How to read this manual

• Functions found only on the TD-15 are indicated by the icon.
• Buttons on the panel are enclosed by square brackets [ ]; for example, the [SETUP] button.
• Buttons corresponding to function buttons shown in the display are referred to as (for example) the [F3] (XSTICK) button.
