The following steps can be used even during playback.

Use the data dial, the [+/YES] button, the [-/NO] button or the number buttons
[1]-[0].

buttons simultaneously.
Using the Tap function
The auto accompaniment starts automatically at the tempo you tapped the

The auto accompaniment can be started at any tempo you desire by “tapping“ out the
tempo with the [TEMPO/TAP] button.
