•Never locate the instrument in areas sub- ject to grease splatters or steam, such as in a kitchen or near a humidifier. Doing so may cause fire or electrical shock.

Do not place keyboard on lacquered furniture.

•The instrument’s silicone rubber feet may eventually blacken or scar lacquered sur- faces. Use felt cloth pads to insulate the feet or preferably use a CASIO musical instru- ment stand designed for your keyboard.

Do not place heavy objects on the instrument.

•Do not place heavy objects on the instru- ment. This may cause the instrument to tip over or break resulting in injury.

Volume

•Very high volume levels can damage hear- ing. Avoid using the instrument at very high volume settings for long periods. Consult with a physician immediately if you experience impaired hearing or ringing in the ears.

Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) Precautions

•Avoid subjecting the keyboard's LCD to strong impact, which can crack or break the LCD's glass creating the danger of per- sonal injury.

•Should the LCD glass ever crack or break, do not allow the liquid inside the LCD to come into contact with your skin, which can cause inflammation and reddening.

*Should the LCD liquid get into your mouth, immediately wash out your mouth with water and then consult a physician.

*Should the LCD liquid get in your eyes or on your skin, immediately flush with wa- ter for at least 15 minutes and then consult a physician.

Do not get onto the instrument or stand.*

•Do not crawl on top of the instrument or its optional stand. Particular caution is re- quired in homes having small children. This may cause the instrument or stand to tip over and break resulting in injury.

Optional Stand*

•Carefully assemble the stand following the assembly instructions that come with it. Se- curely tighten all bolts, nuts, and fasteners, and make sure that you mount the instru- ment correctly onto the stand. Incorrectly or insufficiently tightening screws, or in- correctly mounting the instrument onto the stand can cause the stand to tip over or the instrument to fall off the stand, possibly leading to injury.

*The stand is available as an option.

Care of your keyboard

Avoid strong impact and rough handling.

Your keyboard is made of precision components that can malfunction when subjected to strong impact and rough handling.

Avoid heat, humidity or direct sunlight.

Do not overexpose the instrument to direct sunlight, or place it near an air conditioner, or in any extremely hot place.

Do not use near a TV or radio.

This instrument can cause video or audio interference with TV and radio reception. If this happens, move the instrument away from the TV or radio.

Do not use lacquer, thinner or similar chemicals for cleaning.

Clean the keyboard with a soft cloth dampened in a weak solution of water and a neutral detergent. Soak the cloth in the solution and squeeze until it is almost dry.

Avoid use in areas subjected to temperature extremes.

Extremely high or low temperature can cause figures on the LCD screen to become dim and difficult to read. This condition should correct itself when the keyboard is brought back to normal tempera- ture.

Lithium Battery Precautions

The keyboard comes with a built-in lithium battery that supplies power to the memory to retain Song Sequencer, Pattern Sequencer and other data while keyboard power is turned off. If the power of the lithium battery is low, turning off keyboard power can result in deletion of all data stored in its memory.

The normal life of the original battery is five years from the time it is loaded at the factory. Due to time spent in transit and storage, the original battery probably will not provide a full five years of service life. It is up to you to contact your nearest CASIO service provider about having the lithium battery replaced periodically.

*CASIO COMPUTER CO., LTD. shall not be held responsible for any losses to you or any third party due to loss or corruption of data caused by malfunction or repair of this keyboard, or by bat- tery replacement.

❚ NOTE ❚

You may notice lines in the finish of the case of this keyboard. These lines are a result of the molding process used to shape the plastic of the case. They are not cracks or breaks in the plastic, and are no cause for concern.
