Getting Ready
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.
IMPORTANT!
• Never connect the AC adaptor (JEITA Standard,
with unified polarity plug) that comes with this Digital
Piano to any other device besides this 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.
1.
Press the P (Power) button to turn on Digital

Auto Power Off
This Digital Piano is designed to turn off automatically
to avoid wasting power after no operation is
performed for a preset amount of time. The Auto
Power Off trigger time is about four hours.
• You also can use the procedure below to temporarily
suspend Auto Power Off.
■ To disable Auto Power Off
1.
While the Digital Piano is turned on, press the

IMPORTANT!
• Whenever connecting something to the Digital
Piano, first use the VOLUME controller to set the
volume to a low level. After connecting, you can
adjust the volume to the level you want.
Connecting headphones to either of the PHONES jack
cuts off output to the speakers, which means you can
practice even late at night without bothering others. To
protect your hearing, make sure that you do not set the
volume level too high when using headphones.
NOTE
• Be sure to push the headphones plug into the
PHONES jacks as far as it will go. If you don’t, you
may hear sound from only one side of the
headphones.
• If the plug of the headphones you are using does not
match the PHONES jacks, use the applicable
commercially available adaptor plug.
• If you are using headphones that require an adaptor
plug, make sure you do not leave the adaptor
plugged in when you unplug the headphones. If you
do, nothing will sound from the speakers when you
play.

Getting Ready
You can connect audio equipment or a music amplifier
to the Digital Piano and then play through external
speakers for more powerful volume and better sound
quality.
Connecting Audio Equipment (Figure 1)
Use commercially available connecting cords
(Standard Plug × 1, Pin Plugs × 2) to connect as shown
in Figure 1. Make sure that the end of the cord that
you connect to the Digital Piano is a stereo standard
plug. A monaural standard plug will result in output of
only one of the two stereo channels. Normally, you
should set the input selector of the audio equipment to
the terminal where the Digital Piano is connected
(AUX IN, etc.) Adjust volume using the Digital Piano’s
VOLUME controller.
Connecting a Music Amplifier (Figure 2)
Connect the connecting cord* to one of the types of
amplifiers shown in Figure 2.
Adjust volume using the Digital Piano’s VOLUME
controller.
Use only accessories that are specified for use with this
Digital Piano.
Use of unauthorized accessories creates the risk of fire,
electric shock, and personal injury.

Playing with Different Tones
NOTE
• Of the Digital Piano’s 18 built-in tones, the first five
are grand piano tone. Each tone has its own
distinctive merits, so you should select the tone that
suits the song you are playing along with or your
own personal preferences. The CONCERT and
MODERN tones are assigned to buttons for quick
and easy selection.
* Feature that applies computer morphing
technology to enable seamless changes between
sounds sampled at various dynamics from a full
concert grand piano.
Bass Tone (BASS)
Selecting BASS (LOWER) tone in step 1 of the above
procedure will assign the selected bass tone to the low
range (left side) of the keyboard. The high range (right
side) will be assigned the tone that was selected when
you pressed the BASS (LOWER) key.
• BASS (LOWER) lets you effectively split the
keyboard between two different tones.
NOTE
• To return the keyboard to a single tone, select any
tone other than BASS (LOWER).
• You cannot select BASS (LOWER) when recording to
Track 2.
• You can configure settings to sustain reverberation
of the BASS (LOWER) tone while the damper pedal
or sostenuto pedal is pressed. For more information,
see “Bass damper effect” (page EN-28).
Tone Name Characteristics
CONCERT This is a full concert grand piano tone
that uses Linear Morphing* for
dynamic and natural tone changes.
This tone is designed to reproduce
damper, resonance, and other piano
nuances, which makes it ideal for
virtually any type of piano
performance.
MODERN This tone provides a bright grand piano
sound. The volume and timbre of this
tone is quick to respond to different
keyboard pressures, and it has
relatively deep reverb. This tone is a
good choice for dynamic and lively
performances.
CLASSIC This is a natural piano tone that closely
resembles the sound of an acoustic
piano. Though reverb and other flashy
effects are subdued for this tone,
resonance is more pronounced, which
enables expression of delicate nuances.
This tone is a good choice for lesson
and practice sessions.
MELLOW Warm and mellow piano tone
BRIGHT Bright and clear piano tone

Your Digital Piano comes equipped with three pedals:
damper, soft, and sostenuto.
Pedal Functions
z Damper Pedal
Pressing the damper pedal while playing will cause the
notes you play to reverberate for a long time.
• When a GRAND PIANO tone (CONCERT/
MODERN/CLASSIC/MELLOW/BRIGHT) is
selected as the tone, pressing this pedal will cause
notes to reverberate (with damper resonance) just
like the damper pedal on an acoustic grand piano.
Half-pedal operation (pressing the pedal part way)
is also supported.
z
Soft Pedal
Pressing this pedal while playing suppresses notes
played on the keyboard after the pedal was pressed,
and makes them sound softer.
z
Sostenuto Pedal
Only the notes of the keys that are depressed when this
pedal is pressed are sustained until the pedal is
released.
NOTE
• If pressing the pedal does not produce the desired
effect, it could mean that the pedal cord is not
connected properly. Refer to step 1 under “To

damper pedal.
This makes it possible to configure the keyboard so, for
example, the teacher can play on the left and the
student can follow along on the right. Or one person
can play the left hand part on the left, while another
plays the right hand part on the right.
