Important

Read the following before operating the Disklavier GranTouch.
Warnings
Do not locate the Disklavier GranTouch in a place subject to excessive heat, low temperatures, or direct sunlight. This could be a fire hazard and may damage the finish and internal parts.
Excessive humidity or dust can lead to fire or electric shock.
Connect the plug on the Disklavier GranTouch power cable to a compatible AC outlet. Failure to do so will present a fire and electric shock hazard. If the power cable plug is not compatible with your AC outlet, consult your dealer.
Do not plug several devices into the same AC outlet. This can overload the AC outlet, and lead to fire and electric shock hazard. It may also affect the performance of some devices.
•Do not place heavy objects on the power cable. A damaged power cable is a potential fire and electric shock hazard. If the power cable runs under a carpet, make sure heavy objects, including the Disklavier GranTouch, are not placed on top of the cable.
If the power cable is damaged (i.e. cut or a bare wire is exposed), ask your dealer for a replacement. Using the Disklavier GranTouch in this condition is a fire and shock hazard.
•When disconnecting the power cable from an AC outlet, always pull from the plug. Never pull the cable. Damaging the cable in this way is a potential fire and electric shock hazard.
The cover of the unit should be removed only by qualified service technicians.
Do not place liquid containers such as vases, potted plants, glasses, cosmetic bottles, medicines, etc., on top of the Disklavier GranTouch.
Do not block the ventilation holes in the Disklavier GranTouch. The Disklavier GranTouch has ventilation holes underneath to
prevent the internal temperature from rising. Blocking ventilation holes are a fire hazard.
Do not try to modify the Disklavier GranTouch, as this could lead to fire or electric shock hazard.
•When moving the Disklavier GranTouch to another location, turn off the power, remove the power plug from the AC outlet, and remove all cables connected to external devices.
Cautions
•Turn off all audio devices when connecting to the Disklavier GranTouch. Refer to the user’s guide for each device. Use the correct cables and connect as specified.
Set the volume level on all the devices to minimum before applying power.
Do not play the Disklavier GranTouch at a high volume for extended periods; you may damage your hearing. This is especially important when using headphones. If you think your hearing ability is impaired, consult your doctor.
If the Disklavier GranTouch is worked extremely hard — that is, prolonged playback of very “busy” songs — the Disklavier GranTouch’s thermal relay may trip. The thermal relay will automatically reset when the Disklavier GranTouch has cooled down.
If you notice any abnormality — such as smoke, odor, or noise — turn off the Disklavier GranTouch immediately, and remove the power plug from the AC outlet. Consult your dealer for repair.
If a foreign object or water gets inside the Disklavier GranTouch turn it off immediately, and remove the power plug from the AC outlet. Consult your dealer.
• If you plan not to use the Disklavier GranTouch for a long period of time (such as when you are on vacation), disconnect the electrical mains.
English
i
•Always remove the power plug from the AC outlet before cleaning the Disklavier GranTouch. Leaving the power plug connected presents a risk of electric shock.
Do not use benzene, thinner, cleaning detergent, or a chemical cloth to clean the Disklavier GranTouch.
Do not place metal objects with rubber feet on top of the Disklavier GranTouch. The color and finish of the piano can be damaged.
Do not place heavy objects on the Disklavier GranTouch. Doing so can damage the piano.
Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the Disklavier GranTouch. However, if you discover a stain, carefully use a soft damp cloth to remove it.
Interference
•The Disklavier GranTouch uses high­frequency digital circuits that may cause interference to radios and TVs placed close to it. If interference does occur, relocate the affected equipment.
Handling Batteries
The remote control of this unit is powered by dry batteries. Improper use or misuse of the dry batteries can cause the dry batteries to heat up, leak electrolyte or burst which in turn may result in a fire, damage to equipment and/or nearby objects or in burns, injury or other bodily harm. Read through and familiarize yourself with the following safety precautions prior to use to ensure correct usage.
Do not directly touch the chemicals (electrolyte) which have leaked from dry batteries.
1. If electrolyte from dry batteries has made
contact with your eyes, rinse your eyes thoroughly with clean water and seek medical treatment from a physician immediately.
2. If electrolyte from dry batteries has touched your skin or clothing, rinse it off immediately with clean water.
3. If electrolyte from dry batteries has found its way inside your mouth, gargle immediately and consult a physician.
•Do not install the dry batteries with the “+” and “–” poles reversed. Misaligning the poles of dry batteries can lead the dry batteries to be charged or shorted or it can cause them to heat up, leak electrolyte or burst which in turn may result in a fire, damage to nearby objects or in burns, injury or other bodily harm.
•Use only the designated batteries. Do not use used batteries with unused batteries or different types of batteries together. This can cause them to heat up, leak electrolyte or burst which in turn may result in a fire or in burns, injury or other bodily harm. Replace all the dry batteries at the same time. Do not use new and old dry batteries together. Do not use different types of batteries (alkaline and manganese batteries, batteries made by different manufacturers or different battery products made by the same manufacturer) together: this can cause them to heat up, ingite or leak electrolyte.
When the battery-powered unit is not going to be used for a prolonged period of time, remove the dry batteries from the unit. Otherwise the batteries will run down and their electrolyte may leak, resulting in damage to the unit.
Remove spent batteries immediately from equipment. Otherwise, batteries will overdischarge, causing them to heat up, leak electrolyte or burst which in turn may result in damage to nearby objects or in burns, injury or other bodily harm.
•Dispose of batteries in accordance with the applicable regulations and ordinances.
Please keep this manual for future reference.

Disk
“Disk” is used as a generic term to refer to floppy disks, internal Memory Disks, and CDs.
