Playing The Keyboard; Opening/Closing The Fallboard; Using The Music Rest - Yamaha AvantGrand N3X Owner's Manual

Opening/Closing the Fallboard

To open the fallboard, hold the hand grip with both hands, then lift the fallboard slightly, and push it up
and back. To close the fallboard, lower the fallboard back in place gently with both hands.
CAUTION
Be careful to avoid catching your fingers
when opening/closing the fallboard.
The fallboard is equipped with the special SOFT-CLOSE™ mechanism which closes the cover slowly.
CAUTION
• Hold the fallboard with both hands when opening or closing it. Do not release it until it is fully opened or closed. Be careful to
avoid catching fingers (yours or others, especially children's) between the fallboard and the unit.
• Do not apply excessive force when closing the fallboard. Applying excessive force to the fallboard when closing it could dam-
age the SOFT-CLOSE™ mechanism, and possibly result in injury to your hands and fingers caught under the closing fall-
board.
• Do not place anything (such as metal objects or pieces of paper) on top of the fallboard. Small objects placed on the fallboard
may fall inside the unit when the fallboard is opened and may be nearly impossible to remove. Once inside, they could cause
electric shock, short circuit, fire or other serious damage to the instrument.

Using the Music Rest

CAUTION
When raising or lowering the music rest, do not release your hands from the music rest until it is all the way up or down.
To raise the music rest:
1
Gently open the front portion of the lid.
2
Pull the music rest up and toward yourself until it
remains at the desired angle. The music rest is
latched at angles of 35 degrees and 70 degrees.
3
Open the music brace.
CAUTION
Do not apply excessive force to the music brace. Doing so could
release the stopper of the music rest and the music rest could be
lowered suddenly, possibly resulting in injury to your hands and fin-
gers caught under the music rest.
