Before Using the Clavinova
CLP-380 Owner’s Manual 15
Introduction
1. Connect the power cable.
First insert the plug of the power cable into the AC connector on the Clavinova, then plug the other end of the cable into the proper
AC outlet on the wall. For an illustration of the location of the [AC IN] connector, see “Panel Controls and Terminals” (page 10).
In some areas a plug adaptor may be provided to match the pin configuration of the AC wall outlets in your area.
WARNING
Make sure your CLP-380 is rated for the AC voltage supplied in the area in which it is to be used (voltage rating appears on the name
plate on the bottom panel). In some areas, a voltage selector may be provided on the bottom panel of the main keyboard unit near the
power cord. Make sure that the voltage selector is set for the voltage in your area. Connecting the unit to the wrong AC supply can
cause serious damage to the internal circuitry and may even pose a shock hazard!
Use only the AC power cord supplied with the CLP-380. If the supplied cord is lost or damaged and needs to be replaced, contact
your Yamaha dealer. The use of an inappropriate replacement can pose a fire and shock hazard!
The type of AC power cord provided with the CLP-380 may be different depending on the country in which it is purchased. (In some
areas a plug adaptor may be provided to match the pin configuration of the AC wall outlets in your area.) Do NOT modify the plug pro-
vided with the CLP-380. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
