Adjusting the volume

Rotate the MASTER VOLUME knob towards the right to in- crease the volume; towards the left to decrease the volume. The maximum value is “10”; the minimum (silence) is “0”. This control adjusts the output level of the headphones, the internal speakers and of the OUTPUTs.

It does not control the volume of an audio device connected to the INPUT connectors. Use the audio device’s own controls to set its volume.

It is always better to start with a low volume and then increase gradually.

Using the headphones

For playing or practicing during night hours, or when you don’t want to be heard by others in the same room, connect one or two pairs of high-quality headphones (32Ω impedance suggested) to the appropriate PHONES connectors. These connectors are standard 1/4” phone jacks. If your headphones

have a mini-jack adapter, grasp the adapter when plugging in or out the headphones.

Warning: When using headphones, protect your hearing by avoiding extended listening at high volumes.

Note: When not using them, you can append your headpho- hones to the dedicated hook under the piano.
