—Check your power supply—
Make sure that your local AC
mains voltage matches the
voltage specified on the name
plate on the bottom panel. In
some areas a voltage selector
may be provided on the bottom
panel of the main keyboard unit
near the power cord. Make sure
that the voltage selector is set for
the voltage in your area. The
voltage selector is set at 240V
when the unit is initially shipped.
To change the setting use a
"minus" screwdriver to rotate the
selector dial so that the correct
voltage appears next to the
pointer on the panel.

l'instrument peut être équipé d'un
sélecteur de tension situé sur le
panneau inférieur du clavier à
proximité du cordon
d'alimentation.
Vérifiez que ce sélecteur est bien
réglé en fonction de la tension
secteur de votre région. Le
sélecteur de tension est réglé sur
240 V au départ d'usine. Pour
modifier ce réglage, utilisez un
tournevis à lame plate pour
tourner le sélecteur afin de mettre
l'indication correspondant à la
tension de votre région vis à vis
du repère triangulaire situé sur le
panneau.
