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.
