I can see four main possibilities:

1) Like above, but you do not like that option

2) Keep the nonstandard bindings and tell the user about it. This can be 
done the way Kim suggested (a small yellow screen with a details link). 
The changed bindings can be marked in the tutorial text or they can be 
marked and replaced.

3) A combination of 1 and 2. Let the user decide. (This is perhaps a bit 
complicated for a tutorial.)

4) Stop the user from running the tutorial. I do not like this option.
