PRECAUTIONS

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injur y or even death from electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/AC power adaptor
• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
• Use the specified adaptor (PA-130 or an equivalent recommended by Yamaha) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instrument or overheating.
• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have accumulated on it.
• Do not place the AC adaptor 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.
Do not open
• 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.
Water warning
• 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.
• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
Fire warning
• Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit. A burning item may fall over and cause a fire.
If you notice any abnormality
• If the AC adaptor 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 adaptor plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injur y 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 power adaptor
• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord.

Setting Up

Be sure to do the following operations BEFORE turning on the power.

Power Requirements

Although the instrument will run either from an optional AC adaptor or batteries, Yamaha recommends use of an AC adaptor whenever possible. An AC adaptor is more environmentally friendly than batteries and does not deplete resources.
Using an AC Power Adaptor
q Make sure that the power of the instrument is off
(display is blank, except for notation staff).
WARNING
• Use the specified adaptor (PA-130 or an equivalent recommended by Yamaha) only. The use of other adap­tors may result in irreparable damage to both the adaptor and the instrument.
w Connect the AC power adaptor to the power supply
jack.
e Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.
CAUTION
• Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the instrument, or during electrical storms.
w
e
AC power
adaptor
AC outlet
Using Batteries
q Open the battery compartment cover located on the
instrument’s bottom panel.
w Insert the six new alkaline batteries, being careful
to follow the polarity markings on the side of the compartment.
e Replace the compartment cover, making sure that it
locks firmly in place.
CAUTION
•Never connect or disconnect the AC power adaptor when the power is on and the batteries are installed. Doing so will turn the power off.
For battery operation the instrument requires six
1.5V “AA” size, LR6 or equivalent batteries. (Alka­line batteries are recommended.) When battery power becomes too low for proper operation, the volume may be reduced, the sound may be dis­torted, and other problems may occur. When this happens, make sure to replace all batteries, follow­ing the precautions listed below.
CAUTION
• Use alkaline batteries for this instrument. Other types of batteries (including rechargeable batteries) may have sudden drops of power when battery power becomes low.
• Make sure to install the batteries with the proper orienta­tion, maintaining the correct polarity (as shown). Incor­rect battery installation may result in heat, fire and/or leaking of corrosive chemicals.
• When the batteries run down, replace them with a com­plete set of six new batteries. NEVER mix old and new batteries. Do not use different kinds of batteries (e.g. alkaline and manganese) at the same time.
• If the instrument is not to be in use for a long time, remove the batteries from it, in order to prevent possible fluid leakage from the battery.
8 PSR-E213/YPT-210 Owner’s Manual
Make all necessary connections BEFORE turning the power on.
NOTE

Connecting headphones (PHONES/OUTPUT Jack)

Using the MIDI Terminals

Setting Up
The PSR-E213/YPT-210 speakers are automatically shut off when a plug is inserted into this jack. The PHONES/OUTPUT jack also functions as an external output.
You can connect the PHONES/OUTPUT jack to a keyboard amplifier, stereo system, mixer, tape recorder, or other line-level audio device to send the instrument’s output signal to that device.
WARNING
•Avoid listening with the headphones at high volume for long periods of time; doing so may not only result in ear fatigue, it may be damaging to your hearing.
CAUTION
•To prevent damage to the speakers, set the volume of the external devices at the minimum setting and turn power off the devices before connecting them. Failure to observe these precautions may result in electric shock or equipment damage. Also, be sure to set the volumes of external devices at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.

Connecting a footswitch (SUSTAIN Jack)

other MIDI instrument
The instrument also features MIDI terminals, allow­ing you to interface the instrument with other MIDI instruments or computers. (For more information, see page 50.)
• MIDI cables (sold separately) must be used for connecting to MIDI devices. They can be bought at music stores, etc.

Turn on the power

Press the [STANDBY/ON] switch to turn on the power. Pressing the switch again turns the power off. When you first turn on the power, make sure to turn down the volume of the instrument by pressing the MASTER VOLUME [-] button several times. While playing the keyboard, adjust the volume level by using the MASTER VOLUME [+] and [-] buttons.
The sustain function lets you produce a natural sustain as you play by pressing an optional footswitch. Plug the Yamaha FC4 or FC5 footswitch into this jack and use it to switch sustain on and off.
NOTE
• Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the power.
• Do not press the footswitch while turning the power on. Doing this changes the recognized polarity of the footswitch, result­ing in reversed footswitch operation.
All panel settings as well as the settings made via the display are reset to their default values whenever the power is turned off.
CAUTION
• When using a power adaptor, even when the power is off, a small amount of electricity is still being consumed by the instrument. When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure to unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet, and/or remove the batteries from the instrument.

Setting the Metronome Time Signature
• The time signature cannot be changed for Songs and Styles, because each has a fixed time signature.
A chime will sound on the first beat of each measure, while a metro­nome click will sound on all others. You can also set the time signature to “00,” in which case the chime will not sound and the click sound will be heard on all beats.
