FEATURE REFERENCE

The "FEATURE REFERENCE" provides full details on each of the PSR-400/PSR-
500 features. The features are presented as they appear on the PSR-400/PSR-500
panel, organized into functional groups such as "OVERALL CONTROL." "AUTO AC-
COMPANIMENT," and "VOICE." To find information about a particular control or fea-
ture, either go directly to the section in which that control or feature is found, or look up
the name of the control or feature in the index at the end of the manual.

POWER Button

Press the [POWER] button to turn the power on or off.

Auto Power OFF

To prevent unnecessary battery drainage, the PSR-400/
PSR-500 features an Auto Power OFF function that auto-
matically turns the power OFF if the instrument is not
used — i.e. no buttons or keys are pressed or no automatic
features are operating — for approximately 10 minutes.
The Auto Power OFF function does not operate when
the PSR-400/PSR-500 is powered from an optional AC
Power Adaptor.

The [MODE] button determines the operational mode
of the PSR-400/PSR-500. Press the [MODE] button as
many times as necessary until the indicator corresponding
to the desired mode lights:

select and play a single voice (or two voices if the DUAL
VOICE function is used), and select styles for rhythm-
only accompaniment
SPLIT
In this mode different voices can be selected for the left-
and right-hand sections of the keyboard. See page 23 for
details.
