■ PRECAUTIONS

♦ To prevent damage, do not use the tuner in the following locations;

• places where the unit will be in direct sunlight;
• places subject to temperature and humidity extremes;

• places that are sandy or dusty.

♦ To power the tuner, use only a 6F22 or 006P 9V dry cell battery.

Other power sources may damage the device.

♦ For maximum battery life, always be sure the tuner is turned OFF when not in use.

♦ To prevent possible damage due to leakage of battery fluid, remove the battery from

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

• Electric Guitar/Bass Tuning

1. Connect the guitar cord to the INPUT jack @. (At this time, the OUTPUT jack O 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.
