Location

Avoid locating the piano in the following types of areas. Subjecting the piano to the conditions described below creates the risk of fire and electric shock.

Areas expose to high humidity or large amounts of dust

Near food preparation areas and other areas where it is exposed to oil smoke

Near a heater, on a heated carpet, in direct sunlight, inside a closed automobile parked in the sun, and any other area subjected to very high temperature

Never place the piano directly onto furniture or other item that has a finished surface. The rubber feet on the bottom of the piano can react with the paint or other coatings, resulting in soiling of or damage to the finished surface. Be sure to lay felt or some other material on the finished surface before placing the piano on it.

Do not place heavy objects on the piano. Never place heavy objects on top of the piano. Doing so can cause the stand to tip over and the object to fall, creating the risk of personal injury.

Volume setting

Do not play at very loud volumes for a long time. This precaution is especially important when using the headphones. Long-term exposure to very loud sound can damage your hearing.

Assemble the stand properly.

Failure to do so can cause the stand to fall over and the piano to fall from the stand, creating the risk of personal injury.

Make sure your assemble the stand in accordance with the instructions that come with it, and ensure that all connections are secure. Also make sure that you choose an appropriate location for the stand.

When placing the piano onto the stand, take care that you do not pinch your fingers between the piano and the stand.

At least two people should lift the piano when placing it onto the stand or moving it. Trying to

move the piano alone can cause the stand to fall over, creating the risk of personal injury.

Do not drag the stand or tilt it forward or back when placing the piano onto the stand or moving it. Doing so can cause the piano to fall over, creating the risk of personal injury.

Periodically check the screws that secure the piano to the stand for looseness. If a screw is loose, retighten it. Loose screws can cause the stand to tip over and the piano to fall, creating the risk of personal injury.
