C. BECHSTEIN

VARIO · MANUAL

The two display stands supplied with the VARIO digital
system enable a tablet (or smartphone) to be held in
place on the piano’s music stand (C. Bechstein family, W.
Hoffmann, Zimmermann). The rubberized material is non-
slip and can easily be hooked in between the music stand
and the keyboard lid (see illustration).

Please note that your mobile device will not be completely
secured against falling down by (for example) pulling the
USB or headphone cable.

Hint: The display stand is also available as an optional
accessory from your dealer.
