PRECAUTIONS

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING

* Please keep these precautions in a safe place for future reference.

WARNING

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical shock,

short-circuiting, damages, ﬁre or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or

modify them in any way. The instrument contains no user-serviceable

parts. If it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immedi-

ately and have it inspected by qualiﬁed Yamaha service personnel.

• Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet

conditions, or place containers on it containing liquids which might spill

into any openings.

• If the AC adaptor cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a

sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument, or if any unusual

smells or smoke should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the

power switch, disconnect the adaptor plug from the outlet, and have the

instrument inspected by qualiﬁed Yamaha service personnel.

• Use the speciﬁed adaptor (PA-3B or an equivalent recommended by

Yamaha) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instru-

ment or overheating.

• Before cleaning the instrument, always remove the electric plug from the

outlet. Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.

• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may

have accumulated on it.

CAUTION

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the

instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Do not place the AC adaptor cord near heat sources such as heaters or

radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord,

place heavy objects on it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk

on, trip over, or roll anything over it.

• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always

hold the plug itself and not the cord.

• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-con-

nector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause over-

heating in the outlet.

• Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or during

electrical storms.

• Always make sure all batteries are inserted in conformity with the +/-

polarity markings. Failure to do so might result in overheating, ﬁre, or bat-

tery ﬂuid leakage.

• Always replace all batteries at the same time. Do not use new batteries

together with old ones. Also, do not mix battery types, such as alkaline bat-

teries with manganese batteries, or batteries from different makers, or dif-

ferent types of batteries from the same maker, since this can cause

overheating, ﬁre, or battery ﬂuid leakage.

• Do not dispose of batteries in ﬁre.

• Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are not intended to be charged.

• When the batteries run out, or if the instrument is not to be used for a long

time, remove the batteries from the instrument to prevent possible leakage

of the battery ﬂuid.

• Keep batteries away from children.

• If the batteries do leak, avoid contact with the leaked ﬂuid. If the battery

ﬂuid should come in contact with your eyes, mouth, or skin, wash immedi-

ately with water and consult a doctor. Battery ﬂuid is corrosive and may

possibly cause loss of sight or chemical burns.

• 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. Also, be sure to set the

volumes of all components at their minimum levels and gradually raise the

volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening

level.

• Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme

cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the

day) to prevent the possibility of panel disﬁguration or damage to the inter-

nal components.

• Do not use the instrument near other electrical products such as televi-

sions, radios, or speakers, since this might cause interference which can

affect proper operation of the other products.

• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might acci-

dentally fall over.

• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected adaptor and other

cables.

• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thin-

ners, solvents, cleaning ﬂuids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.

Also, do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since

this might discolor the panel or keyboard.

• Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and

do not use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.

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

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

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

• Do not operate the instrument for a long period of time at a high or uncom-

fortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you

experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.

■

SAVING USER DATA

• Always save data to an external device such as the Yamaha MIDI data ﬁler

MDF3 frequently, in order to help prevent the loss of important data due to

a malfunction or user operating error.

Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

Make sure to discard used batteries according to local regulations.

Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper

use or modiﬁcations to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.

Setting Up

This section contains information about setting up your PSR-260 for playing. Make sure to

read this section carefully before using the instrument.

Power Requirements

Although the PSR-260 will run either from an optional 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 Power Adaptor • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

To connect your PSR-260 to a wall socket, you will need the optionally available

Yamaha PA-3B Power Adaptor. Use of other AC adaptors could result in damage

to the instrument, so be sure to ask for the right kind. Connect one end of the

adaptor to the DC IN 10-12V jack on the rear panel of your PSR-260, and the

other end to a suitable electrical outlet.

■

Using Batteries • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

●

Inserting Batteries

Turn the instrument upside-down and remove the battery compartment lid. Insert

six 1.5-volt size “D” (SUM-1, R-20 or equivalent) batteries as shown in the illus-

tration, making sure that the positive and negative terminals are properly aligned,

and replace the lid.

●

When the Batteries Run Down

When the batteries run low and the battery voltage drops below a certain level, the

PSR-260 may not sound or function properly. As soon as this happens, replace

them with a complete set of six new batteries.

Turning On the Power

With the AC power adaptor connected or with batteries installed, simply press the

STANDBY switch until it locks in the ON position. When the instrument is not in

use, be sure to turn the power off. (Press the switch again so that it pops up.)

• Use ONLY a Yamaha PA-3B AC

Power Adaptor (or other adap-

tor speciﬁcally recommended

by Yamaha) to power your

instrument from the AC mains.

The use of other adaptors may

result in irreparable damage to

both the adaptor and the PSR-

260.

• Unplug the AC Power Adaptor

when not using the PSR-260,

or during electrical storms.

BATTERIES 1.5V

• Never mix old and new batter-

ies or different types of batter-

ies (e.g., alkaline and

manganese).

