Drum Pads — play drum sounds re-

the sound you create.

Notes:
• If the keyboard is left in one place
for a very long time, its feet could
mar your furniture's finish. We rec-
ommend you place the feet on felt
cloth pads to protect your furniture
or use a keyboard stand, available
at your local RadioShack store.
• This Owner's Manual explains how
to use this electronic keyboard. It
does not teach music.
