used. For details refer to "Volume during tuning" (p. 14).

Each time you press the [TUNER] button the Tuner function will
alternate on/off. When the tuner is on, the button indicator will

Repeat steps 1—3 to tune all the strings.
* When tuning a guitar that has a tremolo arm, tuning one string may
cause the other strings to go out of tune. In such cases, first tune the
strings to the approximate pitch (so that the note name is displayed),
and then keep tuning each string until they are all in tune.
