Introduction
Getting Started — Playing the Clavinova as a Piano
1.
Connect the power cord.
First insert the plug of the power cable into the AC connector on the Clavinova, then plug the other
end of the cable into the proper AC outlet on the wall. In some areas a plug adaptor may be provided to
match the pin configuration of the AC wall outlets in your area. For more information on connecting
the power cord, refer to the assembly instructions on page 69.
WARNING
Make sure your instrument is rated for the AC voltage supplied in the area in which it is to be used (voltage rating appears on the
name plate on the bottom panel). In some areas, a voltage selector may be provided on the bottom panel of the main keyboard unit
near the AC IN. Make sure that the voltage selector is set for the voltage in your area. Connecting the unit to the wrong AC supply
can cause serious damage to the internal circuitry and may even pose a shock hazard!
Use only the AC power cord supplied with your instrument. If the supplied cord is lost or damaged and needs to be replaced,
contact your Yamaha dealer. The use of an inappropriate replacement can pose a fire and shock hazard!
The type of AC power cord provided with your instrument may be different depending on the country in which it is purchased. (In
some areas a plug adaptor may be provided to match the pin configuration of the AC wall outlets in your area.) Do NOT modify the
plug provided with your instrument. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

If you close the key cover without turning the power off, the power indicator remains lit, indicating that the power is still on.
When you’re ready to turn off the power, press the power switch again.
The display and the power indicator turn off.
CAUTION
Even when the instrument is turned off, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the
instrument for a long time or during electrical storms, make sure you unplug the AC power plug from the wall AC outlet.
