Handling the Floppy Disk Drive(FDD) and Floppy Disk

About the Floppy Disks

• To handle floppy disks with care:

• Do not place heavy objects on a disk or bend or apply

pressure to the disk in any way. Always keep floppy disks
in their protective cases when they are not in use.

• Do not expose the disk to direct sunlight, extremely high

or low temperatures, or excessive humidity, dust or liq-
uids.

• Do not open the sliding shutter and touch the exposed

surface of the floppy disk inside.

• Do not expose the disk to magnetic fields, such as those

produced by televisions, speakers, motors, etc., since
magnetic fields can partially or completely erase data on
the disk, rendering it unreadable.

• Never use a floppy disk with a deformed shutter or housing.
• Do not attach anything other than the provided labels to

a floppy disk. Also make sure that labels are attached in
the proper location.

• To protect your data (Write-protect Tab):

• To prevent accidental erasure of important data, slide the

disk’s write-protect tab to the “protect” position (tab
open).

• Data backup

• For maximum data security Yamaha recommends that

you keep two copies of important data on separate floppy
disks. This gives you a backup if one disk is lost or dam-
aged. To make a backup disk use the Copy Disk function
on page 55.

Maintenance

Clean the instrument using a dry, soft cloth or slightly damp, soft cloth (wring well).

Do not use benzine, thinner, detergent, or chemical cloth for cleaning. Do not place vinyl, plastic, or rubber
products on the instrument.
Otherwise, the panel or keys may be discolored or degraded.
Before using the Clavinova, be sure to read “Precautions” on pages 3-5.

Tuning

Unlike an acoustic piano, the Clavinova does not need to be tuned. It always stays perfectly in tune.

Transporting

If you move to another location, you can transport the Clavinova along with other stuff. You can move the unit as it
is (assembled) or you can disassemble the unit down to the condition when you first open the package. Transport the
keyboard horizontally. Do not lean it to the wall and the like.
