Selecting and Playing a Tone
Your digital piano comes equipped with three pedals:
damper, soft, and sostenuto
Pedal Functions
z Damper Pedal
Pressing the damper pedal while playing will cause
the notes you play to reverberate for a very long
time.
• When GRAND PIANO 1, GRAND PIANO 2, or
GRAND PIANO 3 is selected as the tone, pressing
this pedal will cause notes to reverberate just like
the damper pedal on an acoustic grand piano.
Half-pedal operation (pressing the pedal part way)
is also supported.
z Soft Pedal
Pressing this pedal while playing suppresses notes
played on the keyboard after the pedal was pressed,
and makes them sound softer.
z Sostenuto Pedal
Only the notes that are played while this pedal are
depressed are sustained until the pedal is released.

METRONOME button as you press the
/NO or /YES button.
