   Before Using the Calculator 
  Check the Current Calculation Mode
Be sure to check the status indicators that indicate the 
current calculation mode (COMP, STAT, TABLE), display 
formats setting, and angle unit setting (Deg, Rad, Gra).
  Return to Initial Setup
Press                                (YES)         to return the initial 
calculator setup:
  Calculation Mode    : COMP
  Input/Output Format   : Maths
  Angle Unit    : Deg
  Display Digits    : Norm 1
  Fraction Display Format  : d/c
  Statistical Data Input  : OFF
  Decimal Point Format  : Dot
This action will not clear the variable memories.
  Initialize the Calculator
When you are not sure of the current calculator setting, you 
are recommended to initialize the calculator (resets 
calculation mode to "COMP", angle unit to "Degree", clears 
replay and variable memories, and resets LCD contrast) by 
performing the following key operations:    
                    (All)        (YES)        .

  Input Capacity F-792SGA allows you to input a single calculation with up to 99 
bytes. Normally, one byte is used each time you press one of 
the numeric keys, arithmetic keys, scientific function keys or
       . Some functions require 4 – 13bytes.       ,       , and the 
direction keys will not use up any bytes.
When the remaining input capacity is less than 10bytes, the 
input cursor will change from “    ” to “    ” signaling that the 
memory is running low. 
  Input Editing 
 New Input begins on the left of display. When the input data 
is more than 15 characters (Line Mode) / 16 characters 
(Math mode), the line will scroll to the right consecutively. 
You can scroll back to the left by using       and       to review 
the input.
  In Line mode, press      to let the cursor jump to the 
beginning of input, press      to jump to the end.
  In Mathematics mode, press      to let the cursor jump to the 
beginning of input when it is at the end of the input 
calculation. Or press      to let the cursor jump to the end of 
input when it is at the beginning of the input calculation.
  Omit the multiplication sign and final close parenthesis.
Inputting Expressions and Values
*1.  Omit multiplication sign (x)
  -  Input before an open parentheses        : 1 x (2+3)
  -  Input before scientific functions that includes parentheses: 
2 x cos(30)
  -  Input before Random number function  
  -  Input before Variable (A, B, C, D, X, Y, M), π, θ
Example: 2 x log 100 x (1+3) = 16
Including         *1, 
        *2,        *3
Omitting         *1, 
        *3 2xlog(100) x (1+3)

*2.  Scientific functions come with the open parenthesis. Example: sin(, cos(, Pol(, LCM(…. You need to input the 
argument and the close parenthesis        .
*3.  Omit the last close parenthesis before the        ,        ,       ,
                 and        .
  Insert and Overwrite Input mode
In Line mode, you can use INSERT         or Overwrite mode for 
inputting.
  -  In Insert mode (Default input mode), the cursor is a  vertical flashing line “   ” for inserting a new character.
  -  In Overwrite mode, press               key to switch the cursor  to a flashing horizontal “ _ ” and replace the character at 
the current cursor position.
In Mathematics mode, you can only use the Insert mode.
Whenever the display format changes from Line mode to 
Mathematics mode, it will automatically switch to the Insert mode.
  Deleting and Correcting an Expression
In Insert mode: Move the cursor to the right of the character or 
function that needs to be deleted, then press        . 
In Overwrite mode: Move the cursor under the character or 
function being deleted, then press        .
Example: 1234567 + 889900
(1) Replace an entry (1234567     1234560)
(2) Deletion (1234567     134567)
