Symptom Cause/Action Page
Power does not turn on

Is the power cord connected correctly? p. 18

The button doesn’t work

Nothing appears in the screen

Since the FP-7 uses a liquid crystal screen, it may happen that no text or graphics
appear in the screen if the temperature is below zero degrees Celsius (32 degrees
Fahrenheit).

Vertical lines appear in the screen/
Color is “washed out” at the edges
of the screen

These occur due to the nature of a liquid crystal display, and do not indicate a
malfunction. They can be minimized by adjusting the contrast of the screen.

Pedal does not work, or is “stuck”/
Pedal does not operate correctly

Is the pedal connected correctly?
Plug the cord firmly into the pedal jack. p. 21
Are you using a pedal made by another manufacturer?
Use the pedal included with the FP-7 or an optional DP Series or similar pedal.
Unplugging a pedal cord from the FP-7 while the power is on may cause the
pedal’s effect to be applied nonstop.
Be sure to switch off the power to the FP-7 before attempting to disconnect or
connect a pedal cord.
If you’ve assigned the soft pedal or sostenuto pedal as a registration select switch,
or assigned it to some other function, the pedal won’t operate as a soft pedal or
sostenuto pedal.
