Adjusting the Volume

In normal mode, the volume of the piano could be
adjusted only down to the softest level that the
acoustic piano can play.
In Silent or Quiet mode, you can adjust the
volume of the digital piano as desired, to a level
softer than what is possible on the acoustic piano.
Volume is adjusted using the VOLUME knob on
the Silent Control Box. The standard volume
level is roughly the three o'clock position. At this
setting, the volume level of the digital piano is
approximately the same as what the acoustic
piano would be in normal mode.
Turn the knob clockwise to increase and
counterclockwise to decrease the volume.
Turning the knob fully counterclockwise mutes
the sound of the digital piano.

ON
Note: You can also adjust the volume on the Control
Unit to a certain extent within the normal
volume range of the piano.
Note: Make sure the VOLUME knob on the
Amplifier is set to a level at which sound is
produced. If the volume knob on the
Amplifier is turned fully counterclockwise, no
sound may be produced even when you use
the VOLUME knob on the Silent Control Box
to adjust volume
