THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING A KAWAI DIGITAL PIANO!
This KAWAI digital piano is a revolutionary new keyboard instrument, combining the latest in electronic advances with traditional craftsmanship inherited from KAWAI’s many years of experience building fine pianos. The CN22 keyboard provides the touch response and full dynamic range required for a superb performance of piano, harpsichord, organ, and other instruments. The CN22 digital piano’s Lesson function helps performers to practice the piano with a collection of etudes from Czerny and Burgmüller, or songs from Alfred’s Basic Piano Library lesson book (USA, Canada, Australia and UK only).
In addition, the CN22 digital piano is equipped with industry standard MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface), allowing a number of other electronic instruments to be controlled and played simultaneously, creating a range of musical possibilities.
This Owner’s Manual contains valuable information to help performers make full use of the instrument’s varied capabilities. Please read all sections carefully and keep this manual handy for future reference.

PEDALS
The CN22 digital piano features three pedals—just like a grand piano: Damper, Sostenuto and Soft.
Soft pedal |
Damper pedal |
Sostenuto pedal
¡ Damper pedal
Sustains the sound after hands are lifted from the keyboard. The damper pedal is also capable of responding to half pedaling.
