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.

PRECAUTIONS

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING

* Please keep these precautions in a safe place for future reference.

WARNING

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

•Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or modify them in any way. The instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. If it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

•Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet conditions, or place containers on it containing liquids which might spill into any openings.

•If the power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument, or if any unusual smells or smoke should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the power

switch, disconnect the electric plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

•Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.

•Before cleaning the instrument, always remove the electric plug from the outlet. Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.

•Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have accumulated on it.

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:

•Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy objects on it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything over it.

•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.

•Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-con- nector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the outlet.

•Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.

•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.

•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 or damage to the internal components.

•Do not use the instrument near other electrical products such as televisions, radios, or speakers, since this might cause interference which can affect proper operation of the other products.

•Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over.

•Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables.

•When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths. Also, do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.

•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.

•Take care that the key cover does not pinch your fingers, and do not insert a finger or hand in the key cover gap.

•Never insert or drop paper or metallic or other objects between the slits of the key cover and the keyboard. If this happens, immediately turn off the power and remove the electric plug from the outlet and have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

•Do not place the instrument against a wall (allow at least 3 cm/one-inch from the wall), since this can cause inadequate air circulation, and possibly result in the instrument overheating.

•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 operate the instrument 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.

■USING THE BENCH

•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.

■SAVING USER DATA

•Save all data to an external device such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3, in order to help prevent the loss of important data due to a malfunction or user operating error.

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.

The AUX OUT L/L+R and R jacks deliver the output of the YDP-101 for connection to an instrument amplifier, mixing console, PA system, or recording equipment. If you will be connecting the YDP-101 to a monaural sound system, use only the L/L+R jack. When a plug is inserted into the L/L+R jack only, the leftand right-channel signals are combined and delivered via the L/L+R jack so you don’t lose any of the YDP-101’s sound.

• The AUX OUT jack signal is not controlled by the YDP-101’s volume control.

Use the volume control on the external audio equipment to adjust the level.

According to the voice numbering priority as shown in the diagram on the left, lower valued voice numbers will be designated as the 1st Voice (the other voice will be designated as the 2nd Voice).

The [STRINGS] [VARIATION] voice has a slow attack. This voice can sometimes be used with another voice in the Dual Mode to produce a better “blend”.

NOTE • The [VARIATION] button indicator will light if the variation is engaged for either or both of the dual-mode voices. While the dual mode is engaged the [VARIATION] button can be used to turn the variation for both voices on or off. To use the variation for only one of the voices the setting must be made prior to engaging the dual mode.

•[REVERB] in the Dual Mode

The reverb type assigned to the 1st Voice will take priority over the other.

(If the reverb is set to OFF, the 2nd Voice’s reverb type will be in affect.) Reverb depth setting via the panel controls (i.e. pressing the [-/NO] or [+/

YES] buttons while holding the [REVERB] button — see page 16) will be applied to the 1st Voice only.
