Power Supply

Either an AC adaptor or batteries can be used to power this Digital Keyboard. Normally, use of AC adaptor power is recommended.

• The AC adaptor does not come with this Digital Keyboard. Purchase it separately from your retailer. See page E-1 for information about options.

Using the AC Adaptor

Make sure that you use only the AC adaptor specified for this Digital Keyboard. Use of a different type of AC adaptor can cause malfunction.

Specified AC Adaptor: AD-E95100L

(JEITA Standard plug)

Household power outlet DC 9.5V terminal

Using Batteries

• Be sure to turn off power before loading batteries.

• It is up to you to prepare six commercially available AA-size batteries. Do not use oxyride batteries or any other nickel based batteries.

Open the battery cover on the bottom of the Digital Keyboard.

Load six AA-size batteries into the battery compartment.

Make sure the positive + and negative - ends of the batteries are facing as shown in the illustration.

Insert the tabs of the battery cover into the holes on the side of the battery compartment, and close the cover.

Tabs

English

AC adaptor

• Be sure to turn off Digital Keyboard power before connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor.

• The AC adaptor will become warm to the touch after very long use. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.

• To prevent breaking of the wire, take care to avoid putting any type of load on the power cord.

No bending! No winding!

• Never insert metal, pencils, or any other objects into the product’s 9.5V DC terminal. Doing so creates the risk of accident.

■ Low Battery Indication

The indicator shown below starts to flash to let you know when battery power is low. Replace the batteries with new ones.

Using Headphones

Using headphones cuts off output from the built-in speakers, which means you can practice playing even late at night without disturbing others.

• Be sure to turn down the volume level before connecting headphones.

PHONES/OUTPUT jack

• Headphones do not come with the Digital Keyboard.

• Use commercially available headphones. See page E-1 for information about options.

• Do not listen to very high volume output over headphones for long period. Doing so creates the risk of hearing damage.

• If you are using headphones that require an adaptor plug, make sure you do not leave the adaptor plugged in when removing the headphones.

Changing Keyboard Response to Touch Pressure (Touch Response) (LK-240/LK-247 only

Touch Response alters tone volume in accordance with keyboard pressure (speed). This provides you some of the same expressivity you get on an acoustic piano.

465.9 Hz. The initial default setting is 440.0 Hz.

Sampling a Sound and Playing It on the Keyboard (Sampling)

You can use the Digital Keyboard to sample a sound from a microphone, and then play the sound with the keyboard keys or voice pads. For example, you could sample the bark of your dog and then use the sound in a melody. The sampling feature is a great way to create new sounds that are highly creative.

Connection

Connect a microphone.

MIC IN/SAMPLING jack

• Use of a commercially available microphone also is supported.

• Turn off the microphone and the Digital Keyboard before connecting them.
