Aha!
If you hover your mouse between the panels housing the disassembly and the registers, it will turn into a "splitter" pointer. Click and drag left and right to make the registers display smaller or larger.

I've been caught out by that before, but checking the ROM disassembly it can be seen that the CLEAR routine at 1EAC doesn't call the RESTORE routine at 1E42, so it's never going to do it. -
