Before using the KR-3
10
Notes on using headphones
• To prevent damage to the cord, handle the head-
phones only by the headset or the plug.
• Connecting the headphones when the volume of con-
nected equipment is turned up may result in damage
to the headphones. Lower the volume on the KR-3
before plugging in the headphones.
• Listening at excessively high volume levels will not
only damage the headphones, but may also cause
hearing loss. Use the headphones at a moderate vol-
ume level.
3.5 Turning the power on/off
Turn on power to your various devices in the order
specified. By turning on devices in the wrong order,
you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to speak-
ers and other devices.
To turn the power on, turn the [Volume] knob all the
way down, and then press the [Power] button.
The power will turn on, and the Power indicator at the
left front of the KR-3 will light.
After a few seconds, you will be able to play the key-
board to produce sound.
Use the [Volume] knob to adjust the volume.
The KR-3 is equipped with a protection circuit. A brief
interval (a few seconds) after power up is required
before the unit will operate normally.
To turn the power off, turn the [Volume] knob all the
way to the left, and press the [Power] switch.
The Power indicator at the left front of the KR-3 will
go dark, and the power will be turned off.
3.6 Adjusting the sound’s volume
and brilliance
1.
Turn the [Volume] knob to adjust the overall vol-
ume.
2.
Turn the [Brilliance] knob to adjust the brightness
of the sound.
3.7 About the pedals
The KR-3 comes with two pedals that are built into
the supplied stand:
Soft pedal—
This pedal softens the sound. Playing
with the soft pedal depressed produces a sound that is
not as strong as when played with the equivalent
strength. This is the same function as the left-most
pedal on an acoustic piano.
Note: You can change the left pedal’s function (see page 46).
Damper pedal—
Use this pedal when you want the
sound to linger on. While the damper pedal is
depressed, the sound from the keyboard continues to
linger for an extended period, even when you remove
your fingers from the keys.
This is the same function as the right-most pedal on
an acoustic piano.
