The tuning guide indicates the difference between the input
pitch and the displayed note name. If the difference
between the input and the correct pitch is within ±50 cents,
the tuning guide shows the amount of difference.

Play a single note on the open string that you’re

tuning.

The display will show the note name that is closest to
the pitch of the string you played.

* You must cleanly play a single note on only the string

you’re tuning.

Tune your instrument so that the correct note name of

the string you’re tuning appears in the display.
