Important Battery Information

■

The following shows the approximate battery life.

Alkaline batteries .......................... <CTK-810> 2.5 hours

Manganese batteries ..................... <WK-110> 6 hours

The above value is standard battery life at normal temperature, with the keyboard volume at medium setting. Temperature extremes or playing at very loud volume settings can shorten battery life.

WARNING

• Never try to take batteries apart or allow them to become shorted.

• Never expose batteries to heat or dispose of them by incineration.

• Never mix old batteries with new ones.

• Never mix batteries of different types.

• Do not charge the batteries.

• Make sure the positive (+) and negative (–) ends of

the batteries are facing correctly.

CAUTION

Misuse of batteries can cause them to leak resulting in damage to nearby objects, or to explode, creating the risk of fire and personal injury. Always make sure you observe the following precautions.

• Use only batteries that are specified for use with this product.

• Remove batteries from the product if you do not plan to use it for a long time.

Using the AC Adaptor

Make sure that you use only the AC adaptor specified for this keyboard.

Specified AC Adaptor: AD-5

[Rear Panel]

DC 9V jack

Note the following important precautions to avoid damage to the power cord.

● During Use

• 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.

• The power cord should not be stretched tight while it is

in use.

● During Movement

• Before moving the keyboard, be sure to unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet.

● During Storage

• Loop and bundle the power cord, but never wind it around the AC adaptor.

AC adaptor AD-5

AC outlet

NOTE

• Do not use an oxyride battery or any other type of nickelbased primary battery with this product. Incompatibility between such batteries and product specifications can result in shorter battery life and product malfunction.

E-16

IMPORTANT!

• Make sure that the keyboard is turned off before connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor.

• Using the AC adaptor for a long time can cause it to become warm to the touch. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.

Auto Power Off

When you are using battery power, keyboard power turns off automatically whenever you leave it on without performing any operation for about 6 minutes. When this happens, press the POWER button to turn power back on.

NOTE

• Auto Power Off is disabled (it does not function) when you are using the AC adaptor to power the keyboard.

To disable Auto Power Off

Hold down the TONE button while turning on the keyboard to disable Auto Power Off.

NOTE

• When this function is turned off, the keyboard does not turn off automatically no matter how long it is left with no operation being performed.

• Auto Power Off is enabled again when you manually turn off power and then turn it back on again.

Power Supply

Memory Contents

Registration memory contents, recorder memory contents, and song bank data you transfer from a computer to keyboard memory are all retained when the keyboard is turned off, either by pressing the power button or by Auto Power Off.

Electrical Power

The memory contents described above are retained as long as the keyboard is being supplied with electrical power. Unplugging the AC adaptor when batteries are not loaded or when loaded batteries are dead cuts off the keyboard’s electrical power supply. This clears all data stored in memory.

Power Requirements

Note the following precautions whenever you want to ensure that current memory contents are not lost.

• Make sure the keyboard is being supplied power through the AC adaptor before replacing its batteries.

• Before unplugging the AC adaptor, make sure that fresh batteries are loaded in the keyboard.

Make sure that keyboard power is turned off before replacing batteries or unplugging the AC adaptor.

Connections

Phones/Output Terminal

PREPARATION

• Before connecting headphones or other external equipment, be sure to first turn down the volume settings of the keyboard and the connected equipment. You can then adjust volume to the desired level after connections are complete.

Connecting Headphones (Figure 1)

Connecting headphones cuts off output from the keyboard’s built-in speakers, so you can play even late at night without disturbing anyone.

Audio Equipment (Figure 2)

Connect the keyboard to an audio equipment using a commercially available connecting cord with a standard plug on one end and two PIN plugs on the other end. Note that the standard plug you connect to the keyboard must be a stereo plug, otherwise you will be able to output only one of stereo channels. In this configuration, you normally set the input selector of the audio equipment to the terminal (usually marked AUX IN or something similar) where the cord from the keyboard is connected. See the user documentation that comes with your audio equipment for full details.

Musical Instrument Amplifier (Figure 3)

Use a commercially available connecting cord to connect the keyboard to a musical instrument amplifier.

NOTE

• Be sure to use a connecting cord that has a stereo standard plug on the end you connect to the keyboard, and a connector that provides dual channel (left and right) input to the amplifier to which you are connecting. The wrong type of connector at either end can cause one of the stereo channels to be lost.

When connected to a musical instrument amplifier, set the volume of the keyboard to a relatively low level and make output volume adjustments using the amplifier’s controls.

Sustain/Assignable jack Terminal

You can connect an optional sustain pedal (SP-3 or SP-20) to the SUSTAIN/ASSIGNABLE JACK terminal to enable the capabilities described below.

For details on how to select the pedal function you want, see “SUSTAIN/ASSIGNABLE JACK (Default: SUS)” on page E-53.

SUSTAIN/ASSIGNABLE JACK Terminal

SP-20

Sustain Pedal

• With piano tones, depressing the pedal causes notes to linger, much like a piano’s damper pedal.

• With organ tones, depressing the pedal causes notes to continue to sound until the pedal is released.

Connections

Sostenuto Pedal

• As with the sustain pedal function described above, depressing the sostenuto pedal causes notes to be sustained.

• This difference between a sostenuto pedal and sustain pedal is the timing. With a sostenuto pedal, you press the keys and then depress the pedal before you release the keys.

• Only the notes that are sounding when the pedal is depressed are sustained.

Soft Pedal

Depressing the pedal softens the sound of the notes being played.

Rhythm Start/Stop Pedal

Polyphony

The term polyphony refers to the maximum number of notes you can play at the same time. The keyboard has 32-note polyphony, which includes the notes you play as well as the rhythms and auto-accompaniment patterns that are played by the keyboard. This means that when a rhythm or autoaccompaniment pattern is being played by the keyboard, the number of notes (polyphony) available for keyboard play is reduced. Also note that some of the tones offer only 16-note polyphony.

• When rhythm or auto accompaniment is playing, the number of sounds simultaneously played is reduced.
