immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug

from the outlet. Even when the power switch is turned off,

electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level.

When you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to

unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

• Use only the stand specified for the instrument. When attaching it,

use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause damage

to the internal components or result in the instrument falling over.

• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components,

turn off the power for all components. Before turning the power on

or off for all components, set all volume levels to minimum.

• Be sure to set the volumes of all components at their minimum

levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the

PSR-E253/YPT-255 Owner’s Manual

Setting Up

Power Requirements

Although the instrument will run either from an AC

adaptor or batteries, Yamaha recommends use of an

AC adaptor whenever possible. An AC adaptor is

more environmentally friendly than batteries and

does not deplete resources.

Using an AC adaptor

1 Make sure that the power of the instrument is off

(the backlight display is off).

2 Connect the AC adaptor to the DC IN jack (power

supply jack).

3 Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.

Using Batteries

This instrument requires six “AA” size, Alkaline (LR6)/

Manganese (R6) batteries, or rechargeable nickel-

metal hydride batteries (rechargeable Ni-MH batter-

ies). The Alkaline batteries or rechargeable Ni-MH

batteries are recommended for this instrument, since

other types may result in poorer battery performance.

 Installing the batteries

1 Make sure that the power of the instrument is off.

2 Open the battery compartment cover located on

the instrument’s bottom panel.

3 Insert the six new batteries, being careful to follow

the polarity markings on the inside of the compart-

ment.

4 Replace the compartment cover, making sure that

it locks firmly in place.

When battery power becomes too low for proper

operation, the volume may be reduced, the sound

may be distorted, and other problems may occur.

When this happens, make sure to replace all batter-

ies with new ones or already-recharged ones.

• Use the specified adaptor (page 42) only. Using the

wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instrument

or overheating.

• See “For the AC adaptor with a Removable Plug” (page

46).

• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC

outlet you are using is easily accessible. If some trou-

ble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the

power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet.

• After turning off the power, follow this procedure in reverse

order to disconnect the AC adaptor.

• Power will be automatically drawn from the AC adaptor if an

AC adaptor is connected while batteries are installed in the

instrument.

WARNING

CAUTION

DC IN jack

(page 11)

NOTE

• Connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor with batteries

installed may turn the power off, resulting in loss of data

being recorded or transferred at the time.

• Change the setting of the instrument according to the kind

of battery you are using (Battery Type; page 42).

• This instrument cannot charge the batteries. Use only the

specified charger device when charging.

• Power will be automatically drawn from the AC adaptor if an

AC adaptor is connected while batteries are installed in the

instrument.

Setting Up

 Setting the battery type

After installing new batteries and turning the power

on, make sure to set the Battery Type appropriately

(rechargeable or not) via Function number 023 (page

31).

Using the music rest

Connecting Headphones (sold

separately) or External Audio

Equipment

A pair of stereo headphones with a 1/4” stereo phone

plug can be plugged in here for convenient monitor-

ing. 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 computer, a keyboard amplifier,

stereo system, mixer, recorder, or other line-level

audio device to send the instrument’s output signal to

that device.

Connecting a Footswitch to the

[SUSTAIN] jack

You can produce a natural sustain as you play by

pressing a Footswitch (FC5/FC4A; sold separately)

plugged into the [SUSTAIN] jack.

Turning the Power On/Off

1 Turn down the [MASTER VOLUME] dial to “MIN.”

2 Press the [ ] (Standby/On) switch to turn on the

power. While playing the keyboard, adjust the

[MASTER VOLUME] dial. To turn off the power,

press the [ ] (Standby/On) switch again for a

second.

• Failure to set the Battery Type may shorten the amount of

the battery life. Make sure to set the Battery Type correctly.

• Do not use the instrument/device or headphones for a long

period of time at a high or uncomfortable volume level,

since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you experi-
