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 (JEITA Standard, with unified polarity plug) that comes with this Digital Piano. Use of a different type of AC adaptor can cause malfunction of the Digital Piano.

Specified AC Adaptor: AD-A12150LW

• Use the supplied power cord to connect the AC

adaptor as shown in the illustration below.

Using Batteries

You can use eight AA-size batteries for power.

• Use alkaline batteries.

Never use oxyride or any other nickel based batteries.

On the back of the Digital Piano on the right, loosen the two screws that secure the battery cover in place.

• The screws are designed so they can be loosened

only, and not come completely out.

Screws

Household power outlet

Power cord

DC 12V terminal AC adaptor

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

• Configuration and type depends on your geographic location.

■ 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.

■ During Movement

• Before moving the Digital Piano, be sure to unplug

the AC adaptor from the power outlet.

Battery cover

Slide the battery cover away from you to remove it.

Load eight AA-size batteries into the battery compartment.

• Make sure the positive + and negative - ends of the

batteries are facing as shown in the illustration.

■ During Storage

• Loop and bundle the power cord, but never wind it

around the AC adaptor.

IMPORTANT!

• Never connect the AC adaptor (JEITA Standard, with unified polarity plug) that comes with this Digital Piano to any other device besides this Digital Piano. Doing so creates the risk of malfunction.

• 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.

Replace the battery cover and slide it towards you (the reverse of what you did in step 2) to close it.

• Make sure that the tabs of the battery cover engage

with the tabs of the Digital Piano.

Secure the battery cover by tightening the two screws you loosened in step 1.

temperatures, and certain other playing conditions can shorten battery life.

Low battery power is indicated by the button lamp flashing. Replace the batteries with new ones.

(EFFECT)

Turning Power On or Off

Press the bk (P) button to turn on Digital Piano power.

• Use the Digital Piano’s VOLUME controller (bl) to

adjust the volume.

To turn off the Digital Piano, hold down the bk (P) button until the Digital Piano’s display goes blank.

NOTE

• Pressing the bk (P) button to turn off power actually puts the Digital Piano into a standby state. Minute amounts of current continue to flow within the Digital Piano in the standby state. If you do not plan to use the Digital Piano for a long time or if there is a lightning storm in your area, be sure to unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet.

Auto Power Off

The Digital Piano turns off automatically to avoid wasting power if no operation is performed for a preset amount of time. The Auto Power Off trigger time is about six minutes under battery power and about four hours under AC adaptor power.

• You can disable Auto Power Off by turning off the “Auto Power Off” setting as described under “System Settings” (page E-27).

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.

Back

PHONES jacks

Commercially available headphones

Standard plug

Connect commercially available headphones to the PHONES jacks. To protect your hearing, make sure that you do not set the volume level too high when using headphones.

NOTE

• Be sure to push the headphones plug into the

PHONES jacks as far as it will go. If you don’t, you may hear sound from only one side of the headphones.

• If the plug of the headphones you are using does not match the PHONES jacks, use the applicable commercially available adaptor plug.

Connecting a Pedal

Your Digital Piano has two pedal terminals. A variety of different functions can be assigned to a pedal.

• Under initial factory settings, the damper pedal*

function is assigned to DAMPER/PEDAL1.

* Pressing the damper pedal while playing causes

notes you play on the keyboard to be sustained longer. Whenever a piano tone is selected, pressing this pedal will activate the Digital Piano’s Damper Resonance effect, which causes notes to resonate in the same way they do when the damper pedal on an acoustic piano is pressed.

• For details, see the separate “Tutorial”.

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/PEDAL1 jack or PEDAL2 jack. If you want to use both operations (jacks) at the same time, you need to purchase another optionally available pedal.
