~CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the
instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators,
and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy
objects on it, or place it in aposition where anyone could walk on, trip over,
or roll anything over it.
• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always
hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.
• Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using amultiple-con
nector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause over
heating in the outlet.
• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be
used for extended periods of lime, or during electrical storms.
• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off
the power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all
components, set all volume levels to minimum.
• Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme
cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near aheater, or in acar during the
day) to prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration or damage to the inter
na
components.
• Do not use the instrument near other electrical products such as televisions,
radios, or speakers, since this might cause interference which can affect
proper operation of the other products.
• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might acciden
tally fall over.
• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables.
• When cleaning the instrument, use asoft, dry cloth. Do not use paintthinners,
solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths. Also, do
not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might
discolor the panel or keyboard.
• (For instruments with akey cover) Take care that the key cover does not
pinch your fingers, and do not insert afinger or hand in the key cover gap.
• (For instruments with akey cover) Never insert or drop paper or metallic or
other objects between the slits of the key cover and the keyboard. If this
happens, immediately turn off the power and remove the electric plug from
the outlet and have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service
personnel.
• Do not place the instrument against a wall (allow at least 3 cm/one-inch
from the wall), since this can cause inadequate air circulation, and possi
bly result in the instrument overheating.
• Read carefully the attached documentation explaining the assembly pro
cess. Failure to assemble the instrument in the proper sequence might
result in damage to the instrument or even injury.
• Do not operate the instrument for a long period of time at a high or un
comfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If
you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physi
cian.
.USING THE BENCH
(if
included)
• Do not play carelessly with or stand on the bench. Using it as atool or
step-ladder or for any other purpose might result in accident or injury.
• Only one person should sit on the bench at atime, in order to prevent the
possibility of accident or injury.
• (For height-adjustable benches) Do not attempt to adjust the bench height
while sitting on the bench, since this can cause excessive force to be im
posed on the adjustment mechanism, possibly resulting in damage to the
mechanism or even injury.
• If the bench screws become loose due to extensive long-term use, tighten
them periodically using the included tool.
• On the CLP-880PE, gently remove dust and dirt with asoft cloth. Do not wipe
too hard since small particles of dirt can scratch the instrument's finish.
• On the CLP-880PE, bumping the surface of the instrument with metal, porce
lain, or other hard objects can cause the finish to crack or peel. Use caution.
• Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do
not use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
.SAVING USER DATA
• Save all data to an external device such as the Yamaha MIDI Data Filer MDF3,
in order to help prevent the loss of important data due to amalfunction or
user operating error.
