Troubleshooting

Problem

Possible Cause and Solution

•

The Clavinova does not turn on; there is no

power.

Make sure that the Clavinova has been plugged in properly. Securely insert the

female plug into the AC socket on the Clavinova, and the male plug into a proper

AC outlet (page 17).

•

A click or pop is heard when the power is

turned on or off.

This is normal when electrical current is applied to the instrument.

•

Noise is heard from the Clavinova’s speakers.

Using a mobile phone in close proximity to the Clavinova may produce

interference. To prevent this, turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away from

the Clavinova.

•

The display is too bright or too dark to read.

The brightness of the display may be affected by the surrounding temperature;

try adjusting the contrast (page 17).

•

The keyboard volume is low compared to that

of the Auto Accompaniment or song playback.

The overall keyboard volume or the independent volume level of the keyboard

part may be set too low. Raise the MAIN/LAYER/LEFT volume voices or lower

the STYLE/SONG volume in the BALANCE display (page 65).

•

The volume of the Auto Accompaniment or

song playback is low compared to that of the

keyboard.

The volume level of one or more accompaniment parts or song channels is set

too low. Raise the part or channel level(s) in the appropriate MIXER display

(page 123).

•

The overall volume is low, or no sound is

heard.

•

The Master Volume is set too low; set it to an appropriate level with the

[MASTER VOLUME] dial.

•

The volume of the individual parts may be set too low. Raise the volume of

MAIN, LAYER, LEFT, STYLE, and SONG in the BALANCE display (page 65).

•

Make sure the desired channel is set to ON (page 65, 80).

•

Headphones are connected, disabling the speaker output. (This happens

when the speaker setting is set to “HEADPHONE SW”; page 144.) Unplug the

headphones.

•

Make sure the speaker setting is set to ON (page 144).

•

Make sure the Local Control function is set to ON (page 140).

•

The damper, sostenuto and soft functions do

not work for the relevant pedals.

Each pedal has been assigned to a different function. Make sure that each pedal

is properly assigned to SUSTAIN, SOSTENUTO, and SOFT (page 134).

•

The damper pedal has no effect, or the sound

continuously sustains even when the damper

pedal is not pressed.

The pedal cable/plug may not be properly connected. Make sure to securely

insert the pedal plug into the proper jack (page 156 - 159).

•

Not all simultaneously-played notes sound.

You may be exceeding the maximum polyphony of the Clavinova. When this

happens, the earliest played notes will stop sounding, letting the latest played

notes sound. See page 162 for information on the maximum polyphony.

•

Some of the Sweet Voices (page 92) appear

instead as Natural voices when making

settings in the Sound Creator, Mixing Console

and Pedal control (in Function).

This is normal. The Sweet Voices below are built into the Natural tone generation

source (page 92):

Sweet! Harmonica, Sweet! Oboe, Sweet! Violin

•

Accompaniment style or Song playback does

not start.

•

MIDI Clock may be set to “EXTERNAL.” Make sure this is set to “INTERNAL”

(page 141).

•

Make sure to press the appropriate [START/STOP] button. To play an

accompaniment style, press the

STYLE

[START/STOP] button (page 65); to

playback a song, press the

SONG

[START/STOP] button (page 78).

•

“New Song” (a blank song) has been selected. Make sure to select an

appropriate song in the SONG display (page 78).

•

The song has been stopped at the end of the song data. Return to the

beginning of the song by pressing the [TOP] button (page 80).

•

Only the rhythm channel plays.

Make sure the Auto Accompaniment function is turned on; press the [ACMP]

button.

•

The accompaniment style does not start,

even when Synchro Start is in standby

condition and a key is pressed.

You may be trying to start accompaniment by playing a key in the right hand

range of the keyboard. Make sure to play a key in the left-hand (accompaniment)

range of the keyboard.
