Using this keyboard is easy. First, you can choose to power it with a cord or batteries. Then, turn it on and start exploring the 100 tones and 5 percussion settings. You can use the teaching function to learn basic music. If you want to record your music, just use the record option. For a more private play, plug in headphones and adjust the volume. When it comes to maintenance, keep it away from water and dust. If it gets dirty, use a soft, dry cloth to clean it. And remember, don't expose it to extreme temperatures.
