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.
Before using the instrument, be sure to read “PRECAUTIONS” on pages 6-7.
For information on assembling the instrument, refer to the instructions at the end of this manual.

Using the bench (If included)
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage
to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector.
Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the
outlet.
• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold
the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.
• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used for
extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.
• Read carefully the attached documentation explaining the assembly process.
Failure to assemble the instrument in the proper sequence might result in
damage to the instrument or even injury.
• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally
fall over.
• When transporting or moving the instrument, always use two or more people.
Attempting to lift the instrument by yourself may damage your back, result in
other injury, or cause damage to the instrument itself.
• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to prevent damage
to the cables or injury to anyone who might trip over them.
• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily
accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power
switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is
turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When
you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power
cord from the wall AC outlet.
• Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the key cover or instrument. Also
take care that the key cover does not pinch your finger.
• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the key
cover, panel or keyboard. This could cause physical injury to you or others,
damage to the instrument or other property, or operational failure.
• Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do not
use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
• Do not use the instrument/device or headphones for a long period of time at a
high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing
loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a
physician.
• Do not place the bench in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall
over.
• Do not play carelessly with or stand on the bench. Using it as a tool or stepladder
or for any other purpose might result in accident or injury.
• Only one person should sit on the bench at a time, in order to prevent the
possibility of accident or injury.
• If the bench screws become loose due to extensive long-term use, tighten them
periodically using the included tool.
• Keep special watch over any small children so that they don’t fall off the rear of
the bench. Since the bench does not have a backrest, unsupervised use may
result in accident or injury.
• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the
power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all components,
set all volume levels to minimum.
• Be sure to set the volumes of all components at their minimum levels and
gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the
desired listening level.
Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.
Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.
Even when the [ ] (Standby/On) switch is in standby status (power lamp is off), electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level.
When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

Notices and Information
NOTICE
To avoid the possibility of malfunction/ damage to the product, damage to data, or damage to other property, follow the
notices below.
Handling
• Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the
instrument, TV, or radio may generate noise. When you use the instrument along with the application on your iPhone/iPad, we
recommend that you set “Airplane Mode” to “ON” on your iPhone/iPad in order to avoid noise caused by communication.
• Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in
a car during the day) to prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration, damage to the internal components or unstable operation.
(Verified operating temperature range: 5° – 40°C, or 41° – 104°F.)
• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.
• In the case of a model with a polished finish, bumping the surface of the instrument with metal, porcelain, or other hard objects can
cause the finish to crack or peel. Use caution.
Instrument / Bench Maintenance
To keep your Clavinova in optimum condition, we recommend that you periodically follow the maintenance points
below.
• When cleaning the instrument or bench, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids,
or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths. Otherwise, it may become discolored or degraded.
• If you are using a model with a polished finish, gently remove dust and dirt with a soft cloth. Do not wipe too hard since small
particles of dirt can scratch the instrument's finish. To keep the surface polished, apply commercially available piano polisher to a
soft cloth and wipe the instrument’s surface with it. Then, polish it with a separate cloth. Before using any piano polisher, make sure
to read the instructions for proper usage.
• During extreme changes in temperature or humidity, condensation may occur and water may collect on the surface of the
instrument. If water is left, the wooden parts may absorb the water and be damaged. Make sure to wipe any water off immediately
with a soft cloth.
• As with an acoustic piano, pedals may become tarnished across the ages. When this occurs, polish the pedal with a compound
designed for piano pedals. Before using the compound, make sure to read the instructions for proper usage.
Saving data
• The edited Songs/Styles/Voices and MIDI settings are lost when you turn off the power of the instrument without saving. It occurs
also when the power is turned of by Auto Power Off function (page 15). Save the edited data to the instrument (User memory) or
USB flash memory (page 29). Saving the data to USB flash memory is even more secure, since the data in the instrument may be
lost due to malfunction or incorrect operation.
• To further protect against data loss through the USB flash memory damage, we recommend that you save your important data onto
two USB flash memories.

performance possibilities. Let’s take a look…
True Acoustic Piano Feel
We’ve combined some sophisticated technologies — including the
Real Grand Expression (RGE) Sound Engine and Natural Wood
(NW) keyboard (on the CVP-609), or the Graded Hammer 3 (GH3)
keyboard (on the CVP-605) — to reproduce the natural touch
response and expressive nuances of an actual concert grand piano.
In addition, there is a special “Piano Room” containing all relevant
piano performance settings, which you can call up with a single
button press any time you want. This complete piano ‘environment’
lets you select the desired piano type as well as different room
ambiences — providing a total piano experience, as if you were
playing an actual piano.
Page 40
Enormous Variety of Instrument Voices
Naturally, the CVP provides many realistic piano Voices for your
playing enjoyment. But it also features a wide variety of authentic
instruments, both acoustic and electronic. Moreover, the special
Super Articulation Voices realistically recreate many of the
performance techniques and characteristic sounds generated when
an artist plays an instrument. The result is superbly detailed
expression — such as the realistic sound of finger slides on guitar,
and the expressive breath noises of saxophone and other wind
instruments.
Page 42
Full Backing Band Accompaniment
Even if you’re playing alone, the CVP can put an entire backing band
behind you! Simply playing chords w ith your left hand automatically
triggers and controls the auto accompaniment backing (Style
function). You can change arrangements on the fly, instantly
selecting different rhythm variations and breaks in real time —
including Intro, Ending, and Fill-in — during your performance.
And if you find it hard to select just the right Style from the huge
variety available, use the Style Recommender function, which calls
up a list of suggested Styles, based on a sample rhythm you play.

Sing Along with Song Playback or Your Own Performance
Since a microphone can be connected to the Clavinova and Song
lyrics can be shown on the display, you can enjoy singing along
with your keyboard performance or along with Song playback.
You can also cancel the vocal part on audio recordings, letting you
sing along with (or instead of!) your favorite artists and groups,
and enjoy performing even more.
