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 near the power cord. 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.
