No sound is produced when I 
press a keyboard key.

1. The 

VOLUME controller is set to 

“MIN”.

1. Rotate the 

VOLUME controller more 

towards “MAX”.

)

 EN-10

2. Headphones or an adaptor plug is 

plugged into one of the 

PHONES 

jacks.

2. Disconnect whatever is connected to the 

PHONES jacks.

)

 EN-8

3. MIDI Local control is turned off.

3. Turn on the Local control setting.

)

 EN-32

The pitch of the Digital Piano 
is off.

1. The Digital Piano’s key setting is 

something other than “0”.

1. Change the key setting to “0”, or turn Digital 

Piano power off and then back on again.

)

 EN-31

2. Digital Piano tuning is incorrect.

2. Adjust Digital Piano tuning, or turn the 

Digital Piano off and then back on again.

)

 EN-31

3. Octave shift is enabled.

3. Change the octave shift setting to 0.

)

 EN-31

4. A non-standard temperament setting 

is being used.

4. Change the temperament setting to 

“0:Equal”, which is the standard modern 
tuning.

)

 EN-31

Nothing happens when I 
press a pedal.

1. The pedal unit cable is not 

connected.

1. Connect the cable correctly.

)

 EN-40

2. The pedal unit cable plug is not 

plugged in completely.

2. Make sure that the pedal unit cable plug is 

inserted as far as it will go into the pedal 
connector on the bottom of the Digital 
Piano.

Tones and/or effects sound 
strange. Turning power off 
and then back on again does 
not eliminate the problem.

Example:

 Note intensity does 

not change even though I 
alter key pressure.

The “Back up” feature is turned on.

Turn off “Back up”. Next, turn power off and 
then back on again.

)

 EN-32

I cannot transfer data after 
connecting the Digital Piano 
to a computer.

1. Check to make sure that the USB cable is 

connected to the Digital Piano and 
computer, and that the correct device is 
selected with your computer’s music 
software.

)

 EN-33

2. Turn off the Digital Piano and then exit the 

music software on your computer. Next, 
turn the Digital Piano back on and then 
restart the music software on your 
computer.

It takes a long time before I 
can use the Digital Piano after 
I turn it on.

Digital Piano memory data was 
corrupted because a data transfer 
operation with a computer was in 
progress the last time you turned off the 
piano. When this happens, the Digital 
Piano performs a memory format 
operation the next time you turn it on. 
You cannot perform any other operation 
while a format operation is in progress.

It takes about 20 seconds after you turn on 
power to perform the memory format 
operation. Wait until the format operation is 
complete. Note that you should take care to 
avoid turning off the Digital Piano while a data 
transfer operation with a computer is in 
progress.

)

 EN-34

A tone’s quality and volume 
sounds slightly different 
depending where it is played 
on the keyboard.

This is an unavoidable result of the digital sampling process,

*

 and does not indicate malfunction.

*

Multiple digital samples are taken for the low range, middle range, and high range of the original 
musical instrument. Because of this, there may be very slight differences in tonal quality and 
volume between sample ranges.

When I press a button, the 
note that is sounding cuts out 
momentarily or there is a 
slight change in how effects 
are applied.

This happens when the sounds of multiple parts are sounding at the same time while using layer, 
using the Duet Mode, playing back a built-in tune, recording, etc. Pressing a button when one of 
these conditions exists will cause the effect setting that is built into the tone to change automatically, 
which causes notes to cut out momentarily or causes a slight change in how effects are being 
applied.
