   PRECAUTIONS

 

4

ENGLISH

 

• 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.

• Take care that the key cover does not pinch your fingers, and do not insert a 

finger or hand in any gaps on the key cover or instrument. 

• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the key 

cover, 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 operate the instrument 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

 

• Data in the instrument’s internal memory can be lost due to operational errors or 

malfunction. Be sure to save any important data to external media via a 
computer connected to the instrument. (page 31)

Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.

Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

Even when the power switch is in the “STANDBY” position, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the instrument for a long 
time, make sure you unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet.
