the battery from the tuner if it is not to be used for an extended
period of time.

4. Pluck the string to be tuned. (Do not pluck more than one string at a
time.)
5. Adjust the tuning peg until the meter needle © rests in the middle of
the meter at 440 FIz (0 Cent). If the note is flat, the needle will lean
to the left; if the note is raised, the needle will lean to the right.
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 to tune the other strings.
• Electric Guitar/Bass Tuning
1. Connect the guitar cord to the INPUT jack O. (At this time, the
OUTPUT jack © can be connected to an amplifier in preparation for
tuning during a performance.)
2. Follow the same acoustic guitar procedures as those outlined above.
■ PITCH SELECTION
The A4 standard pitch can be changed
from 440 Hz to some other pitch. For
example, if an A4 = 444 Hz standard
pitch is desired, tune the strings so
that the meter needle © rests at 444
Hz instead of 440 Hz when tuning.
■ BATTERY CHECK
Move the power switch
O
to the “BAT.” position. The meter needle ©
now indicates the charge remaining in the battery. If the needle rests
to the left of the battery check bar (refer to Figure 1), the battery needs
to be replaced immediately.
• Battery Change
The battery compartment is in the rear of the tuner. Remove the old
battery and replace it with a new one of the same type. Be careful to
connect the battery in the correct polarity.
*
Always turn the power switch
O
to “OFF" before changing the battery .
