Before connecting phones or other external equipment, be sure
to first turn down the volume settings of the keyboard and the
connected equipment. You can then adjust volume to the de-
sired level after connections are complete.

Connecting Phones (Figure @)
Connecting phones cuts off output from the keyboard's built-in
speakers, so you can play even late at night without disturbing
anyone.

Audio Equipment (Figure @)
Connect the keyboard to a audio equipment using a commer-
cially available connecting cord with a standard plug on one end
and two PIN plugs on the other end. Note that the standard plug
you connect to the keyboard must be a stereo plug, otherwise
you will be able to output only one of stereo channels. In this
configuration, you normally set the input selector of the audio
equipment to the terminal (usually marked AUX IN or some-
thing similar) where the cord from the keyboard is connected.
See the user documentation that comes with your audio equip-
ment for full details.
Musical Instrument Amplifier (Figure @)
Use a commercially available connecting cord to connect the key-
board to a musical instrument amplifier.
aNOTE!
Be sure to use a connecting cord that has a stereo standard plug on
the end you connect to the keyboard, and a connector that provides
dual channel (ieft and right) input to the amplifier to which you are
connecting. The wrong type of connector at either end can cause
one of the stereo channeis to be fost.
When connected to a musical instrument amplifier, set the vol-
ume of the keyboard to a relatively low level and make output
volume adjustments using the amplifier's controls.

Sustain Pedal
* With piano tones, depressing the pedal causes notes to linger,
much like a piano's damper pedal.
* With organ tones, depressing the pedal causes notes to contin-
ue to sound until the pedal is released.
Sostenuto Pedal
* As with the sustain pedal function described above, depress-
ing the sostenuto pedal causes notes to be sustained.
* This difference between a sostenuto pedal and sustain pedal
is the timing. With a sostenuto pedal, you press the keys and
then depress the pedal before you release the keys. Only the
notes that are sounding when the pedal is depressed are sus-
tained.
Soft Pedal
Depressing the pedal softens the sound of the notes being played.
Rhythm Start/Stop Pedal
In this case, the pedal performs the same functions as the START/
STOP button.
