IMPORTANT
Check your power supply
Make sure that your local AC mains voltage matches the voltage specified on
the name plate on the bottom panel. In some areas a voltage selector may be
provided on the bottom panel of the main keyboard unit near the power cord.
Make sure that the voltage selector is set for the voltage in your area. The
voltage selector is set at 240V when the unit is initially shipped. To change the
setting use a "minus" screwdriver to rotate the selector dial so that the correct
voltage appears next to the pointer on the panel.

WICHTIG
Überprüfung der Stromversorgung
Vergewissern Sie sich vor dem Anschließen an das Stromnetz, daß die örtliche
Netzspannung den Betriebsspannungswerten auf dem Typenschild an der
Unterseite des Instruments entspricht. In bestimmten Verkaufsgebieten ist das
Instrument mit einem Spannungswähler an der Unterseite neben der
Netzkabeldurchführung ausgestattet. Falls vorhanden, muß der
Spannungswähler auf die örtliche Netzspannung eingestellt werden. Der
Spannungswähler wurde werkseitig auf 240 V voreingestellt. Zum Verstellen
drehen Sie den Spannungsregler mit einem Schlitzschraubendreher, bis der
Zeiger auf den korrekten Spannungswert weist.
IMPORTANT
Contrôler la source d'alimentation
Vérifiez que la tension spécifiée sur le panneau inférieur correspond à la
tension du secteur. Dans certaines régions, l'instrument peut être équipé d'un
sélecteur de tension situé sur le panneau inférieur du clavier à proximité du
cordon d'alimentation.
Vérifiez que ce sélecteur est bien réglé en fonction de la tension secteur de
votre région. Le sélecteur de tension est réglé sur 240 V au départ d'usine.
Pour modifier ce réglage, utilisez un tournevis à lame plate pour tourner le
sélecteur afin de mettre l'indication correspondant à la tension de votre région
vis à vis du repère triangulaire situé sur le panneau.
IMPORTANTE
Verifique la alimentación de corriente
Asegúrese de que tensión de alimentación de CA de su área corresponde con la
tensión especificada en la placa de características del panel inferior. En algunas
zonas puede haberse incorporado un selector de tensión en el panel inferior
de la unidad del teclado principal, cerca del cable de alimentación. Asegúrese
de que el selector de tensión esté ajustado a la tensión de su área. El selector
de tensión se ajusta a 240V cuando la unidad sale de fábrica. Para cambiar el
ajuste, emplee un destornillador de cabeza "recta" para girar el selector de
modo que aparezca la tensión correcta al lado del indicador del panel.

Features
The Yamaha Clavinova CLP-220 digital piano offers unmatched sonic realism and natural grand-piano type playability as
well as Yamaha’s original “AWM Stereo Sampling” tone-generation technology for rich, musical voices, and a special
“Graded Hammer” keyboard that provides graded key weight and response throughout the keyboard range.
Tw o of the piano voices, “Grand Piano 1” and “Grand Piano 2,” feature totally new samples recorded from a full-size concert grand piano. The “Electric Piano 1” voice features multiple samples for different velocities (Dynamic Sampling); that
is, different samples are used depending on how fast or strong you strike the keys.
The CLP-220 sounds much closer to a true acoustic piano.
