•

Before connecting the instrument to other electronic compo-

nents, turn off the power for all components. Before turning the

power on or off for all components, set all volume levels to mini-

mum. Also, be sure to set the volumes of all components at their

minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while

playing the instrument to set the desired listening level.

•

When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use

paint thinners, solvents, cleaning ﬂuids, or chemical-impregnated

wiping cloths.

•

Do not insert a ﬁnger or hand in any gaps on the instrument.

•

Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the

gaps on the panel or keyboard. If this happens, turn off the

power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC out-

let. Then have the instrument inspected by qualiﬁed Yamaha ser-

vice personnel.

•

Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument,

since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.

•

Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instru-

ment, and do not use excessive force on the buttons, switches or

connectors.

•

Do not operate the instrument for a long period of time at a high

or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent

hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the

ears, consult a physician.

Saving and backing up your data

•

Some of the current memory data (see page 42) is lost when you

turn off the power to the instrument. Save the data to a ﬂoppy

disk/the User Drive (see page 39, 47).

Saved data may be lost due to malfunction or incorrect opera-

tion. Save important data to a ﬂoppy disk.

Backing up the ﬂoppy disk

•

To protect against data loss through media damage, we recom-

mend that you save your important data onto two ﬂoppy disks.

Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

Even when the power switch is in the “STANDBY” position, electricity is still ﬂowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not

using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet.

ConnectionsMaintenanceHandling cautionSaving data

When you change settings in a display page and then exit

from that page, System Setup data (listed in the Parameter

Chart of the separate Data List booklet) is automatically

stored. However, this edited data is lost if you turn off the

power without properly exiting from the relevant display.

Caution for data operations

Make sure NEVER to turn the PSR-2100/1100’s power off during any kind of data operation involving the USER/

FLOPPY DISK drives — such as saving, deleting, or copying/pasting — until the operation is completely ﬁnished.

(Make sure to wait until the alert message disappears.)

Turning the power off during the operation results in the loss of the data being saved or pasted to the respective drive.

Keeping the power on during such operations is particularly important in regard to the USER drive. Turning off the

power while performing a save/delete/paste operation with the USER drive may result in loss of ALL data on the USER

drive (upon the next power on) — and not just the data in question. In other words, if you are performing a save/delete/

paste operation on only the song data of the USER drive and you turn off the power before the operation is completed,

you risk losing ALL your USER drive data — including all voices, styles, Multi Pad banks and Registration Memory pre-

sets you’ve saved to the USER drive.

This caution also applies to creating a new folder on the USER drive or using the factory reset operation (page 154).

Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modiﬁcations to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.
