Safety Instructions
Notice: Ensure you read and fully understand instructions before use
While every attempt is made to ensure the highest degree of protection in all equipment, we cannot
guarantee freedom from injury. The user assumes all risk of injury due to use. All merchandise is sold on

Getting Acquainted
Let’s take a quick tour of your accordion. First, slip your left hand
under the strap, hook your right thumb through the loop under the
keyboard and use your remaining three fingers to play the seven
individual melody keys. There are also three buttons within easy
reach of the fingers on your left hand. These buttons perform a very
important function; two of the keys will play your bass notes while
the third key allows you to take a “breath” while you are playing.
How Does It Work
The accordion produces sound when the bellows expand and contract
making the air flow over the different size reeds inside the instrument. By
pressing one of the white melody keys and then alternatively pulling and
then pushing together the accordion you will find that each key will
produce two notes. There are seven keys.

How to Play
After getting acquainted with holding the accordion, you can now proceed
with some playing exercises. Starting with the first key, let’s try a scale.
When pushing the bellows together the keys 1, 3, 5 produce Do, Mi, So
notes and the keys 2, 4, 6, 7 produce Re, Fa, La, Ti when pulling apart.
To get comfortable with your new instrument, let’s start a little scale
exercise. Start by expanding the accordion bellows. Gently and evenly
begin pushing it back together while holding the first key down, keep
holding the note key down while you switch directions by pulling the
accordion apart. Jump to the next key and push in and pull apart. Jump
once more and you have now played Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La.
You will notice that at the fourth note key (Ti, Do) the action is reversed to
stay in the scale. By reversing the pattern, the lower sound will be
produced by pulling the higher sound then pushing. Just remember keys
4-7 operate in reverse of keys 1-3.
Practice this pushing and pulling action as you move up and down the
scales by pressing each key in sequence, first slowly and then in increased
speed until the whole scale has been mastered. (Remember to switch
direction at the fourth key.) It will take a little practice not to run out of air
while you move through the scales, but you can always use the air valve to
take a “breath” if you need more air. The air valve is pressed using your
left hand.
There are 3 buttons that you can play with your left hand. The first button
is the harmonic button, the middle button is the bass button and the third
button is the air valve.
While playing a tune you can add dimension by pressing one of the two
left handed bass buttons.
