Yamaha CS1X Owner's Manual page 2

LOCATION
• In order to avoid causing serious damage to
the CS1x, do not expose it to direct sunlight,
high temperatures, excessive humidity,
excessive dust or strong vibration.
• Always place the CS1x on a solid surface such
as a keyboard stand or a sturdy table or desk.
POWER SUPPLY
• Turn the power switch off when the CS1x is
not in use.
• Use only the supplied PA-3B or an equivalent
AC power adaptor. Use of an incompatible
adaptor may result in irreparable damage to
the CS1x, and could even pose a serious
shock hazard.
• The power adaptor should be unplugged
from the AC outlet if the CS1x is not to be
used for an extended period of time.
• Unplug the CS1x during electrical storms.
• Avoid plugging the CS1x into the same AC
outlet as appliances with high power
consumption such as electric heaters or
ovens. Also avoid using multiple-plug
adapters since these can result in reduced
sound quality and possibly even damage to
the instrument.
UNPLUG ALL INSTRUMENTS
WHEN MAKING CONNECTIONS
• To avoid causing damage to the CS1x and
other devices to which it is connected, such
as a sound system or MIDI instruments, turn
off the power and unplug all related devices
prior to connecting or disconnecting audio
and MIDI cables.
PRECAUTIONS
IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ
BEFORE PROCEEDING.
Following the important precautions below will help ensure you
many years of trouble free use from your CS1x.
ELECTRICAL INTERFERENCE
• Avoid using the CS1x near televisions, radios
or other devices which generate
electromagnetic fields, since this may cause
the CS1x to malfunction, and possibly
generate interference noise in the other
devices.
BACK-UP BATTERY
• The CS1x contains a special long-life battery
that retains the contents of its User memory
when the power is turned off. The back-up
battery should last for several years. When it
needs to be replaced, the message "Battery
Low" will appear in the display when the
power is turned on. When this happens, have
the backup battery replaced by qualified
Yamaha service personnel. Do not attempt
to replace the backup battery yourself.
HANDLING AND TRANSPORT
• Always handle the CS1x with care. Physical
shocks caused by dropping, bumping, or
placing heavy objects on it can result in
serious damage to the CS1x.
• Never apply excessive force to the controls,
connectors or other parts.
• Disconnect all cables before moving the
CS1x. Always unplug cables by gripping the
plug firmly, and not by pulling on the cable.
CLEANING
• Never use chemical solvents or thinners to
clean the CS1x, since these will damage the
finish or dull the keys. Wipe the instrument
clean with a soft, dry cloth. If necessary, use
a soft, clean cloth slightly moistened with a
