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 injury 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-3C or PA-3B 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.

• Always make sure all batteries are inserted in conformity with the +/- polarity markings. Failure to do so might result in overheating, ﬁre, or battery ﬂuid leakage.

• Always replace all batteries at the same time. Do not use new batteries together with old ones. Also do not mix battery types, such as 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 dispose of batteries in ﬁre.

EZ-AG

• Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are not intended to be charged.

• When the batteries run out, or if the instrument is not to be used for a long time, remove the batteries from the instrument to prevent possible leakage of the battery ﬂuid.

• Keep batteries away from children.

• 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.

Location

• 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 in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may generate noise.

(4)-8 1/2

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

• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected adaptor and other cables.

Connections

• Turn off the power to all other electronic components to which the instrument is to be connected before connecting the instrument. Also, be sure to lower all volume settings on all connected components to minimum, then gradually increase the volume while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.

Handling caution

• Do not insert a ﬁnger or hand in any gaps on the instrument.

• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might discolor the panel.

• 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 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.

Saving data

Maintenance

• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning ﬂuids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.

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.

Saving and backing up your data

• Data in the instrument’s internal memory can be lost due to operational errors or malfunction. Be sure to save any important data to external media via a computer connected to the instrument.

EZ-AG

Thank you for choosing a Yamaha EZ GUITAR (EZ-AG)!

For maximum performance and enjoyment,

please read this owner's manual carefully before using your EZ-AG.

When you're done reading the manual,

please store it in a safe place – along with the warranty card –

for future reference.

Main Features

The EZ-AG is a sophisticated yet easy-to-use instrument. Some of its main features and functions include:

• Built-in ampliﬁer and speaker.

• Automatic accompaniment featuring a range of popular songs and chord progressions. (See Page 12)

• Using the STRUM play mode you can play complete songs using only your right hand! (See Page 18)

• The CHORD play mode indicates the ﬁngering for the chords you should play on the EZ-AG’s illuminated frets – an ideal practice and learning tool! (See Page 19)

• New songs can be downloaded from the internet using your computer, then transferred to and played on the EZ-AG! (MIDI interface required see page 22)

• Play using a wide range of different sounds. (See Page 12)

• No tuning required! The EZ-AG is always in perfect tune from the moment you turn it on. You can also select alternate tunings such as drop D and open G. (See Page 14)

• A “virtual capo” can be applied up to the sixth fret. (See Page 14)

• Since the EZ-AG uses switches rather than actual strings over frets, playing techniques that depend on the physical properties of strings – such as string bending, vibrato produced by string bending, and harmonics – are not possible.

Setting Up

This section contains information about setting up your EZ-AG for playing. Make sure to read this section carefully before using the instrument.

Power Requirements

Although the EZ-AG 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 [STANDBY/ON] switch of the EZ-AG is set to STANDBY. w Connect the AC adaptor (PA-3C, PA-3B, or other adaptor speciﬁcally recom-

mended by Yamaha) to the DC IN 12V jack.

e Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.

AC Adaptor

PA-3C

• Use ONLY a Yamaha PA-3C or PA-3B AC Power Adaptor (or other adaptor speciﬁcally recommended by Yamaha) to power your instrument from the AC mains. The use of other adaptors may result in irreparable damage to both the adap tor and the EZ-AG.

• Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the EZ-AG, or during electrical storms.

■ Using Batteries • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

For battery operation the EZ-AG requires six 1.5V “AA” size, or LR6 or equivalent batteries. When the batteries need to be replaced, the volume may be reduced, the sound may be distorted, and other problems may occur. When this happens, turn the power off and replace the batteries, as described below

q Open the battery compartment cover located on the instrument’s bottom panel. w Insert the six new batteries, being careful to follow the polarity markings in

the battery compartment.

e Replace the compartment cover, making sure that it locks ﬁrmly in place.

EZ-AG

• Use only alkaline batteries for this instrument. Other types of batteries (including rechargable batteries) may have sudden drops of power when battery power becomes low, possibly resulting in loss of data in the ﬂash memory and the need to initialize the ﬂash memory.

• When the batteries run down, replace them with a complete set of six new batteries. NEVER mix old and new batter ies.

• 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.
