Plug the headphones into the PHONES jack.
You can use two sets of headphones simultaneously.
3
Adjust the volume with the VOLUME knob.
To set the appropriate volume, adjust it while playing the keyboard
and listening to the sound.
Caution
• To prevent damage to your hearing, refrain from raising the volume to excessive levels, and do not use the headphones for
extended periods of time.
• Do not pull the headphone cord or apply excessive force on the plug. This can damage the headphone and lead to sound
output malfunction.
Note
• The keying sound of the keyboard remains even though the Silent Piano™ function is activated.
• Adjusting the volume with the VOLUME knob affects the output level of headphones, the OUTPUT jacks (only for grand piano),
and the AUX OUT jack.
