Getting Ready to Play

Preparing a Power Supply

Though either an AC adaptor or batteries can be used for power, use of AC adaptor power is normally recommended.

Using the AC Adaptor

Use only the AC adaptor (JEITA Standard with unified polarity plug) specified for this Digital Keyboard.
Use of a different type of AC adaptor can cause malfunction.

AC Adaptor Type: AD-E95100L
(JEITA Standard plug)

Preparing a Power Supply - Step 1

  • Be sure to turn off Digital Keyboard power before connecting or disconnecting the AC adaptor.
  • The AC adaptor becomes warm to the touch after very long use. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.
  • To prevent breaking of the wire, take care to avoid putting any type of load on the power cord.
    Preparing a Power Supply - Step 2
  • Never insert metal, pencils, or any other objects into the DC 9.5V terminal. Doing so creates the risk of accident.

Using Batteries for Power

  • Be sure to turn off power before loading batteries.
  • Use commercially available AA-size alkaline batteries or AA-size rechargeable nickel metal hydride batteries.
  • Low battery power can cause abnormal operation. If this happens, replace batteries with new ones. If you are using rechargeable batteries, charge them.
Batteries

warning Note the precautions below when using rechargeable batteries.

  • Use Panasonic Group AA-size eneloop rechargeable batteries.
    Do not use any other type of batteries.
  • Use only the specified charger to charge batteries.
  • Rechargeable batteries must be removed from the product for charging.
  • For information about using eneloop batteries or their specified charger, be sure to read the user documentation and precautions that come with each item, and use them only as directed.

Be sure to replace batteries at least once a year, even if there is no indication of low battery power. Dead rechargeable batteries (eneloop) in particular may deteriorate if they are left in the product. Remove rechargeable batteries from the product as soon as possible after they go dead.

  1. Open the battery cover on the back of the Digital Keyboard.
    Preparing a Power Supply - Batteries - Step 1
  2. Load six AA-size batteries into the battery compartment.
    Load batteries with their positive (+) and negative (–) ends facing correctly.
    Preparing a Power Supply - Batteries - Step 2
  3. Insert the tabs of the battery cover into the holes, and close the cover.
    • Configure the setting below to specify the type of batteries you loaded.

  • You can conserve battery power by using headphones and by reducing the volume level.

Preparing the Music Stand

Insert the music stand into the handle of the Digital Keyboard.

Connecting Headphones (Sold Separately)

Plugging in headphones cuts off output from the built-in speakers, which means you can practice playing even late at night without disturbing others.

  • Be sure to turn down the Digital Keyboard volume level before connecting headphones.
    Connecting Headphones

warning NOTE:

  • Headphones do not come with the Digital Keyboard.
  • Use separately sold or commercially available headphones.

  • Do not listen to output over headphones at very high volume levels for long periods. Doing so creates the risk of hearing damage.
  • If the plug of the headphones does not match the PHONES/OUTPUT jack, use a commercially available adapter plug.
  • If you are using headphones that require an adapter plug, make sure you do not leave the adapter plugged in when removing the headphones.
