● Precautions on tuning
1. The tuner may pick up noise from the surrounding environment or the hum noise
generated by electric appliances, and shows indications as if a note is played. This
is not a malfunction, and the tuner operates properly when a note is played.
2. To tune acoustic instruments, the note is received through the built-in microphone.
It is recommended, therefore, that the tuning procedure be performed in a quiet
environment for accurate tuning. Also, bring the instrument close to the tuner to
register a note. If it is difficult to tune the instrument with the built-in microphone, it
is recommended that a microphone, such as SEIKO STM-20, sold separately from the
tuner, be used together with the tuner.
MEMORY BACKUP FUNCTION
Even after the tuner is turned off, the following settings are stored in memory and will not
be erased. The descriptions in the parentheses represent the initial settings made at the
factory. If the batteries are replaced with new ones, the tuner will return to the initial settings.
1. Setting item [MODE]
2. Tuning mode [AUTO]
3. Reference pitch [440 Hz]
4. Note [A]
5. Key [C]
BATTERY CHANGE
● When the batteries near their end, the liquid crystal display will become dim. In that case,
replace the batteries with new ones immediately. If the batteries are exhausted, the tuner
may not operate properly.
● When replacing the batteries, replace both of them with new ones at the same time. It
is recommended that batteries of the same manufacturer and of the same type be
installed.
1. While pressing the battery hatch, slide it in the
direction of the arrow until it stops, and lift it to
remove.
2. Install two AAA dry batteries (R03 or LR03),
checking the + and – terminals are properly
aligned.
* If the batteries are set with their terminals improperly
aligned, it may result in a malfunction.
● If you decide not to use the tuner for a long time, be
sure to remove the batteries from the tuner.
* When disposing of the batteries, observe the regulations of the
authorities concerned.
CAUTION ON USING THE TUNER
If the power button is not pressed properly, or if the battery change procedure is not
performed properly, the tuner may malfunction. In that case, press the power button
to
turn off the tuner immediately. Then, press it again, and check if the tuner operates properly.
