Connecting Headphones (Figure 1)

Connecting headphones 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.

NOTE

Be sure to use a connecting cord that has standard plugs on the ends you connect to the keyboard and amplifier.

SUSTAIN jack

Sustain Pedal

With piano tones, depressing the pedal causes notes to linger, much like a piano’s damper pedal.

With organ tones, depressing the pedal causes notes to continue to sound until the pedal is released.

Using the Microphone Jack

Connecting a microphone (not supplied, available at your local RadioShack store) to the MIC jack makes it possible to sing along with the keyboard’s built-in tunes or with output from a MIDI device. When connecting a microphone, be sure to first adjust the MIC VOLUME to a relatively low setting, and then adjust to the level you want after connecting.

1. Set the MIC VOLUME knob setting so it is on the ÒMINÓ side.

2. Turn on the microphoneÕs ON/OFF switch.

3. Use the MIC VOLUME knob to adjust

microphone volume to the level you want.
