-Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are not designed to be charged.
-Keep the batteries separate from metallic objects such as necklaces, hairpins, coins, and keys.
-Use the specified battery type (page 77) only.
-Use new batteries, all of which are the same type, same model, and made by the same manufacturer.
-Always make sure all batteries are inserted in conformity with the +/- polarity markings.
-When the batteries run out, or if the instrument is not to be used for a long time, remove the batteries from the instrument.
-When using Ni-MH batteries, follow the instructions that came with the batteries. Use only the specified charger device when charging.
•Keep batteries away from small children who might accidentally swallow them.
•If the batteries do leak, avoid contact with the leaked fluid. If the battery fluid should come in contact with your eyes, mouth, or skin, wash immediately with water and consult a doctor. Battery fluid is corrosive and may possibly cause loss of sight or chemical burns.
If you notice any abnormality

CAUTION
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:
Power supply/AC adaptor
•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.
•Use only the stand specified for the instrument. When attaching it, use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause damage to the internal components or result in the instrument falling over.
Connections
•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.
Location
•Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over.
•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.
Handling caution
•Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument.
•Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the 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.

For Types 01– 05, turn the Auto Accompaniment on and play it by pressing a chord in the auto accompaniment section of the keyboard, then play some keys in the right-hand side to produce the Harmony effect. For Types 06–26, turning auto accompaniment on or off has no effect. However, it is necessary to play two notes simultaneously for Types 06–12.
• Harmony Type 001 to 005
Press the right-hand keys while playing chords in the auto accompaniment range of the keyboard when Auto Accompaniment is on (page 22).
• Harmony Type 006 to 012 (Trill)
Hold down two keys.
• Harmony Type 013 to 019 (Tremolo)
Keep holding down the keys.
• Harmony Type 020 to 026 (Echo)
Play the keys.
• Arpeggio Type 027 to 176
When Split is off:
Arpeggio function applies to the Main Voice and the Dual Voice.
When Split is on:
Arpeggio function applies only to the split
Voice.
NOTE
•Arpeggio cannot be applied to the Split and Main/ Dual Voices simultaneously.
•Selecting a Voice number between 226 and 235 as the Main Voice will turn on Arpeggio and Split automatically.
To adjust the Harmony Volume:
This can be adjusted via Function number 029 (page 46).
To adjust the Arpeggio Velocity:
This can be adjusted via Function number 030 (page 46).
Holding the Arpeggio Playback via the Footswitch (Hold)

When the Duo mode is activated on this instrument, two different players can play the instrument simultaneously, with the same sound, over the same octave range—one person on the left and the other on the right. This is useful for learning applications, in which one person (a teacher, for example) plays a model performance and the other person watches and practices while sitting at the first person’s side.
1To start this instrument in the Duo mode, simultaneously hold down the [L] button and press the [ ] (Standby/On) switch to turn on the power.
“DuoMode” is shown in the display for a few seconds, and the F#3 key becomes the Split Point and the keyboard is divided into two sections: one for the left Voice and one for the right Voice.

Left Voice Right Voice
NOTE
•The right Voice section and the left Voice section of the keyboard are both set to the same Voice (Main Voice).
•In the Duo mode, the Split Point cannot be changed from F# 3.
2One person should play the left Voice section of the keyboard while the other
plays the right Voice section.
Selecting a Voice
Select a Voice by executing Steps 1 and 2 in “Selecting a Main Voice” on page 16.
NOTE
•When a Dual Voice is selected from Voice numbers 162 to 188, the left Voice section sounds only the Main Voice.
•Certain functions such as Lesson, Harmony/Arpeggio and Dual cannot be used in the Duo mode.
How sounds are output in the Duo mode
Notes played in the left Voice section sound from the left side speaker while notes played in the right Voice section sound from the right side speaker, in the initial Duo mode setting. This output setting can be changed from the “VoiceOut” setting (Function 027; page 46).
NOTE
•In the Duo mode, the pan, volume and tonal characteristics of the stereo sound may differ from those in the normal mode, due to the setting of VoiceOut = “Separate” (page 46). Particularly with Drum Kits, the difference may be more obvious, since each key of a Drum Kit features a different stereo pan position.
Using sustain in the Duo mode
Sustain can be applied to the left and right Voice sections in Duo mode just as it normally is by using one of the following methods in the Duo mode like the usual mode.
•Press the foot switch (page 14) connected to the [SUSTAIN] jack.
•Set “Sustain” (Function 024; page 46) to on. Sustain is applied to all notes.
NOTE
•Sustain cannot be applied independently to the left Voice section and the right Voice section.
•While Panel Sustain is on, the setting of hold is maintained even when the power is turned off.
Style Playback in the Duo mode
Although full Style features (accompaniment) cannot be used in the Duo mode, the rhythm part of a Style can be played back while playing the left/right Voices normally.
Recording in the Duo mode
The right Voice section and the left Voice section are recorded on the same track.
3To exit from the Duo mode, press the
[] (Standby/On) switch to turn off the power, and turn the power back on again
normally.
