Setting Up
Make sure to properly connect all external devices you are using (as shown below)
BEFORE turning the power on.
Connecting Headphones or an Audio
Device (PHONES/OUTPUT Jack)
A pair of stereo headphones with a 1/4" stereo phone
plug can be plugged in the PHONES/OUTPUT jack
for convenient monitoring. The speakers are automati-
cally shut off when a plug is inserted into this jack.
The PHONES/OUTPUT jack also functions as an
external output. You can connect the PHONES/OUT-
PUT jack to a keyboard amplifier, stereo system,
mixer, tape recorder, or other line-level audio device
to send the instrument's output signal to that device.
CAUTION
• Avoid listening with the headphones at high volume for
long periods of time; doing so may not only result in ear
fatigue, it may be damaging to your hearing.
CAUTION
• To prevent damage to the speakers, set the volume of the
external devices at the minimum setting before connecting
them. Failure to observe these cautions may result in elec-
tric shock or equipment damage. Also, be sure to set the
volumes of all devices at their minimum levels and gradu-
ally raise the volume controls while playing the instrument
to set the desired listening level.
Connecting a Footswitch or a Foot
Pedal (SUSTAIN Jack)
The SUSTAIN jack is for connecting the Footswitch or
foot pedal. The pedal functions in the same way as a
damper pedal on an acoustic piano. Connect an optional
footswitch FC4/FC5 to this jack and press the pedal to
sustain the sound. An optional FC3 Foot Pedal can also
be connected to this jack. If you connect an optional
FC3 Foot Pedal, the half pedal function* can be used.
* Half pedal function
If you are playing the piano with sustain but want to make the sound
between notes clearer, slightly release your foot from the pedal,
keeping the pedal down in half position or less.

flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you
are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you
unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet, and/
or remove the batteries from the instrument.
NOTE
• All panel settings are reset to the default values whenever the power is

instrument features an Auto Power Off function that
