    ■FINGERED 1, 2, and 3
    With these three input modes, you play chords on the 
    accompaniment keyboard using their normal chord fingerings. 
    Some chord forms are abbreviated, and can be fingered with 
    one or two keys.
    See page E-42 for information about chords that are 
    supported and how they are fingered on the keyboard.
    ●FINGERED 1
    Play the component notes of the chord on 
    the keyboard.
    ●FINGERED 2
    Unlike FINGERED 1, 6th input is not 
    possible. m7 or m7
    b5 is input.
    ●FINGERED 3
    Unlike FINGERED 1, allows input of 
    fraction chords with the lowest keyboard 
    note as the bass note.
    ■CASIO CHORD
    With CASIO CHORD, you can use 
    simplified fingerings to play the four types 
    of chords described below.CASIO CHORD Fingering
     When playing a minor, seventh, or minor seventh chord, it 
    makes no different whether the additional keys you press 
    are black or white.
    ■FULL RANGE CHORD
    With this mode, you can use the full range 
    of the keyboard to play chords and the 
    melody.
    See page E-42 for information about 
    chords that are supported.
