Connecting the Power
Cable

Connect the Disklavier’s power cable to an AC
wall outlet.

Important:

Make sure that the voltage of the AC

wall outlet matches that marked on the

Disklavier’s Serial No. plate.

Using the Remote
Control

The Disklavier is equipped with a remote control
which allows convenient control from almost
anywhere in the room. This chapter provides
notes on handling the remote control.

Installing Batteries in the Remote
Control

Before the remote control can be used, the two
batteries supplied with the Disklavier must be
installed.

Remove the battery cover from the rear of the
remote control, install the batteries, and then
replace the cover.

A diagram inside the battery compartment shows
which way the batteries should be installed. Make
sure you insert them correctly.

Battery Replacement

When the remote control fails to work from a
distance, replace the batteries.

Replacement batteries should be UM-3, AA,

R6P, or LR6 type.

Always replace both batteries.

If the remote control is not to be used for a

prolonged period of time, remove the batteries

to prevent possible damage by battery leakage.

Important:

Be sure to read the section on Handling

Batteries on page ii of “Important” for

details on the safe handling of dry

batteries.

Using the Remote Control

To use the remote control, point it at the remote
control sensor on the Control Unit.

Approx. 5 m (16 ft.)

Equipment

connectors, see Chapter 11 “Using the AUX

Connectors.”
