CP1 Owner’s Manual
5
• 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. Also, be sure to set the volumes of all
components at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls
while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.
• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thinners,
solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
• During extreme changes in temperature or humidity, condensation may occur
and water may collect on the surface of the instrument. If water is left, the
wooden parts may absorb the water and be damaged. Make sure to wipe any
water off immediately with a soft cloth.
• Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument.
• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the panel
or keyboard. If this happens, turn off the power immediately and unplug the
power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualified
Yamaha service personnel.
• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber 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.
• Do not use the instrument/device or headphones 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 and backing up your data
• The data in the instrument’s Edit Buffer (see page 39) will be lost when it is
turned off. If you wish to keep settings you have made within the Edit Buffer for
use later on, therefore, be sure to store them in User Memory (see page 39) or
save them externally on a USB flash-memory device, a computer, or the like. It
should also be noted that data stored in User Memory can also be lost if the CP1
is damaged or used incorrectly. Accordingly, it is wise to make a copy of
important data on an external memory device.
• Never attempt to turn off the power while data is being written to Flash ROM
(while an “Executing...” message is shown). Turning the power off in loss of all
user data and may cause the system to freeze (due to corruption of data in the
Flash ROM). This means that this instrument may not be able to start up
properly, even when turning the power on next time.
Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.
