as backup data even if you turn off the power.

To save the User Song data to a computer:

Among the backup data listed above, only the User
Song (UserSong1.mid) can be transferred to a com-
puter and saved as a SMF file. For details, refer to
page 8 of the “Computer-related Operations” on the
website.

To initialize the backup data:

While holding down the C7 key (right-most key), turn
the power on to initialize the backup data to the fac-
tory initial settings.

• Before you transfer an SMF file from a computer, make

sure to transfer the User Song to a computer for safe
keeping, since already-recorded data will be replaced
with the new transfer.

• Certain MIDI files in SMF format 0 or 1 may contain data that is not sup-

ported by your digital piano. In such a case, the files may not play as origi-
nally intended.
