MODERN

CLASSIC

This tone provides a bright grand piano

sound. The volume and timbre of this

tone is quick to respond to different

keyboard pressures, and it has

relatively strong reverb. This tone is a

good choice for dynamic and lively

performances.

This is a natural piano tone that closely

resembles the sound of an acoustic

piano. Though reverb and other flashy

effects are subdued for this tone,

resonance is more pronounced, which

enables expression of delicate nuances.

This tone is a good choice for lesson

and practice sessions.

5, or 6. Specifying 0 as the setting plays a straight

click, without any chime. This setting lets you

practice with a steady beat.

z Soft Pedal

Pressing this pedal while playing suppresses notes

played on the keyboard after the pedal was pressed,

and makes them sound softer.

While holding down the FUNCTION button,

use the TEMPO keys to specify a tempo

value in the range of 20 to 255 beats per

minute.

z Sostenuto Pedal

Only the notes of the keys that are depressed when this

pedal is pressed are sustained until the pedal is

released.

• Each press of the + or – key raises or lowers the

tempo value by 1.

• You can use the value input keys (0 to 9) to enter a

specific three-digit. Be sure to input all three digits.

the PHONES jack cuts off output to the speakers,

which means you can practice even late at night

without bothering others. To protect your hearing,

make sure that you do not set the volume level too high

when using headphones.

■ About the AC adaptor that comes with the

Digital Piano

Note the following important precautions to avoid

damage to the AC adaptor and power cord.

• Never pull on the cord with excessive force.

• Never repeatedly pull on the cord.

• Never twist the cord at the base of the plug or

connector.

• Before moving the Digital Piano, be sure to unplug

the AC adaptor from the power outlet.

• Loop and bundle the power cord, but never wind it

around the AC adaptor.

NOTE

• Be sure to push the headphones plug into the

PHONES jacks as far as it will go. If you don’t, you

may hear sound from only one side of the

headphones.

• If the plug of the headphones you are using does not

match the PHONES jacks, use the applicable

commercially available adaptor plug.

IMPORTANT!

• Never connect the AC adaptor that comes with this

Digital Piano to any other device besides this Digital

Piano. Doing so creates the risk of malfunction.

• Make sure the Digital Piano is turned off before

plugging in or unplugging the AC adaptor.

• The AC adaptor will become warm to the touch after

very long use. This is normal and does not indicate

malfunction.

• If you are using headphones that require an adaptor

plug, make sure you do not leave the adaptor

plugged in when you unplug the headphones. If you

do, nothing will sound from the speakers when you

play.

• Use the AC adaptor so its label surface is pointed

downwards. The AC adaptor becomes prone to

emitting electromagnetic waves when the label

surface is facing upwards.

Connecting to a Musical Instrument

Amplifier 2

Connecting Audio Equipment

or an Amplifier

You can connect audio equipment or a music amplifier

to the Digital Piano and then play through external

speakers for more powerful volume and better sound

quality.

Use commercially available cables to connect the

amplifier to the Digital Piano’s LINE OUT jacks as

shown in Figure 2. LINE OUT R jack output is right

channel sound, while LINE OUT L/MONO jack

output is left channel sound. Connecting to the LINE

OUT L/MONO jack only outputs a mixture of both

channels. It is up to you to purchase connecting cable

like the one shown in the illustration for connection of

the amplifier. Use the Digital Piano’s VOLUME

controller to adjust the volume level.

IMPORTANT!

• The Digital Piano automatically adjusts sound output

to optimize for headphone output (when headphones

are connected) or built-in speaker output (when

headphones are not connected). This also will cause

a change in the output quality from the Digital

Piano’s LINE OUT R and L/MONO jacks.

• Whenever connecting a device to the Digital Piano,

first use the VOLUME controller to set the volume to

a low level. After connecting, you can adjust the

volume to the level you want.

IMPORTANT!

• When using the LINE OUT jacks, also connect

headphones to the PHONES jack. This will switch

the LINE OUT output to appropriate sound quality.

• Whenever you connect any device to the Digital

Piano, be sure to read the user documentation that

comes with the device.

Bundled and Optional

Accessories

Use only accessories that are specified for use with this
