Power Supply
Prepare a household power outlet or batteries.
Be sure to comply with the “Safety
Precautions” provided in this manual.
Incorrect use of this product creates the risk
of electric shock and fire.
Always make sure that the Digital Keyboard
is turned off before plugging in or
unplugging the AC adaptor, or before loading
or removing batteries.
Make sure that you use only the AC adaptor
specified for this keyboard. Use of a different type
of AC adaptor can cause malfunction.
Specified AC Adaptor:
AD-E95100L (JEITA Standard plug)
The AC adaptor will become warm to the
touch after very long use. This is normal and
does not indicate malfunction.
To prevent breaking of the wire, take care to
avoid putting any type of load on the power
cord.
You can use six AA-size batteries for power.
Use alkaline or zinc-carbon batteries.
Never use oxyride or any other nickel based
batteries.
Open the battery cover on the bottom of the Digital
Keyboard, load the batteries, and then close the
cover.
Take care to ensure that the positive

Connections
Before connecting phones or other external
equipment, be sure to first turn down the volume
settings of the keyboard and the connected
equipment. You can then adjust volume to the
desired level after connections are complete.
[Rear Panel]
Connecting Phones (Figure
1
)
Connecting phones cuts off output from the
keyboard’s built-in speakers, so you can play even
late at night without disturbing anyone.
Audio Equipment (Figure
2
)
Connect the keyboard to an audio equipment using
a commercially available connecting cord with a
standard plug on one end and two PIN plugs on the
other end. In this configuration, you normally set
the input selector of the audio equipment to the
terminal (usually marked AUX IN or something
similar) where the cord from the keyboard is
connected. See the user documentation that comes
with your audio equipment for full details.
Musical Instrument Amplifier (Figure
3
)
Use a commercially available connecting cord* to
connect the keyboard to a musical instrument
amplifier.
* Be sure to use a connecting cord that has
standard plugs on the ends you connect to the
keyboard and amplifier.
When connected to a musical instrument amplifier,
set the volume of the keyboard to a relatively low
level and make output volume adjustments using
the amplifier’s controls.
[Connection Example]
Use only the accessories and options specified for
this keyboard. Use of non-authorized items creates
the danger of fire, electrical shock, and personal
injury.
You can get information about accessories that
are sold separately for this product from the

Basic Operations
This section provides information on performing
basic keyboard operations.
1.
Set the POWER/MODE switch to
NORMAL.
2.
Use the MAIN VOLUME buttons to
lower the keyboard volume.
It’s always a good idea to set the keyboard
volume at a relatively low level before
playing.
•Pressing [e] or [r] causes the current
volume setting to appear on the display.
Press [e] or [r] again to change the
setting.
3.
Play something on the keyboard.
This keyboard comes with 100 built-in tones. Use
the following procedure to select the tone you want
to use.
1.
Find the tone you want to use in the
tone list and note its tone number.
Not all of the available tones are shown on
the tone list printed on the keyboard
console. For a complete list, see the “Tone
List” on page A-1.
2.
Press the TONE button.
3.
Use the number buttons to input the
two digit tone number for the tone you
want to select.
Example: To select “26 WOOD BASS”, input 2
and then 6 .
Now notes played on the keyboard will be
played using an acoustical wood bass
sound.
Always input both digits for the tone number,
including a leading zero (if any). If you input one
digit and stop, the display will automatically clear
your input after a few seconds.
You can also increment the displayed tone
number by pressing [+] and decrement it by

Basic Operations
E-17
The following describes the two types of
combination tones that are available.
Layered Tones (Tone Numbers: 80 through 89)
Example: 80 STR PIANO
This tone layers a strings tone with a piano tone so
they both sound when a keyboard key is pressed.
Split Tones (Tone Numbers: 90 through 96)
Example: 90 BASS/PIANO
This tone splits the keyboard so one range is
assigned a bass tone and another range is
assigned a piano tone.
Percussion sounds
Example: 99 PERCUSSION
This tone assigns various percussion sounds to the
keyboard. See the “Percussion Instrument List” on
page A-7 for full details.
Sound Effect Tones
With sound effect tones 77 through 79, the type of
sound produced depends on the octave where the
key you press is located. When 78 PHONE is
selected available sound types are PUSH TONE 1,
PUSH TONE 2, RING 1, and RING 2.
The term polyphony refers to the maximum number
of notes you can play at the same time. The
keyboard has 12-note polyphony, which includes
the notes you play as well as the rhythms and auto-
accompaniment patterns that are played by the
keyboard. This means that when a rhythm or auto-
accompaniment pattern is being played by the
keyboard, the number of notes (polyphony)
available for keyboard play is reduced. Also note
that some of the tones offer only 6-note polyphony.
When rhythm or auto accompaniment is playing,
the number of sounds simultaneously played is
reduced.
A number of the tones that are available with this
keyboard have been recorded and processed using
a technique called digital sampling. To ensure a
high level of tonal quality, samples are taken in the
low, mid, and high ranges and then combined to
provide you with sounds that are amazingly close to
the originals. You may notice very slight differences
in volume or sound quality for some tones when
you play them at different positions on the
keyboard. This is an unavoidable result of multiple
sampling, and it is not a sign of malfunction.

Auto Accompaniment
This keyboard automatically plays bass and chord
parts in accordance with the chords you finger. The
bass and chord parts are played using sounds and
tones that are automatically selected to select the
rhythm you are using. All of this means that you get
full, realistic accompaniments for the melody notes
you play with your right hand, creating the mood of
a one-person ensemble.
This keyboard provides you with 100 exciting
rhythms that you can select using the following
procedure.
1.
Find the rhythm you want to use in the
rhythm list and note its rhythm
number.
Not all of the available rhythms are shown
on the rhythm list printed on the keyboard
console. For a complete list, see the
“Rhythm List” on page A-2.
2.
Press the RHYTHM button.
3.
Use the number buttons to input the
two digit rhythm number for the
rhythm you want to select.
Example: To select “64 WALTZ”, input 6 and
then 4.
“00 CLUB POP” is the initial default rhythm
setting whenever you turn on keyboard power.
You can also increment the displayed rhythm
number by pressing [+] and decrement it by
pressing [–].
