NOTICE
To avoid the possibility of malfunction/ damage to the product,
damage to data, or damage to other property, follow the notices
below.
Handling
• Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio,
stereo equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices.
Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may generate noise.
When you use the instrument along with an application on
your iPad, iPhone or iPod touch, we recommend that you set
“Airplane Mode” to “ON” on that device in order to avoid
noise caused by communication.
• Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or
vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct
sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent
the possibility of panel disfiguration, damage to the internal
components or unstable operation. (Verified operating
temperature range: 5° – 40°C, or 41° – 104°F.)
• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the
instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.
Maintenance
• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft and dry/slightly
damp cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, alcohol,
cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
• During extreme changes in temperature or humidity,
condensation may occur and water may collect on the
surface of the instrument. If water is left, the wooden parts
may absorb the water and be damaged. Make sure to wipe
any water off immediately with a soft cloth.
• As with an acoustic piano, pedals may become tarnished
across the ages. When this occurs, polish the pedal with a
compound designed for piano pedals. Before using the
compound, make sure to read the instructions for proper
usage.
Saving data
• Some of the data of this instrument (page 28) are retained
when the power is turned off. However, the saved data may
be lost due to some failure, an operation mistake, etc. Save
your important data onto an external device such as a
computer (page 28).
