Turning On the Power

1
Before turning on the Fantom's power, consider these two questions:
• Are all peripheral devices connected correctly?
• Have the volume controls of the Fantom and all connected audio devices been
turned to their lowest settings?
2
Turn on the POWER ON switch located on the rear panel of the
Fantom.

When you turn on the power, the display backlight lights, and the BEAT indicator
blinks in time with the tempo ( =**). If the Backlight Saver function is turned on, the
display backlight may turn off. Should this occur, the BEAT indicator will light in
orange to indicate that the power's on.
3
Turn on the power for any connected amplifiers or speakers.
4
Play the Fantom's keyboard, gradually increasing the setting of its
volume control, and then carefully raise the volume of your connected
amplifiers or speakers to the desired listening level.

Once the connections have
been completed (p. 3), turn on
power to your various devices
in the order specified. By
turning on devices in the
wrong order, you risk causing
malfunction and/or damage to
speakers and other devices.
To ensure proper operation of
the pitch bend lever, make
sure not to touch the lever
when turning the Fantom's
power on.
This unit is equipped with a
protection circuit. A brief
interval (a few seconds) after
power up is required before
the unit will operate normally.
Be careful not to set your
listening volume too high to
avoid damage to your amp/
speaker system or your
hearing.
