NOTICE
To avoid the possibility of malfunction/damage to the product, damage to data, or damage to other property, follow the notices below.

Handling
Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may generate noise. When you use the instrument along with an application on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch, we recommend that you set "Airplane Mode" to "ON" on that device in order to avoid noise caused by communication. 
Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration, damage to the internal components or unstable operation. (Verified operating temperature range: 5° – 40°C, or 41° – 104°F.)
Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.
In the case of a model with a polished finish, bumping the surface of the instrument with metal, porcelain, or other hard objects can cause the finish to crack or peel. Use caution

Maintenance
When cleaning the instrument, use a soft and dry/slightly damp cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, alcohol, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
In the case of a model with a polished finish, gently remove dust and dirt with a soft cloth. Do not wipe too hard since small particles of dirt can scratch the instrument's finish.
During extreme changes in temperature or humidity, condensation may occur and water may collect on the surface of the instrument. If water is left, the wooden parts may absorb the water and be damaged. Make sure to wipe any water off immediately with a soft cloth.

Saving data
Recorded Song and edited Song/Style/Voice/MIDI setup data, etc. are lost when you turn off the power to the instrument. This also occurs when the power is turned off by the Auto Power Off function (page 19). Save the data to the instrument, or to USB flash drive (page 33).
You can back up the data and settings of this instrument to the USB flash drive as a backup file (page 43), as well as restore a backup file to the instrument. To protect against data loss due to some failure, an operation mistake, etc., save your important data to a USB flash drive (page 43).
For information about the handling of USB flash drives, refer to page 97.
To protect against data loss through USB flash drive damage, we recommend that you save your important data onto spare USB flash drive or an external device such as a computer as backup data.

Tuning
Unlike an acoustic piano, this instrument does not need to be tuned by an expert (although the pitch can be user-adjusted to match other instruments). This is because the pitch of digital instruments is always maintained perfectly. However, if you feel there is something abnormal concerning the keyboard touch, contact your Yamaha dealer. 


Compatible formats for this instrument

GM2
"GM (General MIDI)" is one of the most common Voice allocation formats. "GM System Level 2" is a standard specification that enhances the original "GM" and improves Song data compatibility. It provides for increased polyphony, greater Voice selection, expanded Voice parameters, and integrated effect processing.

XG
XG is a major enhancement of the GM System Level 1 format, and was developed by Yamaha specifically to provide more Voices and variations, as well as greater expressive control over Voices and effects, and to ensure compatibility of data well into the future.

GS
GS was developed by the Roland Corporation. In the same way as Yamaha XG, GS is a major enhancement of the GM specifically to provide more Voices and Drum kits and their variations, as well as greater expressive control over Voices and effects.

XF
The Yamaha XF format enhances the SMF (Standard MIDI File) standard with greater functionality and openended expandability for the future. This instrument is capable of displaying lyrics when an XF file containing lyric data is played.

SFF GE (Guitar Edition)
"SFF (Style File Format)" is an original Style file format by Yamaha which uses a unique conversion system to provide high-quality automatic accompaniment based on a wide range of chord types. "SFF GE (Guitar Edition)" is an enhanced format of SFF, which features improved note transposition for guitar tracks.
