- Protection: Always use the provided clip-on protective hard cover when the calculator is not in use or when transporting it to prevent scratches and impact damage to the screen and keys.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the calculator's body and screen. For stubborn marks, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but avoid excessive moisture. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: Store the calculator in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, which can affect the display and battery life.
