If you notice that the power cord shows obvious signs of use, the unit malfunctions, smells
burnt, or smokes, unplug the unit immediately and have a technician repair it.
Before cleaning the instrument, disconnect it from the power supply.
Always place the instrument on a level, stable surface to ensure safe standing.
Do not use the instrument in a damp or wet environment.
Do not place vessels on it that are filled with liquids, such as vases, glasses or bottles.
Do not place small objects on it that could slide in, such as hairpins, sewing needles or coins.

Precautions
To avoid damage to the instrument, do not place it in places with high temperatures or a lot of dust, do not place it directly next to an air conditioner, and avoid direct sunlight.
Do not place the instrument near other electrical equipment to avoid interference.
Do not use any force when handling the instrument and do not place any heavy objects on the instrument.
Disconnect the instrument from the power supply if you are not going to use it for a long time. To disconnect the instrument from the power, please pull the plug, not the cable.
Please handle the power cable with care. It should not be placed near radiators, you should not place heavy objects on it, and you should lay it in such a way that no person could step on it or fall over it.
Please note that continuous high volume can permanently damage your hearing. Therefore, adjust the volume carefully.
Only clean the instrument with a soft, dry cloth (if necessary, a slightly damp cloth can also be used for heavier soiling). Do not use any chemical cleaning agents (no thinners, solvents, alcohol) or impregnated cleaning cloths for cleaning.

Power supply unit
Please connect the supplied power supply to a power outlet with the correct voltage. Do not connect it to other mains voltages than those for which the instrument is intended. Unplug this product from the wall outlet when unused for long periods of time or during lightning storms

Assembly

First remove all individual parts from the outer packaging.

Mount two legs on each of the two support plates. First provide the corresponding holes of the holding plates with a dowel, then insert the matching leg and fix it with two hexagon socket screws each. To position the legs correctly, simply align the respective L1, L2, R1 and R2 stickers with each other, as shown in the following graphic, so that they lie on top of each other after assembly.

Carefully place the console (1) upside down on a soft surface.

Securely fasten the mounting plates with the assembled support legs (2) to the console using the six plastic head screws (3).
Now lift the instrument and place it on its legs.
Caution: Have a second person help you with this. Make sure that you do not put weight on one side of the legs when turning the instrument over.

If you want to use the supplied pedal unit, connect the multipin plug of the pedal cable to the socket on the underside of the piano. Make sure that the connector pins are in the correct position. Do not apply force to the connector of the pedal cable.

The included music holder can be easily placed on the top of the instrument at the desired position if needed

Connection panel on the underside

USB to Host
The USB to Host jack allows you to connect your piano to a computer using a USB A->B cable.

MIDI In/Out
The MIDI Out jack allows you to send MIDI data to an external MIDI-capable device.

The MIDI In jack allows your piano to receive MIDI data from an external signal source.

Audio In
The Audio In input allows you to play music signals from an external music source through your piano’s speakers

Audio Out
The Audio Out connector allows you to connect your piano to a music amplifier.

Power supply socket
Only use the instrument with the supplied power supply unit.
First connect the hollow plug of the power supply unit to the power supply unit socket on the instrument. Then connect the power supply unit to the power socket.

Controls and headphone jacks on the underside

Power
With the power switch you put your instrument into operation.
Your piano has a high-quality piano sound, which was created using the digital audio analog sampling method.
Please turn off your instrument when not in use to save energy.

Auto Power Off
This instrument has an Auto Power Off function. To save power, the piano will turn itself off if it is not used for an extended period of time.

Volume
This knob allows you to adjust the volume of your piano playing.

Headphone jacks (Headphones)
The two headphone jacks right next to the volume control can be used simultaneously.
Connecting headphones to one of the headphone jacks disables the instrument’s speakers.

Ensure that the volume setting is appropriate. Excessive volume or the use of headphones for too long can cause hearing damage.

Keyboard slide

The DP-730 has a unique keyboard slide, which allows the keyboard to disappear invisibly, as if in a drawer. The keyboard is thus perfectly protected from dust and other disturbing factors and the instrument blends discreetly and harmoniously into the room design.

Simply pull out the keyboard slide (1), comparable to a drawer, by the handle as far as it will go and then fold down the keyboard panel (2). To close the instrument, proceed in reverse order.

Functionality of the pedals

Your instrument has a lightweight and stable three-pedal unit, which can be connected to the console via a multipin cable if required.

Sustain
The right pedal (Sustain) simulates the lifting of all dampers in the real grand piano and thus causes all struck strings to continue to sound even after the respective key is released. This gives the instrument a fuller tone in many playing situations.

Sostenuto
The middle pedal (Sostenuto) simulates the lifting of individual dampers in the real grand piano and thus causes the sound of the note(s) struck directly before the pedal application to continue. All notes played after the pedal is applied remain staccato (short).

Soft
The left pedal (Soft) simulates the shifting of the touch action in the real grand piano and thus causes a somewhat muted and quieter sound of the instrument. The tonal effect of the Soft pedal is very subtle, as with the real grand piano, and only noticeably changes the sound when used in conjunction with the Sustain pedal.
