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.
Vergewissern Sie sich vor dem An­schließen an das Stromnetz, daß die örtliche Netzspannung den Betr iebs­spannungswerten auf dem T ypenschild 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
WICHTIG

IMPORTANT
Vérifiez 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
Compruebe la alimentación de su área
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.

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
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:
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.
• 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-con­nector. 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.
• On the CVP-600, gently remove dust and dirt with a soft cloth. Do not wipe too hard since small particles of dirt can scratch the instrument’s finish.
• On the CVP-600, bumping the surface of the instrument with metal, porce­lain, or other hard objects can cause the finish to crack or peel. Use caution.
• 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 (if included)
• 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
• Always save data to a floppy disk frequently, 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.

Precautions Regarding Floppy Disk
.............................................................................................
Use
Never open the disk’s shutter. Dirt or dust on the
Internal magnetic surface will cause data errors.
Never leave disks near a speaker, TV, or other
device that emits a strong magnetic field.
Do not store disks in places exposed to direct
sunlight or sources of high temperature.
Do not place heavy objects such as books on top
of a disk.
Avoid getting the disks wet.
Be sure to store the disks in environmental conditions
as specified below:
• Storage temperature: 4° to 53°C (39° to 127°F).
• Storage humidity: 8 to 90% relative humidity.
• Store in an area free from dust, sand, smoke, etc.
Be sure to apply the disk label at the proper posi-
tion. When changing the label never cover the old label with a new label; always remove the old label first.
• To eject a floppy disk, press the eject button slowly as far as it will go. Then when the disk Is fully ejected, remove it by hand.
• The disk may not be ejected properly if the eject button is pressed too quickly or if it is not pressed in far enough. (The eject button may become stuck halfway with the disk extending from the slot by only a few millimeters). If this is the case, do not attempt to pull out the partially ejected disk. Doing so may dam­age the disk drive mechanism and/or the floppy disk. To remove a partially ejected disk, try pressing the eject button once again or push the disk back into the slot, then repeat the eject proce­dure carefully.
Never open or close the key cover while a disk is
extending from the drive (i.e. in the ejected posi­tion). The key cover may contact the disk, possibly damaging the disk or even the disk drive.
Do not insert anything but floppy disks into the
disk drive. Other objects may cause damage to the disk drive or floppy disk.
Use the 3.5-inch 2DD or 2HD floppy disks with
the Clavinova.

Head Cleaning ...............................................................
The head of the disk drive unit will get dirty as you use it eventually causing data errors. If this oc­curs, clean the head with a 3.5 inch head cleaning disk (available from most computer supply stores).
Data Backup.....................................................................
It is recommended that you copy your recorded songs to another disk for backup (see page 136). If the original disk is damaged or your song is deleted, the backup disk can be used instead of the original.

Basic Operation
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
Virtually all of the Clavinova’s operations are done from the LCD display. When you press a b utton on the panel once, the relevant function’s display appears. Depending on the display that ap­pears, you can conveniently perform various functions and change values/settings by using the buttons located directly below, or to the left or right of the LCD, and the data dial and [–/+] buttons at the right of the LCD. Once you’re familiar with these operations, you can easily use other functions in the same way.
LCD Display and LCD Buttons
The five buttons located under the LCD display are referred to as the LCD buttons. These buttons are used either to select the corresponding items displayed in the LCD or to change the values. The five buttons located to the left and right of the LCD display are referred to as the left/ right LCD buttons. These buttons are used to directly select parameters and settings in the LCD display.
PAG E
The functions of the LCD buttons differ depending on the selected LCD. Keep in mind that functions are enclosed in two types of rectan­gles, one a “soft” rectangle with rounded corners, the other a “hard” rec­tangle with 90-degree corners.

EXIT DISPLAY HOLD
“Hard” rectangle
12
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
When function is within “soft” rectangle:...............................
First press the appropriate LCD button under the display (the selected
item is highlighted), and use the data dial or [–/+] to set the items which are in “soft” rectangles with rounded corners.
Alternately, after selecting the item, press the LCD button again.
For example, when selecting a voice from the display shown below, press the LCD button below VOICE at the lower right. VOICE then is highlighted, and you can select the desired voice by using the data dial or the [–/+] buttons.
Display Highlight
• When selecting an item or parameter in the display, the indication of the selected item is highlighted (appears in reverse display).
When holding down a button...
• In some cases, when one of the LCD buttons or [–/+] buttons is held down, the value or setting changes continu­ously.
Basic Operation
PAG E
EXIT DISPLAY HOLD
For functions or parameters that have and or < and > indica-
tions, you can reset the value to its basic value by simultaneously press­ing both LCD buttons (or both [–/+] buttons).

Basic Operation
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
When function is within “hard” rectangle:.............................
Items within a “hard” rectangle can be directly selected or switched ON/OFF by simply pressing the corresponding LCD button located di­rectly below the desired item.
For example , when selecting the first Demo song in the display shown below, you can immediately begin playback of the first song by pressing the LCD button under 1.
Settings which can be selected by using the left and right LCD but­tons are surrounded by “hard” rectangles. Select these settings directly by pressing the left or right LCD buttons.
PAGE [
Some of the Clavinova’s functions are contained on successive dis­play pages. To select the next page or previous page, press the appropri­ate PAGE [<] [>] button. The current page and the entire number of pages for the function are indicated at the top right of the display.

[EXIT] Button
Press [EXIT] in order to leave the current mode or return to the pre-
vious display.
EXIT DISPLAY HOLD
[DISPLAY HOLD] Button
The [DISPLAY HOLD] button lets you keep the display from chang-
ing. For example, voices and accompaniment styles can be selected by pressing the VOICE button or STYLE button. The display of the se­lected voice/style appears for a few seconds, then changes to the previ­ous display. Displays such as this that appear briefly are called pop-up displays. The [DISPLAY HOLD] lamp flashes to indicate that it is the pop-up display, and that the previous display will appear after a few sec­onds. By pressing the [DISPLAY HOLD] at this point, the lamp stays lit continuously and the selected display stays. Pressing [DISPLAY HOLD] again turns the lamp off and the display returns to the previous one.
Basic Operation
• If [DISPLAY HOLD] is pressed for any non pop-up display, and the lamp is lit up, the pop-up display cannot be opened.
• The duration of pop-up displays can be set with the Pop-up Time parameter (page 153).
Adjusting the Contrast of the LCD Display
Turn the [CONTRAST] button in order to adjust the contrast or
brightness of the display.

Basic Operation
Memory Backup
The Backup function (page 147) can be used to maintain various val­ues and settings, even after the power has been turned off. In the Backup function display, each parameter group to be backed up can be selected individually. Values and settings which are not backed up revert to the basic settings when the power is turned off.
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
Backup of the Last Settings
• For parameters which can be set to Backup ON/OFF, the basic setting is indicated as “Backup of last settings: ON (or OFF)” in the explanation of each parameter.
• Items set to Backup ON can be re­turned to the basic setting anytime by using the Recall function (page 148).
When set to ON, the last setting of these parameters are retained in memory even after the power is turned off. For a list of the backup pa­rameters, see page 147.
If the Clavinova is left unused without the power being turned on for approximately a week, the backed up data is deleted and all the settings return to the basic settings. For this reason, you should turn on the power at least once a week and keep it on for a few minutes.
Display Messages
For ease of operation, the Clavinova shows various messages that either prompt you to the next operation, ask for confirmation, or inform you that the last operation is not effective, valid or appropriate. When such messages appear, follow the instructions as shown. For details about each message, please refer to the “Messages” section on page 2 in the Reference Manual.
