and values.

Advanced function keys display menus that access the

advanced functions.

Scientific calculator keys access the capabilities of a

standard scientific calculator.
