GENERAL PRECAUTIONS
HANDLING CAUTION
• Take care that the key cover does not pinch
your fingers, and do not insert a finger or hand
in any gaps on the key cover or instrument.
• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other
objects into the gaps on the key cover, panel
or keyboard. If this happens, turn off the power
immediately and unplug the power cord from
the AC outlet. Then have the instrument
inspected by qualified Suzuki service person-
nel.
• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on
the instrument, since this might discolor the
panel or keyboard.
• Bumping the surface of the instrument with
metal, porcelain, or other hard objects can
cause the finish to crack or peel. Use caution.
• Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy
objects on the instrument, and do not use
excessive force on the buttons, switches or
connectors.
• Do not operate the instrument for a long period
of time at a high or uncomfortable volume
level, since this can cause permanent hearing
loss. If you experience any hearing loss or
ringing in the ears, consult a physician.
HANDLING AND TRANSPORT
Never apply excessive force to the controls,
connectors or other parts of the instrument.
Always unplug cables by gripping the plug
firmly, not by pulling on the cable.
Disconnect all cables before moving the
instrument.
Physical shocks caused by dropping, bump-
ing, or placing heavy objects on the instru-
ment can result in scratches and/or more
serious damage.
Carefully check the amplifier volume control
before starting to play. Excessive volume can
cause permanent hearing loss.

LOCATION
Do not expose the instrument to the following
conditions to avoid deformation, discoloration, or more
serious damage:
•
direct sunlight (near a window),
•
high temperatures (near a heat source, outside, or
near a window),
•
excessive humidity,
•
excessive dust, or
•
strong vibration.
Leave enough space around the piano for it to be
properly ventilated.
This instrument contains digital circuitry and may
cause interference if placed too close to radio or
television receivers. If interference occurs, move the
instrument further away from the affected equipment.
Avoid placing vinyl objects on top of the instrument,
vinyl can stick to and discolor the surface.
USING THE BENCH
Do not place the bench in an unstable position where
it might accidentally fall over.
Do not play carelessly with, or stand on the bench.
Using it as a tool or stepladder might result in
accident or injury.
Only one person should sit on the bench at a time, in
order to prevent the possibility of accident or injury.
Do not attempt to adjust the bench height while sitting
on the bench, since this can cause excessive force to
be imposed on the adjustment mechanism, possibly
resulting in damage to the mechanism or even injury.
If the bench screws become loose due to extensive
long-term use, tighten them.
CLEANING
Clean the cabinet and panel with a soft nonabrasive
dry cloth. This cloth should be for High Gloss Lacquer
Finish Furniture. A polish specifically for High Gloss
Lacquer Finish Furniture may be used on the cabinet.
Do not use paint thinner or petrochemical based
polishes.
To maintain the luster of the keys and buttons wipe
with a clean, slightly damp cloth, and then polish with
a soft dry cloth.
