The mark at the top of the [Volume] knob indicates the
volume level typically produced by an acoustic piano.
This is usually the most appropriate volume for your
piano performances.
The pedals perform the following operations. You’ll use them
mainly when playing piano.

Damper Pedal (right pedal)
Use this pedal to sustain the sound.
While this pedal is held down, notes will be sustained for an
extended time even if you release your fingers from the
keyboard.
The length of sustain will change subtly depending on how
deeply you press the pedal.
When you press the damper pedal of an acoustic piano, a
slight noise is heard when the damper frees the strings, and
a richly spacious resonance is added by the strings that
vibrate in sympathy with the strings of the notes you actually
play. The RG-1F/RG-3F replicates the sound created when
the damper releases the string (“damper noise”) and the
sympathetic vibration (“damper resonance”).
You can modify the sound of the damper releasing the
string and the sound of the sympathetic vibration (p.
32).
Sostenuto Pedal (center pedal)
The notes you are pressing when this pedal is depressed will
be sustained.
Soft Pedal (left pedal)
This pedal is used to make the sound softer.
Playing with the soft pedal depressed produces a sound that
is not as strong as when otherwise played with the
equivalent strength. This is the same function as the left
pedal of an acoustic piano.
The softness of the tone can be varied subtly by the depth to
which you press the pedal.
You can switch the function of the sostenuto pedal and
soft pedal (p. 70).
If you move the piano (RG-1F)
If you move the piano to a different
location, be sure to adjust the
adjuster knob located under the
pedals.
Turn the adjuster to lower it so that it
firmly contacts the floor.
If there is a gap between the adjuster and the floor, the piano
may be unstable or the pedal may be damaged. In particular
when placing the piano on a carpeted surface, make sure that the
adjuster is firmly pressing down on the floor.
