Getting Ready to Play
Preparing the Music Stand
Power Supply
Your Digital Piano runs on standard household power. Be
sure to turn off power whenever you are not using the Digital
Piano.
Music stand
Using the AC Adaptor
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
Connecting a Pedal Unit
• Use the supplied power cord to connect the AC adaptor as
shown in the illustration below.
Household power outlet
AC adaptor
DAMPER PEDAL jack
DC 12V terminal
Power cord
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.
