How to Play Chords
The way you finger chords depends on the current
Auto Accompaniment mode. If you want to play
without Auto Accompaniment, use the NORMAL
mode.

this mode lets you play four different types of chords
using simplified fingerings in the accompaniment
keyboard range of the keyboard. The following shows
