IMPORTANT!
•Whenever connecting external equipment, first set the
VOLUME slider of the digital piano and the volume controller of the external equipment to relatively low volume settings. You can later adjust volume to the level you want after connections are complete.
•Be sure also to refer to the documentation that comes with the external equipment for its proper connection procedures.
Connecting Headphones 1
Connect commercially available headphones to the digital piano’s headphones jack. This cuts off the built-in speakers, which means you can practice even late at night without disturbing others. To protect your hearing, make sure that you do not set the volume level too high when using headphones.
Connecting to Audio Equipment 2
Use commercially available cables to connect the external audio equipment to the digital piano's LINE OUT jacks as shown in Figure 2. R jack output is right channel sound, while L/MONO jack output is left channel sound. It is up to you to purchase connecting cables like the ones shown in the illustration for connection of audio equipment. Normally in this configuration you must set the audio equipment's input selector to the setting that specifies the terminal (such as AUX IN) to which the digital piano is connected. Use the digital piano's VOLUME slider to adjust the volume level.
Connecting to a Musical Instrument
Amplifier 3
Use commercially available cables to connect the amplifier to the digital piano's LINE OUT jacks as shown in Figure 3. R jack output is right channel sound, while L/MONO jack output is left channel sound. Connecting to the 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 slider to adjust the volume level.
Accessories and Options
Use only the accessories and options specified for this digital piano. Use of non-authorized items creates the danger of fire, electric shock, and personal injury.
