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 injury or even death from electrical shock, shortcircuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/AC power adaptor |
Battery |
•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.
•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 (page 68) 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 open
•This instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble or modify the internal components in any way. 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. If any liquid such as water seeps into the instrument, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
•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.
•Always replace all batteries at the same time. Do not use new batteries together with old ones.
•Do not mix battery types, such as alkaline batteries with manganese batteries, or batteries from different makers, or different types of batteries from the same maker, since this can cause overheating, fire, or battery fluid leakage.
•Do not tamper with or disassemble batteries.
•Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
•Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are not intended to be charged.
•Keep batteries away from children.

PSR-E333/YPT-330 Owner’s Manual 7
Be sure to do the following operations BEFORE turning on the power.
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
1Make sure that the [] (Standby/On) switch of the instrument is off (the backlit display is off).
WARNING
•Use the specified adaptor (page 68). The use of other adaptors may result in irreparable damage to both the adaptor and the instrument.
2Connect the AC power adaptor to the power supply jack.
3Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.
CAUTION
•Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the instrument, or during electrical storms.

Using Batteries
1Open the battery compartment cover located on the instrument’s bottom panel.
2Insert the six new alkaline batteries, being careful to follow the polarity markings on the side of the compartment.
3Replace the compartment cover, making sure that it locks firmly in place.
NOTICE
•Never connect or disconnect the AC power adaptor when the batteries are installed in the instrument and the power is on. Doing so will turn the power off, possibly resulting in loss of the data being transferred as well as the data currently in the transfer destination during transferring or recording of data.
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.
If necessary, also make sure to save all important User data (see page 45), since custom panel settings are lost when the batteries are removed.
WARNING
•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.
NOTICE
•Use alkaline batteries for this instrument. Other types of batteries (including rechargeable batteries) may have sudden drops of power when battery power becomes low, possibly resulting in loss of data in the flash memory.
•Please use the power adaptor when transferring data to flash memory. Batteries (including rechargeable types) can be drained rapidly by this type of operation. If the batteries do become drained during a data transfer, both the data being transferred and the data currently in the transfer destination will be lost.
8 PSR-E333/YPT-330 Owner’s Manual
Setting Up
Make all necessary connections BEFORE turning the power on.
You can connect the PHONES/OUTPUT jack to a set of headphones, keyboard amplifier, stereo system, mixer, tape recorder, or other line-level audio device to send the instrument’s output signal to that device.
The internal speakers are automatically shut off when a plug is inserted into this jack. The PHONES/OUTPUT jack also functions as an external output.
NOTE
•You can set the Master equalizer (EQ) which is provided to give you the best possible sound when listening through different reproduction systems. The Master equalizer (EQ) can be set in the Function settings (page 42 Function 023).
CAUTION
•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 all devices at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.
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 the SUSTAIN 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.
Turn down the volume by turning the [MASTER VOLUME] control to the left and press the [] (Standby/On) switch to turn on the power. While playing the keyboard, adjust the volume level by using the [MASTER VOLUME] control. Pressing the [ ] (Standby/On) switch again turns the power 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.
To prevent unnecessary power consumption, this instrument features an Auto Power Off function that automatically turns the power off if the instrument is not operated for a specified period of time. The amount of time that will elapse before the power is automatically turned off can be set in the Function (page 43 Function 040).
Setting range: 5/10/15/30/60/120/OFF (minutes) Default setting: 30 (minutes)
To disable the Auto Power Off function
While holding down the lowest key, press the [] (Standby/On) switch to turn on the power. Alternately select “Off” in the Function settings.
NOTE
•The data and settings are always backed up, and are maintained even when the power is turned off. For information on the backup parameters, see page 40.
Remove the transparent protective film that was applied to the display prior to shipment from the factory.

Play with a Style
The instrument features a wide variety of Style “Sections” (patterns) that allow you to vary the arrangement of the accompaniment to match the Song you are playing.
Adding an Intro
Pressing the [INTRO/ENDING/rit.] button before playing back the Style automatically adds a short introduction before starting the actual (Main) rhythm.
When the intro finishes playing, Style playback shifts to the Main Section.
Adding an Ending
Press the [INTRO/ENDING/rit.] button to begin playing an ending Section. Playback will stop when the ending has played all the way through.
If you press the [INTRO/ENDING/rit.] button a second time (while the ending is playing) the ending will play ritardando (the tempo will gradually get slower).
Switching Main Sections
There are two variations on the basic Section (A and B).
This switches between the Main A and Main B Sections, automatically playing a fill-in pattern to smoothly lead into the next Section.
You can also select either the Main A or B Section to start by pressing the [MAIN/AUTO FILL] button before starting the Style.
Adding a Fill-in
A Fill-in pattern is automatically added before changing to Section A or B.
