1. Avoid Humidity & Heat

Avoid placing the Clavinova in areas that are subject to exces-

sive 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-87A and CVP-85A), or cover the instrument with the dust

cover provided (CVP-83S).

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 elec-

trical shock!

7. Electric Interference

Since the Clavinova contains digital circuitry, it may cause

interference if placed too close to radio or television receivers.

If this occurs, move the instrument further away from the af-

fected equipment.

8. Check Your Power Supply

Make sure that your local AC mains voltage matches the volt-

age 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 (CVP-87A and

CVP-85A) or on the rear panel (CVP-83S). Make sure that the

voltage selector is set for the voltage in your area.

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 and Style Disk are write-

protected, and therefore cannot be used to save songs. To save

Performance Memory songs from the Performance Memory, a

blank floppy disk should be used (one blank disk is supplied

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 dam-

age 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:

Your Clavinova will give you years of playing pleasure if you observe the simple rules given below:

• 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 ex-

tending 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 damag-

ing 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 only double-sided double density (2DD) 3.5-inch

floppy disks with the Clavinova.

Taking Care of Your 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 de-

vice that emits a strong magnetic field.

■ Do not store disks in places exposed to direct sun-

light 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 condi-

tions 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 eventually 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 39). If the original

disk is damaged or your song is deleted, the backup

disk can be used instead of the original.
