How to Use an Intellitouch PT10 Mini Clip-On Tuner
The PT10 Mini tuner is a lightweight, compact clip-on instrument tuner for electric guitars, acoustic guitars, violins, banjos and other string instruments. It weighs less than 2 ounces and runs on a CR2032 coin cell battery. The PT10 does not use wires or a microphone to hear the instrument you are tuning; it feels the note through vibrations. This means the PT10 is accurate even when you have distracting background noises in the room. The backlit LCD screen makes the PT10 easy to read even in low light environments.

Tips & Warnings
The frequency 440 Hz is the standard tuning reference for musical pitch. However, you can adjust the A-reference setting on the P10 tuner if you want to tune to another reference. Press the button just below the power button on the right side of the tuner. Each press of the button adjusts the reference one step at a time between 430 Hz and 450 Hz.
The PT10 automatically shuts off if it does not detect a note for two minutes.
The manufacturer does not recommend leaving the PT10 tuner attached to your instrument for more than four hours, as it may damage the lacquer.