• To prevent possible damage

from battery leakage, remove

the batteries from the instru-

ment if it is not to be used for a

long time.

• Even when the switch is in the

“STANDBY” position, electric-

ity is still ﬂowing to the instru-

ment at the minimum level.

When you are not using the

PSR-260 for a long time, make

sure you unplug the AC power

adaptor from the wall AC out-

let, and/or remove the batteries

from the instrument.

Setting Up

Accessory Jacks

■

Using Headphones• • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

For private practicing and playing without disturbing others, connect a set of ste-

reo headphones to the rear panel PHONES/OUTPUT jack. Sound from the built-

in speaker system is automatically cut off when you insert a headphone plug into

this jack.

■

Connecting a Keyboard Ampliﬁer or Stereo System • • • • • • •

Though the PSR-260 is equipped with a built-in speaker system, you can also play

it through an external ampliﬁer/speaker system. First, make sure the PSR-260 and

any external devices are turned off, then connect one end of a stereo audio cable to

the LINE IN or AUX IN jack(s) of the other device and the other end to the rear

panel PHONES/OUTPUT jack on the PSR-260.

■

Using a Sustain Footswitch • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

This feature lets you use an optional footswitch (Yamaha FC4 or FC5) to sustain

the sound of the keyboard voice. This is used in the same way as a damper pedal

on an acoustic piano — press and hold down the footswitch as you play the key-

board to sustain the sound.

■

Using the MIDI Terminals • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • •

The PSR-260 also features MIDI terminals, allowing you to interface the PSR-

260 with other MIDI instruments and devices. (For more information, see page

52.)

• To prevent damage to the

speakers, set the volume of the

external devices at the mini-

mum setting before connect-

ing 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 grad

ually raise the volume controls

while playing the instrument to

set the desired listening level.

• 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.

cally produces appropriate bass, chord and rhythm backing. Use

your right hand to play melodies, and you’ll sound like an entire

band!

Select one of the Lesson songs.

For instructions on selecting songs, see page 29.

Select the part you wish to work on (left or

right) and the Lesson step.

If you want to work on the right-hand part, press the

[R] button; to work on the left, press the [L] button.

Timing

• Each press of the corresponding button ([L] or [R]) alternately selects

Lessons 1 - 3. Pressing both buttons simultaneously calls up Lesson

4, Both Hands.

Using the Lesson Feature

All of the PSR-260’s songs can be used with the educational Lesson feature. Lesson makes it fun and easy to master these

songs. You can practice the left- and right-hand parts of each song individually: simply press the appropriate button, [L] (left)

or [R] (right). The practice steps below apply to either hand.

Lesson 1 — Timing. . . . . . . . .This lesson step lets you practice just the timing of the notes.

Lesson 2 — Waiting . . . . . . . .In this lesson step, the PSR-260 waits for you to play the correct notes before continuing

playback of the song.

Lesson 3 — Minus One . . . . .This lesson step plays back the song with one part muted — letting you play and master the

missing part yourself.

Lesson 4 — Both Hands. . . . .This lesson step is the same as “Minus One,” except in that both the left- and right-hand

parts are muted — letting you play and master both hands.

Start the Lesson.

When you’re ﬁnished, stop the Lesson.

• You can also exit from the Lesson by pressing one of the LESSON

buttons ([L] or [R]) repeatedly until “OFF” is shown in the display.

Step 4 Lesson

Grade

The PSR-260 has a built-in evaluation function that moni-

tors your practicing and — like a real teacher — tells you

how well you did each exercise. Four grades are assigned,

depending on your performance: “OK,” “Good,” “Very

Good,” and “Excellent.”

Want to ﬁnd out more? See page 39.

Talking

This feature “talks” to you through the speakers,

“announcing” the Grade comments as well as the titles of

the Lesson steps.

Want to ﬁnd out more? See page 40.

Changing the Tempo

Naturally, you can change the tempo (speed) of the song

to your liking, letting you slow down difﬁcult passages

and bring up the tempo gradually until you master them at

normal speed.

Press the [TEMPO/TAP] button.

Use the numeric keypad to set the desired

tempo.

TEMPO

116

• The PSR-260 also has a convenient Tap Tempo function that allows

you to “tap” a new tempo in real time. (See page 44.)

This step lets you work on the timing of the notes. In Les-

son 1, the particular note you play on the keyboard is

unimportant. The PSR-260 checks your timing and how

rhythmically “tight” your playing is.

Want to ﬁnd out more? See page 36.

In Lesson 2, you practice playing the notes correctly as

they appear in the display notation. The accompaniment

pauses and waits for you to play the notes correctly before

it continues.

Want to ﬁnd out more? See page 37.

In Lesson 3, one of the parts is muted, and you practice

the missing part in time with the rhythm.

Want to ﬁnd out more? See page 37.

Lesson 4 is just like Lesson 3, except that the parts for

both hands are muted, letting you practice the missing

parts in time with the rhythm.
