General Guide

Using the T/NO and S/YES Buttons

Use the T/NO and S/YES buttons to change the currently displayed setting as you view the results of your changes on the display.

Example: Rhythm number 01

• The rhythm number (page E-17) appears first whenever you turn on the digital piano. See the applicable pages in this manual for detailed information about each type of setting.

• Each press of the T/NO and S/YES button will increase or decrease the displayed value by 1.

NOTE

• Holding down either button will scroll continually through the available settings.

• To return the displayed setting to its initial default value, press the T/NO and S/YES buttons at the same time. The initial default tempo is the recommended tempo setting for the currently selected rhythm or built-in song.

Returning the Digital Piano to Its Factory Default Settings

Perform the following procedure when you want to return the digital piano’s stored data and settings to their initial factory defaults.

While the digital piano is turned off, hold

down the RHYTHM, and FUNCTION buttons as you press the POWER button to turn on power.

• This will initialize the digital piano and then perform system setup.

NOTE

• It will take some time for the digital piano initialization procedure complete. During that time, the display contents will be different from those that normally appear when you turn on power (page E-10).

Saving Settings and Using Operation Lock

Your digital piano lets you save its current settings, and lock its buttons to protect against operation errors. For details, see “Secondary Parameter Reference” on page E-34.

E-5

Power Outlet

Your digital piano runs on standard household power. Be sure to turn off power whenever you are not using the digital piano.

Using an AC Adaptor

Use only the AC adaptor that is specified for use with this digital piano.

Specified AC Adaptor: AD-12

Left Side

DC 12V terminal

AC adaptor

AD-12

Household power

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 digital piano, 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.

IMPORTANT!

• Make sure the digital piano is turned off before plugging in or unplugging the AC adaptor.

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

E-6

Connections

Connecting Headphones

IMPORTANT!

• Before connecting headphones, be sure to use the digital piano’s VOLUME controller to turn the volume down to a low level. After connecting, you can adjust the volume to the level you want.

• The digital piano automatically adjusts sound output to optimize for headphones (when headphones are connected) or the built-in speakers (when headphones are not connected).

Back

PEDAL jacks

Left Side

PHONES jack

Commercially available headphones

Mini plug

Connect commercially available headphones to the

PHONES jack. Connecting headphones to the PHONES jack cuts off output to the speakers, which

means you can practice even late at night without bothering others. To protect your hearing, make sure that you do not set the volume level too high when using headphones.

Connecting a Pedal

The back of the digital piano has two pedal jacks, one for a damper pedal and one for a soft/sostenuto pedal.

SP-3

NOTE

• You can specify the type of operation that should be performed by the pedal connected to the SOFT/ SOSTENUTO PEDAL jack. See “Other Settings” on page E-32 for more information.

Pedal Functions

z Damper Pedal

Pressing the damper pedal while playing will cause the notes you play to reverberate for a very long time.

• Whenever a piano tone is selected, pressing this pedal will activate the digital piano’s Acoustic Resonance effect, which causes notes to resonate in the same way as when the damper pedal on an acoustic piano is pressed.

z Soft Pedal

Pressing this pedal suppresses notes played on the keyboard after the pedal was pressed, and makes them sound softer.

To connect to the pedal jack

Depending on the type of operation you want the pedal (SP-3) to perform, connect the pedal’s cable either to the digital piano’s DAMPER PEDAL jack or SOFT/SOSTENUTO PEDAL jack. If you want to use both operations (jack) at the same time, you need to purchase another optionally available pedal.

z Sostenuto Pedal

Only the notes that are played while this pedal are depressed are sustained until the pedal is released.

E-7

Connections

Pedal Connector

You can connect the optionally available 3-Pedal Unit (SP-30) to the pedal connector on the bottom of the digital piano. You can then use the pedals for expression that is similar to that available on an acoustic piano.

Bottom

Pedal connector

NOTE

• The SP-30 Pedal Unit supports half-pedal operation (pressing the pedal part way), and you can adjust the amount of the pedal effect applied when the pedal is pressed part way. See “Other Settings” on page E-32 for more information.

• The optional CS-65P or CS-66P stand is required in order to use the SP-30 Pedal Unit.

Connecting Audio Equipment or an Amplifier

You can connect audio equipment or a music amplifier to the digital piano and then play through external speakers for more powerful volume and better sound quality.

IMPORTANT!

• The digital piano automatically adjusts sound output to optimize for headphone output (when headphones are connected) or built-in speaker output (when headphones are not connected). This also will cause a change in the output quality from the digital piano’s LINE OUT R and L/MONO jacks.

• Whenever connecting something to the digital piano, first use the VOLUME controller to set the volume to a low level. After connecting, you can adjust the volume to the level you want.

• Whenever you connect any device to the digital piano, be sure to read the user documentation that comes with the device.

Playing Output from External Equipment through the Piano’s Speakers 1

LINE IN R jack input sounds through the piano’s right speaker, while LINE IN L/MONO jack input sounds through the left speaker. Connecting to the LINE IN L/MONO jack only causes the same output to be produced from both speakers. It is up to you to purchase connecting cables that are compatible with the equipment you are connecting.

Connecting to Audio Equipment 2

Use commercially available cables to connect the external audio equipment to the piano’s LINE OUT jacks as shown in Figure 2. LINE OUT R jack output is right channel sound, while LINE OUT 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 piano is connected. Use the piano’s VOLUME controller to adjust the volume level.

Connections

Connecting to a Musical Instrument Amplifier 3

Use commercially available cables to connect the amplifier to the piano’s LINE OUT jacks as shown in Figure 3. LINE OUT R jack output is right channel sound, while LINE OUT L/MONO jack output is left channel sound. Connecting to the LINE OUT 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 piano’s VOLUME controller to adjust the volume level.

Bundled and Optional Accessories

Use only accessories that are specified for use with this digital piano. Use of unauthorized accessories creates the risk of fire, electric shock, and personal injury.
