The serial number of this product may be found on the bottom of the unit. [. . . ] Successive chords in a chord progression can be smoothly connected, for example, by choosing the appropriate inversions (or chord "voicings").
Reading Chord Names
Chord names tell you just about everything you need to know about a chord (other than the inversion/voicing). The chord name tells you what the root of the chord is, whether it is a major, minor, or diminished chord, whether it requires a major or flatted seventh, what alterations or tensions it uses . . . all at a glance.

* These chords are not shown in the Dictionary function.
NOTE · Notes in parentheses can be omitted.
· Playing two same root keys in the adjacent octaves produces accompaniment based only on the root. · A perfect fifth (1+5) produces accompaniment based only on the root and fifth which can be used with both major and minor chords. · The chord fingerings listed are all in "root" position, but other inversions can be used--with the following exceptions: m7, m7b5, 6, m6, sus4, aug, dim7, 7b5, 6(9), 1+2+5.
NOTE · Inversion of the 7sus4 and m7(11) chords are not recognized if the notes shown in parentheses are omitted.
· The auto accompaniment will sometimes not change when related chords are played in sequence (e. g. some minor chords followed by the minor seventh). · Two-note fingerings will produce a chord based on the previously played chord.

paniment section of the keyboard, checking the indications in the display. When you've played the chord properly, a bell sound signals your success and the chord name in the display flash.
