Descriptions
Notes are sounded at an
unchanging volume level,
regardless of how lightly
or forcefully you finger
the keyboard.
Fortissimo (ff) can be ob-
tained with weaker touch
than usual, so, you will
feel that the keyboard is
lighter. This setting makes
it easy to play, even for
children.
This is the most natural
touch for the keyboard.
This is the closest to the
touch of an acoustic piano.
Fortissimo (ff) can be ob-
tained only with forceful
playing, so you will feel
that the keyboard is heavi-
er. Dynamic fingering
adds even more feeling to
what you play.
Disabling Buttons
(Panel Lock)
Making the setting for the panel lock enables a state where
only piano play is possible, and all buttons are disabled.
As the settings are not changed, this is convenient for piano
performances.

Piano
While holding down...
1.
Before you switch on the power, turn the volume
down all the way by rotating the [Volume] knob.
2.
While holding down the [Piano] button, press
the [Power] switch to turn on the power.
3.
Adjust the volume.
Fingering the keyboard now produces a grand piano
sound. It will be not possible to switch to another sound.
To defeat the Panel Lock function, turn the volume
down to the minimum, and turn on the power once
again.
