Setting Up Make all necessary connections below BEFORE turning the power on. Connecting Headphones (PHONES/OUTPUT Jack) Connecting a Footswitch (SUSTAIN Jack) Setting Up Any pair of stereo headphones with a 1/4" stereo phone plug can be plugged in here for convenient monitoring. The speakers are automatically shut off when a plug is inserted into this jack. The PHONES/OUTPUT jack also functions as an external output. You can connect the PHONES/OUTPUT jack to a keyboard amplifier, stereo system, mixer, tape recorder, or other line-level audio device to send the instrument's output signal to that device. WARNING • Avoid listening with the headphones at high volume for long periods of time; doing so may not only result in ear fatigue, it may be damaging to your hearing. CAUTION • To prevent damage to the speakers, set the volume of the external devices at the minimum setting before connecting them. Failure to observe these cautions may result in electric shock or equipment damage. Also, be sure to set the volumes of all devices at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level. The sustain function lets you produce a natural sustain as you play by pressing a footswitch. A Yamaha FC4 or FC5 footswitch plugged into this jack can be used to switch sustain on and off. NOTE • The sustain function does not affect split voices. • Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the power. • Do not press the footswitch while turning the power on. Doing this changes the recognized polarity of the footswitch, resulting in reversed footswitch operation. Turning the Power On The [ ](Standby/On) switch turns the power to the instrument on ( ) or standby ( ). Turn down the volume by turning the [MASTER VOLUME] control to the left and press the [ ](Standby/On) switch to turn on the power. Press the [ ](Standby/On) switch again to turn the power off. While playing the keyboard, adjust the volume level by using the [MASTER VOLUME] control. CAUTION • Even when the switch is in the "STANDBY" position, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet, and/or remove the batteries from the instrument. Owner's Manual 11

Connecting Headphones
(PHONES/OUTPUT Jack)
Any pair of stereo headphones with a 1/4" stereo
phone plug can be plugged in here for convenient
monitoring. The speakers are automatically shut off
when a plug is inserted into this jack.
The PHONES/OUTPUT jack also functions as an
external output. You can connect the PHONES/OUT-
PUT jack to a keyboard amplifier, stereo system,
mixer, tape recorder, or other line-level audio device
to send the instrument’s output signal to that device.
Connecting a Footswitch
(SUSTAIN Jack)
The sustain function lets you produce a natural sustain
as you play by pressing a footswitch. A Yamaha FC4
or FC5 footswitch plugged into this jack can be used
to switch sustain on and off.
Turning the Power On
The [
](Standby/On) switch turns the power to the
instrument on (
) or standby (
). Turn down the
volume by turning the [MASTER VOLUME] control
to the left and press the [
](Standby/On) switch to
turn on the power. Press the [
](Standby/On) switch
again to turn the power off.
While playing the keyboard, adjust the volume level
by using the [MASTER VOLUME] control.
• Avoid listening with the headphones at high volume for
long periods of time; doing so may not only result in ear
fatigue, it may be damaging to your hearing.
• To prevent damage to the speakers, set the volume of the
external devices at the minimum setting before connecting
them. Failure to observe these cautions may result in elec-
tric shock or equipment damage. Also, be sure to set the
volumes of all devices at their minimum levels and gradu-
ally raise the volume controls while playing the instrument
