4.Plug the AC cord into a power outlet.

As necessary, cramp the AC adaptor cord with the cord cramps (p. 7).

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.

Connecting Pedals

Soft Pedal Damper Pedal

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.

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.

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-100 must be turned off before inserting or removing a pedal cord.
