Overview and Setup
EN-6
■ Using Batteries
• Be sure to turn off power before loading batteries.
• Use commercially available AA-size alkaline batteries
or AA-size rechargeable nickel metal hydride batteries.
• Note the precautions below while the Digital Piano is
turned upside down to load batteries.
− Take care to avoid injury due to pinching your
fingers under the Digital Piano.
− Do not allow the Digital Piano to tip over or otherwise
be subjected to strong impact. Impact can damage
the volume knob and keyboard keys.
Note the precautions below when using rechargeable
batteries.
• Use Panasonic Group AA-size eneloop rechargeable
batteries. Do not use any other type of batteries.
• Use only the specified charger to charge batteries.
• Rechargeable batteries must be removed from the product
for charging.
• For information about using eneloop batteries or their
specified charger, be sure to read the user documentation
and precautions that come with each item, and use them
only as directed.
Be sure to replace batteries at least once a year, even if there
is no indication of low battery power. Dead rechargeable
batteries (eneloop) in particular may deteriorate if they are left
in the product. Remove rechargeable batteries from the
product as soon as possible after they go dead.
1.
Open the battery cover on the bottom of the
Digital Piano.
2.
Load six AA-size batteries into the battery
compartment.
Make sure the positive + and negative - ends of the
batteries are facing as marked on the Digital Piano.
3.
Insert the tabs of the battery cover into the
holes along the side of the battery
compartment, and close the cover.
■ Specifying the Battery Type
1.
Turn on the Digital Piano.
• See “Turning Power On or Off” (page EN-7).
2.
Specify the battery type by holding down the
3 FUNCTION and pressing the F7 keyboard
key.
• One tone: Alkaline batteries
• Two tones: Rechargeable nickel metal hydride
batteries*
* The volume and sound quality are adjusted to suit the
battery characteristics.
■ Low Battery Indicator
Low power is indicated when the lights of all the touch
buttons, except for the 3 FUNCTION, start to flash. When
this happens, try lowering the volume level. If this does not
stop the flashing, replace the batteries with new ones.
• Using the Digital Piano while batteries are very low can
cause it to turn off suddenly. This can cause data
stored in Digital Piano memory to be corrupted or lost.
• Low battery power can cause abnormal operation. If
this happens, replace batteries with new ones.
