For your own safety, never remove or disable the ground conductor from the unit or of the AC power cord. ◊ The EG2280USB/EG8280USB is an electronic piano. Unlike an acoustic piano, this instrument does not need to be tuned. ◊ The sound quality may diminish within the range of powerful broadcasting stations and high-frequency sources. Increase the distance between the transmitter and the device and use shielded cables for all connections. 2.1 Power on/off The EG2280USB/EG8280USB is a digital, i.e. electronic, piano. Therefore, mains power is required to operate the instrument and it has to be switched on or off. The following section describes how to connect the unit to the mains. ◊ The POWER switch to the left of the keyboard must be in the "off" position when you connect the unit to the mains. FUSE HOLDER / IEC RECEPTACLE The EG2280USB/EG8280USB is connected to the mains using a standard IEC receptacle. All required safety regulations have been adhered to. A matching power cable is included with the unit. Blown fuses must be replaced with a fuse of the same type and rating. 1) Connect the power cable supplied with the unit to the connector provided on the underside of the instrument and to a wall socket. 2) Press the POWER switch to the left of the keyboard to switch the instrument on or off. The LED on the front panel lights up when the EG2280USB/ EG8280USB is ready for operation. ◊ After playing, switch off the unit with the POWER switch. The POWER LED on the front panel will go out. Please note: Merely switching the unit off does not mean that it is fully disconnected from the mains.
