Before You Play

Connecting the AC Adaptor

NOTE

To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power on all devices before making any connections.

1.Connect the supplied AC adaptor and AC cord.

AC adaptor

2.Connect the AC adaptor to the DC In connector on the rear panel.

3.As shown in the diagram, loop the AC adaptor cord around the cord stay to fasten it in place.

Rear

DC In 9 V

4.Plug the AC cord into a power outlet.

NOTE

To prevent the inadvertent disruption of power to your unit (should the plug be pulled out accidentally), to avoid applying undue stress to the DC In connector, anchor the power cord using the cord hook, as shown in the diagram.

Even if the cord is fastened, strong tension applied to the cord may cause it to be damaged or broken. Be careful not to pull the cord accidentally, or to apply strong pressure to it.

Installing the Music Stand

1.Assemble the music stand as shown in the diagram.

NOTE

When moving the piano, be sure to remove the music stand as a safety precaution.

Connecting Pedals

1.Connect the supplied pedals to one of the pedal jacks.

Damper Soft

Pedal

Pedal switch (DP Series)

When connected to the Damper jack, the pedal can be used as a damper pedal.

When connected to Soft, the pedal can be used as a soft pedal.

NOTE

Unplugging a pedal cord from the unit while the power is on may cause the pedal’s effect to be applied without stopping. The power of the F-90 must be turned off before inserting or removing a pedal cord.

Damper Pedal

Use this pedal to sustain the sound.

While the pedal is depressed, long lingering reverberations continue to be added to the sound after you release from the keys. This is the same function as the right pedal of an acoustic piano.

Soft Pedal

This pedal is used to make the sound softer.

Playing with the soft pedal depressed produces a sound that is not as strong as when otherwise played with the equivalent strength. This is the same function as the left pedal of an acoustic piano.

Some tones are affected less than others.

NOTE

By obtaining a second pedal, you can then use two pedals simultaneously. If you wish to purchase the optional pedal (DP Series), please contact the dealer where you purchased the F-90.
