long use. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.

• To prevent breaking of the wire, take care to avoid putting
any type of load on the power cord.

No bending! No winding!

• Never insert metal, pencils, or any other objects into the
product's 9.5V DC terminal. Doing so creates the risk of
accident.

DC 9.5V terminal

Using Batteries

You can use six AA-size batteries for power.

• Use alkaline or zinc-carbon batteries. Never use oxyride or
any other nickel based batteries.

Open the battery cover on the bottom of the Digital Keyboard,

Polyphony

The term polyphony refers to the maximum number of notes
you can play at the same time. This keyboard has 12-note
polyphony, which includes the notes you play as well as the
rhythms and auto-accompaniment patterns that are played
by the keyboard. This means that when a rhythm or auto­accompaniment pattern is being played by the keyboard, the
number of notes (polyphony) available for keyboard play is
reduced. Also note that some of the tones offer only 6-note
polyphony.

• When rhythm or auto accompaniment is playing, the
number of sounds simultaneously played is reduced.

• Though you can sound up to 12 notes at one time, only the
last four keyboard keys pressed light up.

Other Useful Functions

To change the key of the keyboard

The transpose feature of this keyboard lets you raise or lower
its key in semitone increments. This means you can easily
match to suit someone’s voice, and you can eliminate sharps
and flats from music making it easier to play.

1.

While in any mode besides the Song Bank Mode
(indicated when the SONG BANK indicator is
lit), hold down the TONO (TONE) button and
press the RITMO (RHYTHM) button.

• Perform step 2 within five seconds after performing

Using auto-accompaniment

This keyboard features 50 accompaniment patterns that let
you add full accompaniments to your performances
automatically. With auto-accompaniment, part of the
keyboard is reserved as an accompaniment keyboard. As you
play your chords on the accompaniment keyboard, the
accompaniment pattern adjusts automatically to follow the
progression you play.
You get a choice between two different methods for chord
play. DIGITACIÓN (FINGERED) lets you play chords as you
normally do, while ACORDES CASIO (CASIO CHORD)
makes it possible to play fully formed chords with one finger.

Samba

• Be sure to always specify a 2-digit number.

• If you discover a mistake before you input the second

digit, press the RITMO (RHYTHM) button to return
to the previously set rhythm number.

The lower (left) 1.5 octaves are reserved for use as an
accompaniment keyboard whenever you select ACORDES
CASIO (CASIO CHORD) or DIGITACIÓN (FINGERED) with
the ALIMENTACIÓN/MODO (POWER/MODE) selector.
The panel above the accompaniment keyboard keys is marked
with the names of the notes they play. The remainder of the
keyboard (the part that is not included in the accompaniment
keyboard) is called the melody keyboard. Please be sure to
remember these terms, because they will be used throughout

Also, note that auto-chords only work in conjunction with
rhythm patterns, and not independently of them.

Using 3-Step Lesson System

Even individuals who cannot play the keyboard at all can
follow along with the 100 built-in Song Bank tunes with the
EJECUCIÓN NOTA POR NOTA (ONE KEY PLAY) buttons.
You can also use the 3-Step Lesson System to learn at your
own pace. Play slowly at first until you are able to play along
at normal speed.
Of the 100 built-in tunes, numbers 00 through 83 feature auto­accompaniment (auto-accompaniment tunes), while 84
through 99 are played using both hands (two-hand tunes).

The 3-Step Lesson System can be used with the following 3­step lesson plan to master keyboard play.

Step 1: Master the timing

Pressing the EJECUCIÓN NOTA POR NOTA (ONE
KEY PLAY) buttons plays the melody for an auto­accompaniment tune or the right hand part for two­hand tunes. In both cases, the auto-accompaniment
(the left hand part in the case of two-hand tunes) is
played automatically by the keyboard. In place of the
EJECUCIÓN NOTA POR NOTA (ONE KEY PLAY)
buttons, you can also press any key of the keyboard
to play the melody or right hand part. The purpose
of this step is to familiarize yourself with the timing
required to play melody notes.

3-Step Lesson System Tempo Setting

You can use the procedure in step 6 of the procedure on page
EN-18 to set the tempo of the left-hand part for Song Bank
and 3-Step Lesson System play (Step 1 through 3).
This means you can use a slower tempo at the beginning,
and then increase it as you learn. Press both of the TEMPO/
VALOR (TEMPO/VALUE) buttons ( and ) at the same
time to return the tempo to its initial preset setting.

To play a built-in Song Bank tune

1.

Look up the number of the tune you want to play

2.

Press the CANCIÓN (SONG BANK) button until
the SONG BANK indicator appears.

• This causes the number and name of the currently
selected Song Bank tune to appear on the display.

Step 2: Master the melody

In this step, you use the display to learn which fingers
you should use to play, and the key light system to
learn which keyboard keys to press. You can play at
the pace you want, because the auto-accompaniment
or left hand part waits until you press the correct key.

Step 3: Play at normal speed

At this level, the keyboard’s keys still light to indicate
which notes to play, but they no longer wait for you
to press the correct key. The auto-accompaniment or
left hand part is played at normal speed.

Timing Indicator

The timing indicator helps you become familiar with tunes
you are playing for the first time by indicating the timing of
notes you play on the keyboard. Timing is easier to see when
you use a slow tempo during lesson play.

Using the Timing Indicator

The timing indicator shows the timing of notes contained in
the currently selected part (R or L). Notes are indicated as
two-segment blocks that scroll from the top of the display,
down to the bottom. A note is played when its block reaches
the bottom of the display.

NOTE

• Selecting another Song Bank tune switches the tone setting to
the newly selected tune’s preset melody tone.

for the melody of the Song Bank tune.

• The above procedure can be used to change the Song Bank
melody tone before starting play or while play is already in
progress.

• You can also change the tone of two-hand tunes (tune numbers
84 to 99). Note however, that selecting a sustainable tone (like
an organ tone) when using 3-Step Lesson Step 1 or Step 2 (in
which accompaniment waits for correct input from you before
proceeding), can cause notes of the auto accompaniment to
be sustained while the keyboard is waiting for your input. If this
happens, play something on the keyboard to stop the sustained

sounds slightly different
depending where it is played on
the keyboard.

CauseSymptom Action

• Keyboard is in the Song Bank
Mode.

• Demo tune play is in progress.

This is an unavoidable result of the digital sampling process,* and does not indicate

the original musical instrument. Because of this, there may be a very slight difference
in tonal quality and volume between sample ranges.

• Press the CANCIÓN (SONG
