Turning Chord Intelligence On/Off (Chord Intelli)

“Chord Intelligence” is a feature that intelligently plays the correct accompaniment chords the moment you play a key specifying a chord on the Lower keyboard during Automatic Accompaniment.

To play a C chord on the Lower keyboard, for example, you usually have to press down the three keys C, E, and G; but with Chord Intelligence, you only have to press the C Key to initiate a C chord accompaniment.
