Taking Care of Your Clavinova 1 Your Clavinova will give you years of playing pleasure if you observe the simple rules given below: 1. Avoid Humidity & Heat Avoid placing the Clavinova in areas that are subject to excessive humidity or heat. Do not leave the instrument near heaters or in a car exposed to direct sunlight, for example. 2. Avoid Dust & Moisture Avoid locations in which the instrument is likely to be exposed to excessive dust or moisture. 3. Power-off Before Connecting Connections between the Clavinova and any other device must be made with both pieces of equipment turned off. 4. Handle With Care Never apply excessive force to the controls, connectors or other parts of your Clavinova, and avoid scratching or bumping it with hard objects. Further, always turn the POWER switch off after use, and close the key cover to protect the keyboard. 5. Clean Carefully Clean the cabinet and keys of your Clavinova only with a clean, slightly damp cloth. A neutral cleanser may be used if desired. Never use abrasive cleansers, waxes, solvents or chemical dust cloths since these can dull or damage the finish. 6. Never Tamper With the Internal Circuitry Never open the Clavinova cabinet and touch or tamper with the internal circuitry. Tampering with the circuitry can result in electrical shock! 7. Electric Interference Since the Clavinova contains digital circuitry, it may cause interference if placed too close to radio or television receivers. If this occurs, move the instrument further away from the affected equipment. 8. Name Plate Location The Clavinova name plate, including the unit's serial number, is located on the bottom panel of the main unit. 9. Handling Floppy Disks Yamaha Disk Orchestra Collection and Style Disk are writeprotected, and therefore cannot be used to save songs. To save Performance Memory songs from the Performance Memory, a blank floppy disk should be used (one blank disk is supplied with the Clavinova). Taking Care of Your Floppy Disks s Do NOT eject the disk during recording or playback, or at any time when the disk drive lamp is lit. Doing so may damage both the disk and the FDD. s Do NOT turn the Clavinova on or off while the disk is in the drive. s Always eject the disk before turning the Clavinova off. s When ejecting a floppy disk from the disk drive: nism and/or the floppy disk. To remove a partially ejected disk, try pressing the eject button once again or push the disk back into the slot, then repeat the eject procedure carefully. s Never open or close the key cover while a disk is extending from the drive (i.e. in the ejected position). The key cover may contact the disk, possibly damaging the disk or even the disk drive. s Do not insert anything but floppy disks into the disk drive. Other objects may cause damage to the disk drive or floppy disk. s Use only double-sided double density (2DD) 3.5-inch floppy disks with the Clavinova. Precautions Regarding Floppy Disk Use s Never open the disk's shutter. Dirt or dust on the Internal magnetic surface will cause data errors. s Never leave disks near a speaker, TV, or other device that emits a strong magnetic field. s Do not store disks in places exposed to direct sunlight or sources of high temperature. s Do not place heavy objects such as books on top of a disk. s Avoid getting the disks wet. s Be sure to store the disks in environmental condi- tions as specified below: • Storage temperature: 4° to 53°C (39° to 127°F). • Storage humidity: 8 to 90% relative humidity. • Store in an area free from dust, sand, smoke, etc. s Be sure to apply the disk label at the proper position. When changing the label never cover the old label with a new label; always remove the old label first. Head Cleaning The head of the disk drive unit will get dirty as you use it eventually causing data errors. If this occurs, clean the head with a 3.5 inch head cleaning disk (available from most computer supply stores). Data Backup It is recommended that you copy your recorded songs to another disk for backup (see page 46). If the original disk is damaged or your song is deleted, the backup disk can be used instead of the original. Protecting Your Data (Write Protect Tab) Disk drive lamp • To eject a floppy disk, press the eject button slowly as far as it will go. Then when the disk Is fully ejected, remove it by hand. • The disk may not be ejected properly if the eject button is pressed too quickly or if it is not pressed in far enough. (The eject button may become stuck halfway with the disk extending from the slot by only a few millimeters). If this is the case, do not attempt to pull out the partially ejected disk. Doing so may damage the disk drive mecha- Write protect tab open (locked - write protected) Write protect tab closed (unlocked - write enabled)
