Taking Care of Your Clavinova
Your Clavinova will give you years of playing pleasure if you observe the simple rules given below:
1. Avoid Humidity & Heat
Avoid placing the Clavinova in areas that are subject to excessive
humidity or heat. Do not leave the instrument near heaters or in a
car exposed to direct sunlight, for example.
2. Avoid Dust & Moisture
Avoid locations in which the instrument is likely to be exposed to
excessive dust or moisture.
3. Power-off Before Connecting
Connections between the Clavinova and any other device must
be made with both pieces of equipment turned off.
4. Handle With Care
Never apply excessive force to the controls, connectors or other
parts of your Clavinova, and avoid scratching or bumping it with
hard objects. Further, always turn the POWER switch off after
use, and close the key cover to protect the keyboard (CVP-79A/
69/69A), or cover the instrument with the dust cover provided
(CVP-59S).
5. Clean Carefully
Clean the cabinet and keys of your Clavinova only with a clean,
slightly damp cloth. A neutral cleanser may be used if desired.
Never use abrasive cleansers, waxes, solvents or chemical dust
cloths since these can dull or damage the finish.
6. Never Tamper With the Internal Circuitry
Never open the Clavinova cabinet and touch or tamper with the
internal circuitry. Tampering with the circuitry can result in electri-
cal shock!
7. Electric Interference
Since the Clavinova contains digital circuitry, it may cause inter-
ference if placed too close to radio or television receivers. If this
occurs, move the instrument further away from the affected
equipment.
8. Check Your Power Supply
Make sure that your local AC mains voltage matches the voltage
specified on the name plate on the bottom panel. In some areas
a voltage selector may be provided on the bottom panel of the
main keyboard unit near the power cord. Make sure that the
voltage selector is set for the voltage in your area. The voltage
selector is set at 240V when the unit is initially shipped. To
change the setting use a “minus” screwdriver to rotate the selec-
tor dial so that the correct voltage appears next to the pointer on
the panel.
9. Name Plate Location
The Clavinova name plate, including the unit’s serial number, is
located on the bottom panel of the main unit.
10.Handling Floppy Disks
Yamaha Disk Orchestra Collection disks are write-protected and
therefore cannot be used to save songs. To save your recorded
songs a blank floppy disk should be used (one blank disk is sup-
plied with the Clavinova).
Taking Care of Your Floppy Disks
■ Do NOT eject the disk during recording or playback, or at any
time when the disk drive lamp is lit. Doing so may damage both
the disk and the FDD.
■ Do NOT turn the Clavinova on or off while the disk is in the
drive.
■ Always eject the disk before turning the Clavinova off.
■ When ejecting a floppy disk from the disk drive:
• To eject a floppy disk, press the eject button slowly as far as it will
go. Then when the disk Is fully ejected, remove it by hand.
• The disk may not be ejected properly if the eject button is pressed
too quickly or if it is not pressed in far enough. (The eject button
may become stuck halfway with the disk extending from the slot
by only a few millimeters). If this is the case, do not attempt to pull
out the partially ejected disk. Doing so may damage the disk drive
mechanism and/or the floppy disk. To remove a partially ejected
disk, try pressing the eject button once again or push the disk
back into the slot, then repeat the eject procedure carefully.
■ Never open or close the key cover while a disk is extending
from the drive (i.e. in the ejected position). The key cover
may contact the disk, possibly damaging the disk or even
the disk drive.
■ Do not insert anything but floppy disks into the disk drive.
Other objects may cause damage to the disk drive or floppy
disk.
■ Use the 3.5-inch 2DD or 2HD floppy disks with the
Clavinova.
Precautions Regarding Floppy Disk Use
■ Never open the disk’s shutter. Dirt or dust on the Internal
magnetic surface will cause data errors.
■ Never leave disks near a speaker, TV, or other device that
emits a strong magnetic field.
■ Do not store disks in places exposed to direct sunlight or
sources of high temperature.
■ Do not place heavy objects such as books on top of a disk.
■ Avoid getting the disks wet.
■ Be sure to store the disks in environmental conditions as
specified below:
• Storage temperature: 4
°
to 53
°
C (39
°
to 127
°
F).
• Storage humidity: 8 to 90% relative humidity.
• Store in an area free from dust, sand, smoke, etc.
■ Be sure to apply the disk label at the proper position. When
changing the label never cover the old label with a new
label; always remove the old label first.
Head Cleaning
The head of the disk drive unit will get dirty as you use it even-
tually causing data errors. If this occurs, clean the head with a
3.5 inch head cleaning disk (available from most computer
supply stores).
Data Backup
It is recommended that you copy your recorded songs to
another disk for backup (see page 102). If the original disk is
damaged or your song is deleted, the backup disk can be
used instead of the original.
