using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs,

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/rack 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

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

instrument to set the desired listening level.

• Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument.

• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps

on the panel or keyboard. This could cause physical injury to you

or others, damage to the instrument or other property, or

GM System Level 1

“GM System Level 1” is an addition to the MIDI standard which ensures that any GM-com-

patible music data can be accurately played by any GM-compatible tone generator,

regardless of manufacturer. The GM mark is affixed to all software and hardware products

that support GM System Level.

XGlite

As its name implies, “XGlite” is a simplified version of Yamaha’s high-quality XG tone gen-

eration format. Naturally, you can play back any XG song data using an XGlite tone gener-

ator. However, keep in mind that some songs may play back differently compared to the

original data, due to the reduced set of control parameters and effects.

USB

USB is an abbreviation for Universal Serial Bus. It is a serial interface for connecting a

computer with peripheral Devices. It allows “hot swapping” (connecting peripheral devices

while the power to the computer is on).

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

Connect the AC adaptor in the order shown in the

illustration.

Using Batteries

This instrument requires the following batteries.

Six “AA” size alkaline (LR6), manganese (R6) or Ni-

MH rechargeable batteries.

The Alkaline batteries or rechargeable Ni-MH batter-

ies are recommended for this instrument, since other

types may result in poorer battery performance.

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

2 Open the battery compartment cover located on

the instrument’s bottom panel.

• You should use an AC adaptor when executing USB flash

drive operations, since battery power may not be reliable

enough to last through these crucial operations.

• Use the specified AC adaptor (page 81) only. Using the

wrong AC adaptor can result in damage to the instrument

or overheating.

• When using the AC adaptor with a removable plug, make

sure to keep the plug attached to the AC adaptor. Using the

plug alone can cause electric shock or fire.

• Never touch the metallic section when attaching the plug.

To avoid electric shock, short circuit or damage, also be

careful that there is no dust between the AC adaptor and

plug.

you are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or mal-

function occurs, immediately turn the power off and dis-

connect the plug from the outlet.

• Follow this procedure in reverse order when disconnecting

the AC adaptor.

• When using Ni-MH batteries, follow the instructions that

came with the batteries.

 Setting the battery type

Depending on the battery type to be used, you may

need to change the battery type setting on this instru-

ment. To change the setting, first turn on the power to

the instrument, then choose the battery type you

would like to use. Alkaline (and manganese) batter-

ies are chosen by default. For details, refer to page

Yo u can confirm the power source at the left corner

of the display.

: The power is supplied from the AC adaptor.

: The power is supplied from the batteries.

Remaining battery power indication

• Connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor with batter-

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

data being recorded or transferred at the time.

• Make sure to set the battery type correctly (page 15).

• When battery power becomes too low for proper opera-

tion, the volume may be reduced, the sound may be dis-

torted, and other problems may occur. When this happens,

make sure to replace all batteries with new ones or

already-recharged ones.

• 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.

• Failure to set the battery type may shorten the amount of

the battery life. Make sure to set the battery type correctly.

NOTICE

NOTE

NOTICE

• When the AC adaptor is plugged in to the AC outlet, the bat-

tery icon does not appear even when batteries are inserted. In

this case, the power is supplied from the AC adaptor.

Indicates that the power will be turned off

immediately.

Indicates that remaining power is insufficient

for operation. Before the power runs out,

replace all the batteries with new ones, or

fully recharged ones (when using recharge-

able types). Note that the instrument may

not work properly, including unusually soft

volume and poor sound quality when

remaining power becomes low.
