Setting Description
SOFT The left pedal functions as the soft pedal (basic setting). (See
page 40.)

HARMONY When the Harmony function is set to on, Harmony is applied
only while the left pedal is held down. (See page 69.)
REGISTRATION The panel settings registered to the next Registration number
are recalled each time the left pedal is pressed. (See page 91.)
REG.FREEZE The left pedal switches the Registration Freeze function on and
off; that is, it performs the same function as the FREEZE button

the song end ritardando (slow down gradually) by pressing the
left pedal twice in succession. (See page 56.)
BREAK
Pressing the left pedal during style playback produces a break
in the accompaniment and rhythm for as long as the pedal is
held. When the pedal is released, normal playback resumes
from the next measure. If you press the left pedal a second
time within one measure, normal playback resumes immedi-
ately.
BREAK FIL
Pressing the left pedal during style playback causes the
Clavinova to play a special “break fill-in” pattern. This pattern is
different from the fill-in patterns produced by the Auto Fill func-
tion. (See page 51.)

Auto Accompaniment will be held even if the chord is changed.
This function does not work when FULL KEYBOARD is se-
lected as the accompaniment mode (page 61).

OUT] button. (See pages 55 and 56.)
