Getting Started
Power Switch
Connect the power cord to the AC receptacle on the underside of the
Andante CGP220. Standard AC current supplies the Andante CGP220's
power. Before connecting the Andante CGP220's AC power cord, make
sure that the power switch (located on the left, underneath the keyboard)
is in the OFF position. Then connect the power cord to an AC outlet.
Turn power on by using the switch is located underneath the left of the
keyboard.
CAUTION:
The CGP220 runs on AC power and works with voltages from 100 - 240 volts at
50–60 Hz. The voltage level is detected and set automatically by the CGP220.
Do not attempt to connect to a non-standard AC power source.
While the unit is performing its power-up routine some of the front panel button LEDs will flash. After a couple of
seconds, the display will read 1 Concert Piano. The Andante CGP220 is now ready to play.
Use the Quick Start instructions on the following pages for the basic steps to change Voices, play Rhythm Patterns,
and play one of the 51 Demo Songs.
Sound and Volume
Before turning on the Andante CGP220, it's always a good idea to set the volume
at its minimum setting (all the way to the left). For a generally comfortable level of
volume while playing, set the knob at its middle position.
The Volume Control is located on the left side of the control panel. Turn this knob
from left to right to increase the volume.
Headphone Jacks
The Andante CGP220 has two 1/4" headphone jacks conveniently located under the
keyboard, near the left leg on the cabinet underside. Plugging in headphones provides
privacy during practice. Both jacks operate the same so two people can play and hear
the music together. When headphones are connected the Andante CGP220's speakers
are silent.
