STATEMENTS REGARDING THE WIRELESS LAN CARD
RADIATION EXPOSURE STATEMENT
The available scientific evidence does not show that any health problems are associated with using low power wireless devices. There is no proof, however, that these low power wireless devices are absolutely safe. Low power Wireless devices emit low levels of radio frequency energy (RF) in the microwave range while being used. Whereas high levels of RF can produce health effects (by heating tissue), exposure to low level RF that does not produce heating effects causes no known adverse health effects. Many studies of low level RF exposures have not found any biological effects. Some studies have suggested that some biological effects might occur, but such findings have not been confirmed by additional research. The WD05740 has been tested and found to comply with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines on radio frequency energy (RF) exposures. The maximum SAR levels tested for the WD05740 has been shown to be 0.563W/kg at body. This device should not be co-located or operated with any other antenna or transmitter. In addition, use of the equipment other than PDA may not ensure compliance with FCC RF exposure guidlines.
FCC AND INDUSTRY CANADA INFORMATION (U.S.A , CANADA)
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions : (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
FCC WARNING: Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. Properly shielded an grounded cables and connectors must be used for connection to host computer and/or peripherals in order to meet FCC emission limits.
L’utilisation de ce dispositif est autorisee seulement aux conditions suivantes : (1) il ne doit pas produire de brouillage et (2) l’utilisateur du dispositif doit etre pret a accepter tout brouillage radioelectrique recu, meme si ce brouillage est susceptible de compromettre le fonctionnement du dispositif.

Important Precautions

Read the following before operating the Disklavier.
Warning
• Do not locate the Disklavier 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 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, 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 in this condition is a fire and shock hazard.
• When disconnecting the power cable from an AC outlet, always pull by 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.
• Do not try to modify the Disklavier, as this could lead to fire or electric shock hazard.
• When moving the Disklavier 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. 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 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 is worked extremely hard — that is, prolonged playback of very “busy” songs — the Disklavier’s thermal relay may trip. The thermal relay will automatically reset when the Disklavier has cooled down.
• If you notice any abnormality — such as smoke, odor, or noise — turn off the Disklavier immediately, and remove the power plug from the AC outlet. Consult your dealer for repair.
ii
Page 13
• If a foreign object or water gets inside the Disklavier turn it off immediately, and remove the power plug from the AC outlet. Consult your dealer.
• If you plan not to use the Disklavier for a long period of time (such as when you are on vacation), disconnect the electrical mains.
• Always remove the power plug from the AC outlet before cleaning the Disklavier. 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.
• Do not place metal objects with rubber feet on top of the Disklavier. The color and finish of the Disklavier can be damaged.
• Do not place heavy objects on the Disklavier. Doing so can damage the Disklavier.
• Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the Disklavier. However, if you discover a stain, carefully use a soft damp cloth to remove it.
• Never attempt to disassemble the battery pack.
• Do not short-circuit the terminals as they will become very hot and will damage the battery.
• Do not drop or subject the battery to shock.
• After storing the battery for a long period of time, be sure to charge the battery completely prior to use.
• Charge the battery properly, according to the details described in this manual.
• Fluid from a leaking battery accidentally entering an eye could result in serious injury. Should this occur, wash with clean water and immediately consult a doctor.
• Should fluid from a leaking battery come into contact with your skin or clothes, immediately wash with clean water.
Notes on Disklavier’s Hard Disk Drive (HDD)
English
Interference
• The Disklavier uses high-frequency digital circuits that may cause interference to radios and TVs placed close to it. If interference does occur, relocate the affected equipment.
Handling Rechargeable Battery
• Only use the “EA-BL08” rechargeable battery.
• When charging, be sure to use the Pocket Controller only with the “EA-70” AC adaptor.
• Do not dispose of the battery in a fire.
• Also keep the battery away from open flames.
Making Backups on a Regular Basis
Even with normal use, HDD may deteriorate over time. We therefore strongly recommend that you make backups of the song data on the HDD on a regular basis. Failure to do so may result in unrestorable loss of any saved data.
Exclusion of Liability for Loss of Data
Yamaha assumes no liability for the loss of any profits incurred as a result of the loss or corruption of any saved data on the HDD, for any loss or damage caused by or arising out of extraordinary circumstances (including circumstances that Yamaha has foreseen or could foresee), nor for any damages incurred or claimed by a third party.
Please keep this manual for future
reference.

