Connecting Headphones

IMPORTANT!
• Before connecting headphones, be sure to use the
Digital Piano's VOLUME controller to turn the
volume down to a low level. After connecting, you
can adjust the volume to the level you want.
• The Digital Piano automatically adjusts sound output
to optimize for headphones (when headphones are
connected) or the built-in speakers (when
headphones are not connected).
Back
PHONES jacks
Connect commercially available headphones to the
PHONES jacks. Connecting headphones to either of
the PHONES jacks cuts off output to the speakers,
which means you can practice even late at night
without bothering others. To protect your hearing,
make sure that you do not set the volume level too high
when using headphones.
NOTE
• Be sure to push the headphones plug into the
PHONES jacks as far as it will go. If you don't, you
may hear sound from only one side of the
headphones.
• If the plug of the headphones you are using does not
match the PHONES jacks, use the applicable
commercially available adaptor plug.
• If you are using headphones that require an adaptor
plug, make sure you do not leave the adaptor
plugged in when you unplug the headphones. If you
do, nothing will sound from the speakers when you
play.

Connecting a Pedal

The back of the Digital Piano has two pedal jacks, one
for a damper pedal and one for a soft/sostenuto pedal.
To connect to the pedal jack
Depending on the type of operation you want the
pedal (SP-3) to perform, connect the pedal's cable
either to the Digital Piano's DAMPER PEDAL jack or
SOFT/SOSTENUTO PEDAL jack. If you want to use
both operations (jacks) at the same time, you need to
purchase another optionally available pedal.

PEDAL jacks
NOTE
• You can connect a pedal to the SOFT/SOSTENUTO
PEDAL jack and apply either a soft or sostenuto
effect to the notes you play. For details, see "Soft/
Sostenuto Pedal Jack Setting" (page E-46).
Pedal Functions
Damper Pedal
Pressing the damper pedal while playing will cause the
notes you play to reverberate for a long time.
• Whenever a piano tone is selected, pressing this
pedal will activate the Digital Piano's Damper
Resonance effect, which causes notes to resonate in
the same way they do when the damper pedal on an
acoustic piano is pressed.
Soft Pedal
Pressing this pedal suppresses notes played on the
keyboard after the pedal was pressed, and makes them
sound softer.
Sostenuto Pedal
Only the notes that are played while this pedal are
depressed are sustained until the pedal is released.
