AboutthisOwner’sManual
Before attempting to play the CE220 digital piano, please read the Preparation Before Use section from page 10 of this owner’s
manual. This section explains the name and function of each part, how to connect the power cable, and how to turn on the power.
The Basic Operations section (page 14) provides an overview of the instrument’s most commonly used functions, such as selecting
and combining sounds, and splitting the keyboard into separate sections. This chapter also explains how to apply reverb and eects
to sounds, and how the voicing controls can be used to adjust the character of the piano sounds.
The Recorder section (page 26) provides instructions on how to record and play back pieces stored in the instrument’s internal
memory, while the USB Functions section (page 30) explains how recorded performances can be loaded from and saved to USB
ash memory devices.
The Function Buttons chapter (page 36) details the CE220 digital piano’s various keyboard, sound, and pedal settings, in addition to
explaining the instrument’s useful MIDI capabilities.
Finally, the Appendix section (page 60) includes lists for all internal sounds, songs, and drum rhythms, assembly instructions,
troubleshooting recommendations, MIDI reference information, and full specication details.
CE220 Feature Highlights
AWA Grand Pro II wooden-key keyboard action
The CE220 digital piano utilises the critically acclaimed AWA Grand Pro II keyboard action, employing longer, real wooden
keys for an unsurpassed acoustic piano feel. Authentic key balance points, action movement and contact placements
combine with proper hammer grading and bass key counter-weights to replicate the exceptional touch of the world-
renowned Kawai EX Concert Grand Piano. Such meticulous attention to detail provides incredible stability during fortissimo
passages, while preserving delicate pianissimo control, to satisfy the demands of even the most discerning pianist.
Progressive Harmonic Imaging™ (PHI) sound technology, 88-key piano sampling
The CE220 digital piano captures the beautiful sound of Kawai’s highly acclaimed hand-built concert grand piano, with
all 88 keys of this exceptional instrument meticulously recorded, analysed and faithfully reproduced using proprietary
Progressive Harmonic Imaging™ technology. This unique process accurately recreates the broad dynamic range of the
original grand piano, aording pianists an extraordinary level of expressiveness ranging from the softest pianissimo to the
strongest, boldest fortissimo.
Additional reverberation eects that simulate the acoustic environment of a recital room, stage, or concert hall are also
applied, resulting in a rich, vibrant piano tone that delivers breathtaking realism and authenticity, while the unique Voicing
function allows players to adjust the tonal character of the piano beneath their ngertips.
Excellent selection of additional instrument sounds
Supplementing the realistic acoustic piano voices, the CE220 digital piano also features an excellent selection of additional
instrument sounds, ranging from electric pianos and drawbar and church organs, to strings, brass, and woodwind
instruments, inviting musicians to add greater variety to their performances.
Furthermore, the Dual playing mode also allows two dierent sounds, such as grand piano and strings, to be layered
together, while the Split and Four Hands modes divide the keyboard into two independent sections. The volume balances
for each playing mode can also be adjusted quickly and easily using the real-time balance slider.
Wide range of connectivity options
The CE220 digital piano features a variety of standard connectivity options, with LINE-level audio jacks that allow the
instrument to be enjoyed in larger settings such as churches and schools. Standard MIDI and USB to Host connectors
provide exibility when using computers and other audio devices, while the USB to Device port allows musicians to save
recorded performances to USB ash memory devices. It is even possible to playback Standard MIDI File (SMF) songs stored
on USB memory directly, without the need for additional equipment.

Preparation Before Use
Setting Up the Piano
1.
Connecting the power cable to the instrument
Connect the included power cable to the ‘AC IN’ inlet located on
the underside of instrument.
2. Connecting the power cable to an outlet
Connect the instrument’s power cable to an AC outlet.
3. Turningonthepower
Press the POWER SWITCH located on the right hand side of the
front panel.
The instrument will turn on. The LED indicator for the PIANO
button will also turn on, indicating that the Concert Grand sound
is selected, and the CE220 digital piano is ready to be played.
4. Adjusting the volume

instrument’s speakers, or headphones if connected.
Move the slider to the right to increase the volume, and to the
left to decrease the volume.
Decrease
volume
Increase
volume
Use this slider to set the volume to a comfortable listening level
- the middle is often a good starting point.
Using headphones
Use the jacks located beneath the keyboard on the left hand side,
to connect stereo headphones to the CE220 digital piano.
Two pairs of headphones can be connected and used
simultaneously. When a pair of headphones is connected,
sound will not be produced by the speakers.
Attaching the headphone hook (optional)
A headphone hook is included with the CE220 digital piano and
can be used to hang headphones when not in use.
If desired, attach the headphone hook to the underside of the
keyboard as shown in the illustration below.

Preparation Before Use
Using the Pedals
Soft pedal
Sostenuto pedal
Sustain pedal
Soft pedal (left pedal)
Depressing this pedal softens the sound, reducing its volume.
When the rotary speaker eect is selected, the soft pedal is also
used to alternate the speed of the rotary simulation between
'Slow' and 'Fast' eect modes.
Sostenuto pedal (centre pedal)
Depressing this pedal after playing the keyboard and before
releasing the keys, sustains the sound of only those notes that
have been played. Any keys that are subsequently played after
the sostenuto pedal is depressed will not be sustained.
Pedal support bolt
A pedal support bolt is attached at the base of the pedal board
to aid stability when the pedals are pushed.
Turn the bolt anti-clockwise until it makes contact with the oor
and supports the pedals rmly. If the pedal support bolt does
not make contact with the oor, the pedal board may become
damaged.
When moving the instrument, always adjust or
remove the pedal support bolt, then readjust

Caring for the pedals
If the surface of the pedals becomes dirty, clean the pedals using a dry dish-washing sponge.
Do not attempt to clean the pedals using rust-removing solvents, abrasives or les.
Sustain pedal (right pedal)
Depressing this pedal sustains the sound after one’s hands have
been lifted from the keyboard - greatly enriching the piano
sound, while also assisting smooth ‘legato’ passages.
The sustain pedal is capable of responding to half pedaling.
