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 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.
• Use the specified adaptor (PA-6 or an equivalent recommended by
Yamaha) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the
instrument or overheating.
• 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 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.
• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord.
• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multipleconnector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause
overheating in the outlet.
• Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or during
electrical storms.
• 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 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 dispose of batteries in fire.
• Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are not intended to be charged.
• 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.
• Keep batteries away from children.
• 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 adaptor and other
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 or plastic 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.
• Use only the stand specified for the instrument. When attaching the
stand, use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause damage to the internal components or result in the instrument falling over.
• 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 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.
Make sure to discard used batteries according to local regulations.

Shortcuts
To make operation as easy and as efficient as possible, the PSR-730/630 features a number of
“shortcuts” which allow you to jump directly to certain functions without having to use the MENU
and SUB MENU buttons. All of these shortcuts work in the same way: press and hold a panel
button for a few seconds to go to the related function. For example, if you press and hold the
[REVERB] button for a few seconds , y ou will go directly to the REVERB type selection function.
The shorcuts will also be described where appropriate throughout this manual.

Setting Up
This section contains information about setting up your PSR-730/630 and preparing to play.
Be sure to go through this section carefully before using your PSR-730/630.
Power Supply
• Never interrupt the power
supply (e.g. remove the
Although the PSR-730/630 will run either from an optional AC adaptor or
batteries, Y amaha recommends use of the more environmentally safe A C adaptor.
Follow the instructions below according to the power source you intend to use .
■ Using An Optional AC Power Adaptor
batteries or unplug the
AC adaptor) during any
PSR-730/630 record operation! Doing so can result in a loss of data.
z Plug an optional Yamaha PA-6 Power Adaptor into a wall AC outlet.
x Then plug the DC output cable from the PA-6 into the DC IN 10-12V jack on
the rear panel of the PSR-730/630. The internal batteries are automatically
disconnected when an AC Power Adaptor is used.
DC IN 10-12V
PA-6
When turning the power OFF, simply reverse the procedure.
■ Using Batteries
For battery operation the PSR-730/630 requires six 1.5V SUM-1, “D” size, R20 or equivalent batteries.
When the batteries need to be replaced “Lo Battery!!” may appear on top of the
display, the volume ma y be reduced, the sound may be distorted, and other problems
may occur. When this happens, turn the power off and replace the batteries.
Replace the batteries as follows:
z Open the battery compartment cover located on the instrument’ s bottom panel.
x Insert the six new batteries, being careful to follow the polarity markings on
the inside of the compartment.
c Replace the compartment cover, making sure that it locks firmly in place.
• Use ONLY a Yamaha PA-6 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 adaptor
and the PSR-730/630.
• Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the PSR730/630, or during electrical
storms.
• 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.
• Plugging or unplugging
the AC power adaptor
while the batteries are installed will reset the PSR730/630 to the defaults.
◆ Important Notes on Battery Use
• Since the PSR-730 and PSR-630 consume a considerable
amount of power , Yamaha recommends the use of an A C power
adaptor rather than batteries. The batteries should be considered an auxiliary power source for data backup.
• The floppy disk drive, in pa rticular, uses a large amount of
power, so it is impor tant to always use an AC power ada ptor
when performing disk-intensive operations such as song recording/playback or data load/save. If you attempt to use
battery power for these operations and the batteries do fail, you
will lose not only the data you’re recording or sa ving, b ut also
12
other data in internal memory including user styles, user pads,
registration memory, etc.
• Taking the above precautions into consideration, always use an
AC power adaptor when using the PSR-630/730 for an important performance or when creating important data.
• When using batteries and the “Lo Battery!!” war ning initially
appears on the display, the v olume will drop a little but you will
be able to use the instrument for a while longer. When the “Lo
Battery!!” warning begins to appear every few seconds, replace the batteries as soon as possible.
Connections
■ PHONES Jack
■ SUSTAIN Pedal Jack
SUSTAIN
■ FOOT VOLUME Jack
FOOT VOL
A standard pair of stereo headphones can be
plugged in here for private pr actice or late-night
playing. The internal stereo speaker system is
automatically shut off when a pair of headphones is plugged into the PHONES jack.
Do not listen with the headphones at high volume for long periods of time. Doing so may
cause hearing loss.
The sustain function causes the sound from a
depressed key to continue, even after the key is
released. Plug an optional Yamaha FC4 or FC5
footswitch into the sustain jack and use it to
switch sustain on and off. The footswitch connected to this jack can also be set to replicate the
functions of some panel buttons, doing things
like starting and stopping accompaniment (page
117).
Connecting an optional Y amaha FC7 foot controller lets you use your foot to change the
volume as you play the PSR-730/630 (expression function). The foot controller connected to
this jack can also be set to replicate the functions
of the main volume controls, such as accompaniment or song volume (page 117).
Setting Up
• Be sure that you do not
press the footswitch while
turning the power on. If
you do, the ON/OFF status of the footswitch will
be reversed.
• When the sustain or
sostenuto pedal functions are being used
(page 117), some
voices may sound continuously or have a long
decay after the notes
have been released
while the pedal is held.

■ MIDI IN/OUT and TO HOST Connectors
See page 121.
The rear-panel AUX OUT R and L/L+R jacks
deliver the output of the PSR-730/630 for connection to a keyboard amplifier, stereo sound
system, a mixing console, or tape recorder. If
you will be connecting the PSR-730/630 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 left- and right-channel signals ar e combined and delivered via the L/L+R jack so you
don’t lose any of the PSR-730/630 sound. (Use
phone plugs).
• Connecting PSR730/630 to external
equipment only after
turning off power for
all devices. To prevent damage to the
speakers, set the
volume of the external devices at the
minimum setting before connecting
them. Failure to observe these cautions
may result in electric shock or equipment damage.

A Word About the “R1”, “R2”, and “L” Voices
The PSR-730/630 allows up to three voices to be selected at the same time: “R1”
(Right-hand 1), “R2”, (Right-hand 2) and “L” (Left-hand). The “R1” voice is the basic
voice of the PSR-730/630 and it’s used when you’re playing a single voice over the
entire range of the keyboard as with an acoustic piano. Y ou can also have two voices
play together at the same time (R1 voice and R2 voice) or play dif ferent voices with
the right and left hands (R1 voice and L voice) (pages 19, 20). The numbers of the
currently selected R1, R2, and L voices are all shown at the lower right of on the
display panel. Normally, the R1 voice n umber is also shown at the upper right of the
display panel.
