Yamaha products are manufac-
tured specifically for the supply
voltage in the area where they are to be sold.
If you should move, or if any doubt exists
about the supply voltage, please consult with
a qualified technician.
Turning the Electone off erases all
panel settings you have made.
When the Electone is turned on, Basic Reg-
istration 1 is automatically selected.
