Before You Play
About the Volume Knob
The VOLUME knob adjusts the overall
volume.
The VOLUME knob is located at the far left of the
piano’s lower panel.
fig.2-05.e
* The VOLUME knob “clicks” to make the knob easy to stop
when center position is reached.
* To protect your ears when using headphones for extended
periods, take care not to listen at excessively high volume.

switching on power. Even with the volume all the way down,
you may still hear some sound when the power is switched on,

Connecting Headphones
The DP-1000 features two headphone jacks. This allows two
people to listen through headphones simultaneously, making
it very useful for lessons and when performing piano pieces
for four hands. Additionally, this allows you to play without
having to worry about bothering others around you, even at
night.
1. Connect the headphones to either of the
headphone jacks on the underside of the
DP-1000, on the left.
Sound will no longer be heard from the DP-1000’s
speakers.
2. Adjust the headphones volume with the
DP-1000’s Volume knob.

■ Precautions to Take When Using
Headphones
* To avoid damaging or severing the headphone cord, be sure to
handle the headphones by holding the phones themselves, and
grasping the plug and not the cord when pulling the headphone
plug.
* Connecting the headphones when the volume of connected
equipment is turned up may result in damage to the
headphones. Connect the headphones only after turning the
volume down completely.
* Listening at excessively high volume levels will not only damage
the headphones, but may also cause hearing loss. Listen at
appropriate levels.
