PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
Especially in the case of children, a guardian should provide guidance on how to properly use and handle the product before actual use.
Please keep this manual in a safe and handy place for future reference.

WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

Power supply

• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators. Also, do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, or place heavy objects on it.

• Do not touch the product or the power plug during an electrical storm.

• Only use the correct voltage specified for the product.
  The required voltage is printed on the nameplate of the product.

• Use the specified AC adaptor (page 20).

• Check the power plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have accumulated on it.

• Insert the power plug firmly all the way into the AC outlet. Using the product when it is not plugged in sufficiently can cause dust to accumulate on the plug, possibly resulting in fire or skin burns.

• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is turned off, as long as the power cord is not unplugged from the wall AC outlet, the product will not be disconnected from the power source.

• Do not connect the product to an electrical outlet using a multi-plug outlet extender. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the outlet.

• When disconnecting the power plug, always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it and cause electric shocks or a fire.

• If not using the product for long periods of time, be sure to pull the power plug from the AC outlet.

Do not disassemble

• This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt to disassemble the internal parts or modify them in any way.

Water warning

• Do not expose the product to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet conditions, or place on it any containers (such as vases, bottles or glasses) containing liquids that might spill into any openings or places where water may drop. A liquid such as water getting into the product may cause a fire, electric shocks, or malfunctions.
• Use the AC adaptor indoors only. Do not use in any wet environments.
• Never insert or remove a power plug with wet hands.

Fire warning

• Do not place any burning items or open flames near the product, since they may cause a fire.

Using the bench (if included)

• Do not place the bench in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over.

• Do not play carelessly with or stand on the bench.
  Using it as a tool or stepladder or for any other purpose might result in an accident or injury.

• Only one person should sit on the bench at a time, in order to prevent the possibility of accident or injury.

• If the bench screws become loose due to extensive long-term use, tighten them periodically using the specified tool in order to prevent the possibility of accident or injury.

• Keep special watch over any small children so that they don’t fall off the rear of the bench. Since the bench does not have a backrest, unsupervised use may result in accidents or injuries.

If you notice any abnormality

• If any of the following problems occur, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the power plug from the outlet. Finally, have the device inspected by Yamaha service personnel.
  – The power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged.
  – Unusual smells or smoke is emitted.
  – Some object or water has been dropped into the product.
  – There is a sudden loss of sound during the use of the product.
  – Cracks or other visible damage appear on the product.

Using the Pedals

Damper Pedal (Right)
Pressing this pedal will sustain notes longer.
Releasing this pedal immediately stops (damps) any sustained notes. This pedal also features a “half-pedal” function that creates partial sustain effects, depending on how far down you press the pedal.

When you press the damper pedal here, this note and the notes you play before you release the pedal sustain longer.

NOTE
If the damper pedal doesn’t work, make sure that the pedal cord is properly plugged into the main unit (page 18).
Half-pedal function
This function allows you to vary the sustain length depending on how far the pedal is pressed. The farther down you press the pedal, the more the sound sustains. For example, if you press the damper pedal and all notes you are playing sound a bit murky and loud with too much sustain, you can release the pedal half way or higher to decrease the sustain (murkiness).
Damper Resonance
When only piano Voices (page 15) is selected, pressing the damper pedal activates the Damper Resonance effect (page 12) to recreate the resonance of an acoustic piano’s strings.
NOTE
Damper Resonance cannot be used in Duo.

Sostenuto Pedal (Center)
Pressing this pedal while holding the notes will sustain the pressed notes (as if the Damper Pedal had been pressed), but all subsequently played notes will not be sustained. This makes it possible to sustain a chord or single low note, for example, while the other notes are played “staccato.”

When you press the sostenuto pedal here while holding the note, the note will sustain as long as you hold the pedal.

NOTE
While the sostenuto pedal is held, the organ and strings Voices sound continuously without decay after the notes have been released.

Soft Pedal (Left)
Pressing this pedal will reduce the volume and slightly change the timbre of the notes. The notes played before this pedal is pressed are not affected.
Pedal function in Duo (page 12)
In Duo, the pedal function changes as follows.

• Right Pedal: Damper pedal for the right-hand range.
• Center Pedal: Damper pedal for both the righthand and left-hand ranges.
• Left Pedal: Damper pedal for the left-hand range.
