Getting Ready to Play
Your Digital Piano runs on standard household power. Be sure to turn off power whenever you are not using the Digital Piano.
Use only the AC adaptor (JEITA Standard, with unified polarity plug) that comes with this Digital Piano. Use of a different type of AC adaptor can cause malfunction of the Digital Piano. Specified AC Adaptor: AD-A12150LW
Use the supplied power cord to connect the AC adaptor as shown in the illustration below.
Note the following important precautions to avoid damage to the power cord.
During Use Never pull on the cord with excessive force. Never repeatedly pull on the cord. Never twist the cord at the base of the plug or connector.
During Movement Before moving the Digital Piano, be sure to unplug the AC
adaptor from the power outlet.
During Storage Loop and bundle the power cord, but never wind it around
the AC adaptor.
Never connect the AC adaptor (JEITA Standard, with unified polarity plug) that comes with this Digital Piano to any other device besides this Digital Piano. Doing so creates the risk of malfunction.
Make sure the Digital Piano is turned off before plugging in or unplugging the AC adaptor.
The AC adaptor will become warm to the touch after very long use. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.

Playing the Digital Piano
1. Press 2 (P). This turns on power. To turn off the Digital Piano, press 2 again.
2. Try playing something on the keyboard. Use 1 to adjust volume.
If you press 2 only lightly, the display will light up momentarily but power will not turn on. This does not indicate malfunction. Press 2 firmly and completely to turn on power.
Turning off the Digital Piano causes most current settings to be cleared. The Digital Piano will revert to initial settings the next time you turn it on. This is true for all settings except for sample sound protection. Once you turn it on it remains on until you turn it off again.
The message Pls wait will remain on the display while a data save operation is in progress. Do not perform any other operation while it is displayed. Turning off the Digital Piano or removing the memory card can cause Digital Piano data to be deleted or become corrupted.
Pressing 2 to turn off power actually puts the Digital Piano into a standby state. Minute amounts of current continue to flow within the Digital Piano in the standby state. If you do not plan to use the Digital Piano for a long time or if there is a lightning storm in your area, be sure to unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet.
If you do not perform any operation for 30 minutes, the Digital Piano will turn off automatically.
Disabling Auto Power Off You can disable Auto Power Off to ensure that power is not turned off automatically during a concert, etc.
1. While holding down bp (TONE), turn on power. Auto Power Off will be disabled.
Using headphones cuts off output from the built-in speakers, which means you can practice playing even late at night without disturbing others. Be sure to turn down the volume level before connecting
headphones.
Headphones do not come with the Digital Piano. Use commercially available headphones. See page EN-3
for information about options.
Do not listen to very high volume output over headphones for long period. Doing so creates the risk of hearing damage.
If you are using headphones that require an adaptor plug, make sure you do not leave the adaptor plugged in when removing the headphones.

Sampling Sounds and Playing Them on the Digital Piano
You can use the Digital Piano to sample a sound from a microphone, and then play the sound with keyboard keys. For example, you could sample the bark of your dog and then use the sound in a melody. The sampling feature is a great way to create new sounds that are highly creative.
Turn off the microphone and the Digital Piano before connecting them.
1. Connect a microphone.
Use a commercially available dynamic microphone. You cannot sample sounds input from through the AUDIO
IN jack.
2. Turn the volume levels of the Digital Piano down.
3. Turn on the microphone and then the Digital Piano.
4. Use em (MIC VOLUME) to adjust the volume level of microphone input.
It will take a few seconds after you turn on the Digital Piano before you will be able to use the microphone.
Sampled sounds are recorded in monaural.

Using Built-in Songs to Master Keyboard Play
To master a song, it is best to break it up into shorter parts (phrases), master the phrases, and then put everything together. Your Digital Piano comes with a Step Up Lesson feature that helps you to do just that.
The built-in songs are pre-divided into phrases to help you master keyboard play.
Step Up Lesson takes you through practice of the right hand part, left hand part, and both hand parts for each phrase of a song. Master all of the phrases and you master the song.

Using a Memory Card
You can save Digital Piano user area data to a memory card and load data from a memory card to Digital Piano memory. You also can play music files (MIDI files) stored on a memory card on the Digital Piano.
Use an SD memory card or an SDHC memory card with a capacity of 32GB or less. Use of a memory card with a capacity that is greater than 32GB and other types of memory cards is not supported.
SDHC Logo is a trademark of SD-3C, LLC.
User data that can be saved and loaded
Use only memory cards. Operation is not guaranteed when any other type of memory card is used.
When using a memory card, make sure you observe all of the precautions in the instructions that come with it.
Memory cards have a write-protect switch that you can use to protect against accidental deletion of data.
Avoid using a memory card under the following conditions. Such conditions can corrupt data stored on the memory card. Areas subjected to high temperature, high humidity,
and corrosive gas Areas subjected to strong electrostatic charge and
digital noise Never touch the contacts of a memory card when
loading it or removing it from the Digital Piano. While data is being stored to or recalled from a memory
card, never perform any other Digital Piano operation or remove the memory card. Doing so can corrupt the data on the card and damage the card slot.
Never insert anything besides a memory card into the card slot. Doing so creates the risk of malfunction.
Electrostatic charge discharging from your fingers or the memory card to the card slot can cause malfunction of the Digital Piano. If this happens, turn the Digital Piano off and then back on again.
A memory card can become quite warm after very long use in the memory card slot. This is normal and does not indicate malfunction.

In addition to the chords that can be fingered with Fingered 1 and Fingered 2, the following chords also are recognized.
With Fingered 3, the lowest note fingered is interpreted as the base note. Inverted forms are not supported.
With Full Range Chord, when the lowest note fingered is a certain distance from the neighboring note, the chord is interpreted as a fraction chord.
Unlike Fingered 1, 2, and 3, Full Range Chord requires pressing of at least three keys to form a chord.
