using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs,
immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug
from the outlet. Even when the power switch is turned off,
electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level.
When you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to
unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.
Use only the stand specified for the instrument. When attaching it,
use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause
damage to the internal components or result in the instrument
falling over.
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.
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.
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. This could cause physical injury to you
or others, damage to the instrument or other property, or
operational failure.
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.

Power Requirements
Although the instrument will run either from an AC
adaptor or batteries, Yamaha recommends use of an
AC adaptor whenever possible. An AC adaptor is
more environmentally friendly than batteries and
does not deplete resources.
Using an AC Adaptor
Connect the AC adaptor in the order shown in the
illustration.
Using Batteries
This instrument requires six “AA” size, Alkaline (LR6)/
Manganese (R6) batteries, or rechargeable nickel-
metal hydride batteries (rechargeable Ni-MH batter-
ies). The Alkaline batteries or rechargeable Ni-MH
batteries are recommended for this instrument, since
other types may result in poorer battery performance.
1 Make sure that the power of the instrument is off.
2 Open the battery compartment cover located on
the instrument’s bottom panel.
3 Insert the six new batteries, being careful to follow
the polarity markings on the inside of the com-
partment.
4 Replace the compartment cover, making sure that
it locks firmly in place.
• Use the specified AC adaptor (page 44) only. Using the
wrong AC adaptor can result in damage to the instrument
or overheating.
• When using the AC adaptor with a removable plug, make
sure to keep the plug attached to the AC adaptor. Using the
plug alone can cause electric shock or fire.
• If the plug is accidentally removed from the AC adaptor,
slide it back in until it clicks into place, taking care to
avoid touching any internal metal parts. To avoid electric
shock, short circuit or damage, also be careful that there
is no dust between the AC adaptor and plug.
• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet
you are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or mal-
function occurs, immediately turn the power off and dis-
connect the plug from the outlet.
• Follow the order shown above in reverse when disconnecting
the AC adaptor.

CAUTION
NOTE
• When the batteries run out, or if the instrument is not to be
used for a long time, remove the batteries from the instru-
ment.
• Connecting or disconnecting the power adaptor with bat-
teries installed may turn the power off, resulting in loss of
data being recorded at the time.
• Make sure to set the battery type correctly (page 13).
• When battery power becomes too low for proper opera-
tion, the volume may be reduced, the sound may be dis-
torted, and other problems may occur. When this happens,
make sure to replace all batteries with new ones or already
recharged ones.
