IMPORTANT
Check your power supply
Make sure that your local AC mains voltage matches the voltage specified 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. Make sure that the voltage selector is set for the voltage in your area. The
voltage selector is set at 240V when the unit is initially shipped. To change the setting use a
"minus" screwdriver to rotate the selector dial so that the correct voltage appears next to the
pointer on the panel.
Before using the PF-1000, be sure to read
Precautions
on pages 3-4.
