Troubleshooting

If you encounter problems with the C-190, please read the following before assuming that there is a malfunc- tion.

The C-190 cannot be switched on

Is the adapter connected properly (page 9)?

No sound is produced

Is the [VOLUME] slider set to the minimum position (page 9)?

Are headphones connected? Disconnect them (page 9).

Cannot hear the PEDAL sound

Is the [PEDAL] slider set to the minimum position (page 9)?

Does the indicator of one of the PEDAL tabs light? Did you connect a MIDI cable to the PEDAL IN socket? In that case, the PEDAL division needs to be played from a PK-series pedal unit.

Cannot select orchestral sounds

Does the [ORCHESTRA] button light? If not, press it.

The organ sounds are not available

Does the [ORCHESTRA] indicator light? Press it so that its indicator goes dark.

Two sounds are produced when the keyboard is played

Did you press a MANUAL II tilt tab (whose indicator now lights)? Switch it off.

The pitch of the keyboard seems incorrect Is the [TUNE] setting correct (page 16)?

Is the transpose setting correct (page 17)?

Is the temperament setting correct (page 17)?

The C-190 does not respond to your playing Did you select the Demo mode? Leave that mode (page 10).

While the ORCHESTRA indicator lights, some sounds are transposed one octave down when a PEDAL sound is selected

This is normal and intended to provide a more natu- ral distribution of the pitches for the left and right sections.

The MANUAL I sound is not available to the left of the split point

Did you switch on at least one MANUAL I tilt tab after switching off the [II÷I] tilt tab?

Bass notes sound wrong/buzzing or vibration occurs

If you don’t hear the problem in the headphones: When playing at high volumes, resonance may occur in the instrument itself, or in objects near the C-190.

Troubleshooting

At times, other objects in the room, such as fluorescent lights or glass doors, could start vibrating. To minimize such unwanted resonance, please observe the following:

Locate the instrument at least 10~15 cm away from the walls.

Reduce the volume.

Increase the distance from the object that is resonat- ing.

If you can hear the problem in the headphones, there may be another reason. Please contact your dealer.

When the C-190 is connected to an external device

Are the connections between the C-190 and the MIDI sequencer or the other external device correct (page 23)?
