Before You Play
Connecting the AC Adaptor
NOTE
To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other
devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the
power on all devices before making any connections.
1. Connect the supplied AC adaptor and AC cord.
fig.00-02
2. Connect the AC adaptor to the DC In connector
on the rear panel.
3. As shown in the diagram, loop the AC adaptor
cord around the cord stay to fasten it in place.
fig.00-01
4. Plug the AC cord into a power outlet.
NOTE
To prevent the inadvertent disruption of power to your unit
(should the plug be pulled out accidentally), to avoid
applying undue stress to the DC In connector, anchor the
power cord using the cord hook, as shown in the diagram.
Even if the cord is fastened, strong tension applied to the
cord may cause it to be damaged or broken. Be careful not to
pull the cord accidentally, or to apply strong pressure to it.
Installing the Music Stand
1. Assemble the music stand as shown in the
diagram.
fig.00-10
NOTE
When moving the piano, be sure to remove the music stand
as a safety precaution.
Connecting Pedals
1. Connect the supplied pedals to one of the pedal
jacks.
fig.00-03
When connected to the Damper jack, the pedal can be
used as a damper pedal.
When connected to Soft, the pedal can be used as a soft
pedal.
NOTE
Unplugging a pedal cord from the unit while the power is on
may cause the pedal’s effect to be applied without stopping.
The power of the F-90 must be turned off before inserting or
removing a pedal cord.
Damper Pedal
Use this pedal to sustain the sound.
While the pedal is depressed, long lingering reverberations
continue to be added to the sound after you release from the
keys. This is the same function as the right pedal of an
acoustic piano.
Soft Pedal
This pedal is used to make the sound softer.
Playing with the soft pedal depressed produces a sound that
is not as strong as when otherwise played with the
equivalent strength. This is the same function as the left
pedal of an acoustic piano.
Some tones are affected less than others.
NOTE
By obtaining a second pedal, you can then use two pedals
simultaneously. If you wish to purchase the optional pedal
(DP Series), please contact the dealer where you purchased
the F-90.
