why it’s a good idea to choose a keyboard stand that’s suitable for both.
If you’re planning on playing sitting down, you should use a keyboard bench or stool that’s
height adjustable so that you can find the perfect playing height. Ideally, it should have
some padding and be flat to help you keep your back straight.
Connecting the keyboard
The FKB-120 comes with a power adapter that needs to plugged into the keyboard and a
power socket with the correct voltage. Only the adapter that comes with the keyboard
should be used to power it.
Take care that connected cables are not in a place that someone could trip over them. Also
ensure that cables are not subjected to excessive forces. If necessary, an extension cable
can be used or, alternatively, the keyboard should be placed closer the available power
socket.
Cable binders should be used to manage excess lengths of cable. Under no circumstances
should knots be tied in cables themselves.
Batteries
The FKB-120 can be powered by 8 D-cell (1.5V) batteries. They need to be inserted
correctly according to the polarity shown in the battery compartment.
When the keyboard will not be used for a longer period of time, any batteries inserted
should be removed to prevent potential leaks. Always use the same type of batteries from
the same brand and don’t mix old and new batteries.
Using the (built-in) speakers or headphones
The FKB-120 is equipped with built-in speakers that instantly play back whatever you play
on the keyboard. Whenever you want to practise in silence, however, a set of headphones
can be connected to a socket on the back.
The headphone socket is suitable for virtually all headphones that are designed for listening
to music. In the event that your headphones have a connector of a different size, an
adapter can be purchased. Consult your dealer for advice if you’re unsure about what you
need.
Before you put on your headphones and start playing, check the volume level. Pay
particular attention to the volume level before allowing children to play the keyboard while
wearing headphones. It's best to lower the volume on the keyboard before putting
headphones on and only raising it to the volume necessary to hear what you're playing.
This will greatly reduce the chance of any damage to hearing.
The volume can be adjusted using the 'Master Vol' knob.
It's best to take regular breaks to give your hearing a rest and not play for hours on end.
It's also possible to connect external speakers to the keyboard for performance purposes.
