Introduction

Assembly Instructions

In addition to the main piano cabinet, your instrument comes with a stand requiring assembly, using the parts shown
below. Two people may be needed to complete the assembly, as the stand must first rest on the floor and then the
instrument must be securely attached on top of it.

⑧

⑨

⑥

⑦

⑨

Step 1:

Place the stand parts on a carpeted floor or blanket.
Use the four long bolts to attach the pedal unit to the
side panels.
Use the four shorter screws to attach the back panel
to brackets, as shown below.

Step 2:

Move the stand into an upright position and then place

the instrument upon it. To avoid possible damage, don’t

let the weight of the body rest on the stand until it is
properly aligned and secured with the six screws as

shown. Rotate the pedal adjuster until it comes in firm
contact with the floor surface. If the adjuster is not in firm

contact with the floor, the pedal will wobble and cause
malfunctions.

Introduction

Step 3:

Insert the pedal cable connector into the pedal jack

located on the bottom of the keyboard.

Be sure that the connector is inserted in the correct
orientation. Make sure that the cable clamp fastens to
the pedal cable.

Power Connection

A DC power adapter supplies the CUP310’s power. Connect the power adapter to the DC receptacle on the rear panel

of the CUP310. Then connect the power cord to an AC outlet.

CAUTION: Use only the DC power adapter supplied with the CUP310 / 320.
Connecting the wrong DC power adapter could damage the instrument.

If the power adapter is damaged or lost, contact your Kurzweil dealer to order a replacement.

The AC plug shape will vary

depending on location of use

The AC plug shape will vary depending on location of use. After the CUP310 is set up, turn the power on.
While the unit is performing its power-up routine some of the front panel buttons will flash. After a couple of seconds,
the LCD screen will display the first Piano Program. The CUP310 is now ready to play. Use the Quick Start instructions on the
following pages for the basic steps to change Programs or play one of the Demo Songs.

Introduction

MP3 - Aux In

Connects an external audio source to the CUP310
sound system.

Volume

Before turning on the CUP310, it’s always a good idea to

set the volume at its minimum setting (all the way to the
left). For a generally comfortable level of volume while
playing, set the knob at its middle position.
The Volume Control is located on the right end of the
keyboard. Turn this knob from left to right (clock- wise) to

increase the volume. This adjusts the CUP310 speaker

and headphone audio volume. The Volume control does
not affect the volume of the sound coming from external

sources through the Audio In jacks on the rear panel.

Quick Start

Playing the Programs:

1. Turn on the power.

2. The Piano CATEGORY button LED is lit and the first Program (Piano) is ready to play.

3. There are a number of different Programs available. Press a CATEGORY button, then press the LEFT
or RIGHT navigation button to step through the available Programs in the selected category.

Playing a Demo Song:

1. Press the RECORD and PLAY/PAUSE buttons simultaneously to enter Demo Mode

2. The first demo song immediately plays.
When the current demo song finishes, the next song begins playing.

3. Press the LEFT or RIGHT navigation button to select the previous or next song.

4. You can also press PLAY/PAUSE and STOP buttons to start and stop the current demo.

5. To exit Demo Mode, press the EXIT button.

Headphone Jacks

The CUP310 has two 1/4” stereo headphone jacks

located below the keyboard on the left end of the
cabinet.
Plugging in headphones provides privacy during

practice. Each jack operates the same so multiple

people can play and hear the music together. When

headphones are connected the CUP310’s speakers are

silent.
