4. Adjust the volume
Raise the [MASTER VOLUME] slider to ap-
proximately the middle position.
Moving the slider toward the right will in-
crease the volume. Moving it toward the left
will decrease the volume. With a setting of "0"
there will be no sound. Adjust an appropriate
volume while actually playing the instrument.
The [MASTER VOLUME] slider controls the
volume that is output from the built-in speak-
ers, the headphone jack, and the rear panel
OUTPUT jacks.
■ When using headphones
When headphones are plugged in, no sound
will be heard from the built-in speakers.
Use headphones when you do not wish to
disturb those around you, such as at night.
Since there are two headphone jacks, you can
enjoy playing duets.
Connect the plug (phone plug) of your stereo
headphones to the headphone jack located at
the left on the bottom of the instrument.
If you are using head-
phones that have a
mini→phone converter
plug, grasp the base of
the converter plug when
connecting or disconnect-
ing the headphones.
When using headphones, do not listen to high
volumes for extended periods of time, since this
may damage your hearing.
■ When using the Music Stand
To prop up the music stand, pull out the flaps
and fit them into the base, forming a triangle.
