IMPORTANT NOTES
In addition to the items listed under “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” and “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on pages 2
and 3, please read and observe the following:
Power Supply
• Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is
being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by
an inverter (such as a refrigerator, washing machine,
microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a
motor. Depending on the way in which the electrical
appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit
to malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it is not
practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect a
power supply noise filter between this unit and the
electrical outlet.
• Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the
power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions
and/or damage to speakers or other devices.
• Although the LCD and LEDs are switched off when the
POWER switch is switched off, this does not mean that the
unit has been completely disconnected from the source of
power. If you need to turn off the power completely, first
turn off the POWER switch, then unplug the power cord
from the power outlet. For this reason, the outlet into
which you choose to connect the power cord’s plug
should be one that is within easy reach and readily accessible.
Placement
• Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment
containing large power transformers) may induce hum.
To alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this
unit; or move it farther away from the source of interference.
• This device may interfere with radio and television
reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such
receivers.
• Noise may be produced if wireless communications
devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of
this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing. Should you experience
such problems, you should relocate such wireless devices
so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch
them off.
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near
devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed
vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes.
Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near
devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed
vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes.
Also, do not allow lighting devices that normally are used
while their light source is very close to the unit (such as a
piano light), or powerful spotlights to shine upon the
same area of the unit for extended periods of time.
Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.
• When moved from one location to another where the
temperature and/or humidity is very different, water
droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage
or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in
this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must
allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation
has completely evaporated.
• Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain
on the unit for long periods of time. Such objects can
discolor or otherwise harmfully affect the finish.
• Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument.
Peeling such matter off the instrument may damage the
exterior finish.
• Depending on the material and temperature of the surface
on which you place the unit, its rubber feet may discolor
or mar the surface.
You can place a piece of felt or cloth under the rubber feet
to prevent this from happening. If you do so, please make
sure that the unit will not slip or move accidentally.
• During operation, this device must be placed at a distance
of no less than 20 cm from any walls.

IMPORTANT NOTES
Maintenance
• To clean the unit, use a dry, soft cloth; or one that is
slightly dampened. Try to wipe the entire surface using an
equal amount of strength, moving the cloth along with the
grain of the wood. Rubbing too hard in the same area can
damage the finish.
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any
kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or
deformation.
Additional Precautions
• Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s
buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks
and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.
• When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the
connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way you
will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable’s
internal elements.
• A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit during
normal operation.
• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit’s
volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use
headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about
those around you (especially when it is late at night).
• When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box
(including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise,
you will need to use equivalent packaging materials.
• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use
cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this unit.
The use of such cables can cause the sound level to be
extremely low, or impossible to hear. For information on
cable specifications, contact the manufacturer of the cable.
• Wrap the power cord around the cord hook when transporting or storing the unit.

Main Features
The SA-1000 is a combo amp that also functions as a 2.1-channel full stereo, lightweight, high-power stage amp.
Easy setup
Mixer, amp, and speakers are integrated in one unit, eliminating any need for complicated wiring. You can also connect a
subwoofer unit with a single cable.
Fully reproduces the powerful, low-frequency sounds of an organ
Designed for high power, the SA-1000 outputs 350 watts (stereo: 75 W + 75 W, subwoofer: 200 W). This amp faithfully
reproduces piano, organ, and other keyboard sounds. The SA-1000 also comes equipped with an "Organ Enhance" function.
Convert to a simple PA system with the Stereo Link function
The unit features a Stereo Link function, which allows you to connect two SA-1000s and use each as an independent left or
right stereo speaker. You can also use the SA-1000 as a PA system for small-scale concerts.
A full complement of input connections
In addition to two keyboard input systems, the unit also includes mic and line level device input connectors. For an artist
who talks or sings during their piano or organ performance, an SA-1000 is all they need.

4. ANTI-FEEDBACK
This automatically detects and eliminates acoustic
feedback.
For further instructions on how to use anti-feedback,
refer to “About the Anti-Feedback Function” (p. 15)
ON/OFF Button
Press this button to turn the function on.
When switched on, the indicator lights, and the system
automatically works to prevent sudden feedback, as well
as feedback that occurs during quiet stretches.
AUTO Button
When the ON/OFF button is set to ON, holding down
this button for one second or longer generates a
calibration signal from the speakers. The microphone
picks up the sound and the SA-1000 analyzes the
characteristics of the microphone and the surroundings.
Based on the results of this analysis, the microphone and
environmental characteristics are compensated for
automatically, making it difficult for feedback to crop
up.
The indicator flashes while this automatic correction is in
progress. When the process is completed, the indicator
remains lit, signifying that the feedback prevention
function is in effect.