Basic Precautions for Using Floppy Disks and CDs

Handling Floppy Disks
In order to protect data stored on floppy disks from damage or loss, be sure to handle them with care, and observe the following precautions.
• Do not touch the surface of the internal disk.
• Do not store or place disks near a television, radio, loudspeaker, or any other device that generates a magnetic field.
• Do not expose disks to extreme temperature or humidity. The working temperature range for disks is between 4°C and 52°C (40°F and 125°F).
• Do not use disks in a dusty, dirty, or smoky environment.
• Remove the disk from the floppy disk drive before turning the Disklavier off.

Notes on the limitation of the compatible file format
SMF format 0: For playback and recording.
SMF format 1: For playback only.
E-SEQ: For playback and overwrite recording.
• The name of the SMF file should have an extension as “.MID” or “.mid”.
• The name of the E-SEQ file should have an extension as “.FIL” or “.fil”.
Notes on the files created on the Disklavier PRO Series
The song file created on the Disklavier PRO Series contains various data that enable high-accuracy in song playback. However, those data can not produce any expected results and, moreover, may control the keys unnaturally when the song file is modified on the external MIDI device such as sequencer, etc. The above mentioned problem does not occur in the following cases:
• When the song file stored/loaded in the Disklavier PRO Series is played back on the Disklavier PRO Series through an external MIDI device without any modification on that device.
• When the song file is output from the [MIDI OUT] terminal or the [USB ] port on the front of the I/O Center and played back on another MIDI device. Any modifications are available.
• When the following event is deleted from the song file.

Piano Playing Features

Playing the Disklavier along with the Internal Metronome

The beats of the metronome help you play the Disklavier with a steady tempo. The tempo, the meter (beat), and the volume of the click can be adjusted.
Note: The [Tempo] value indicates the number of
beats in a minute, and one beat represents a quarter note. When you play a song written in different measure unit, convert the unit to quarter note (e.g. When playing a song in 3/2, set [Beat] to 6/4).
Tap on in the [Main] screen.

Playing the Disklavier Accompanied by the Additional Voice(s) (Performance Mode)

This function lets you play the piano sound of the Disklavier accompanied by other voices produced by the internal tone generator. A maximum of two voices sound in unison with the right-hand part that you play and one voice does with the left-hand part. You can also mute the piano sound to your preference.

Adding Expressive Effect to Your Play

In Quiet or Headphone mode, when a voice contained in [AEM Brass], [AEM Sax], or [AEM Section] Instrument Group is selected, depressing the pedal adds articulations specific to the wood/brass wind. Three types of articulation are assigned to the respective pedals.
Soft pedal:
Assigned for adding Head (blow-up) articulation to the manner of beginning a note.
Sostenuto pedal:
Assigned for adding Joint articulation to the interval of two notes.
Damper pedal:
Assigned for adding Tail (fall-down) articulation to the manner of ending a note.

For Joint articulation
1 Press the desired key to be jointed with the next
key.
2 Depress and hold the sostenuto pedal, and then
press another key in a certain interval. The first note leads to the second one by added glissando between them.
Tip: This articulation is the most effective
when the interval of the two notes is an octave.
Note: When the interval of the jointed notes
is narrower or wider than an octave, Joint articulation may not effect those notes.
For Tail (fall-down) articulation
1 Press the desired key. 2 While the key is pressed, depress the damper
pedal, and then release the key.
3 Release the damper pedal to mute the note.
The note sustains for a while with its pitch falling down to the lower octave’s note before muting the note completely.
Tip: When you immediately release the
damper pedal, short Tail articulation effects on that note. When you slowly release the damper pedal, long Tail articulation effects on that note.
Note: The Disklavier stops sustaining the
note, and then adds Tail articulation at the release of the damper pedal (not at the release of the key).

Adding Chords to a Melody Line (Harmony Mode)

In Quiet or Headphone mode, the Disklavier can add a chord suitable for the melody line played on the keys higher than the split point in accordance with the notes played (but without sound) on the keys* lower than the split point.
* The Disklavier creates a chord based on the notes of up
to three keys.
Note: In this mode, the keys lower than the split
point are muted.
Setting up Harmony Mode
You can select the desired split point and the balance between the chord’s volume and the melody line’s volume.
