Introduction
FOR UNITED KINGDOM:
FOR YOUR SAFETY, PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TEXT CAREFULLY
This appliance is supplied with a molded 3-pin mains plug for your safety and convenience.
The plug contains a 5 amp fuse.
Should the fuse need to be replaced, please ensure that the replacement fuse has a rating of 5
amps and that it is approved by ASTA or BSI to BSI1362.
Check for the ASTA mark or the BSI mark on the body of the fuse.
If the plug contains a removable fuse cover, you must ensure that it is retted when the fuse is
replaced.
If the fuse cover is lost, the plug must not be used until a replacement cover is obtained.
A replacement fuse cover can be obtained from your local Hammond Dealer.
IF THE FITTED MOULDED PLUG IS UNSUITABLE FOR THE SOCKET OUTLET IN YOUR HOME, THEN
THE FUSE SHOULD BE REMOVED AND THE PLUG CUT OFF AND DISPOSED OF SAFELY.
THERE IS A DANGER OF SEVERE ELECTRICAL SHOCK IF THE CUT-OFF PLUG IS INSERTED INTO ANY
13 AMP SOCKET.
If a new plug is to be attached to the cord, please observe the wiring code as shown below.
If in any doubt, please consult a qualied electrician.
IMPORTANT - The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:
Blue: Neutral
Brown: Live
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this unit may not correspond with the coloured
marking identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows.
The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked
with the letter N or coloured BLACK.
The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is
marked with the letter L or coloured RED.
Under no circumstances should either of these wires be connected to the earth terminal of the
three-pin plug, marked with the letter E or the Earth Symbol .
To replace the fuse, open the fuse compartment with a screwdriver and replace the fuse and
fuse cover.

4IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ
Power Supply
Do not use this unit on the same power circuit with any
device that will generate line noise (such as an electric mo-
tor or variable lighting system).
Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn othe
power to all units. is will help prevent malfunctions and/
or damage to speakers or other devices.
is unit features an Auto Power Ofunction that auto-
matically turns the power oif the unit is not operated for a
specied period of time. e setting will revert to its default
value if not backed up before the power is turned o.
Placement
Using the unit near power ampliers (or other equipment
containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To
alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit; or
move it farther away from the source of interference.
is device may interfere with radio and television recep-
tion. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.
Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices,
such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit.
Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call,
or while conversing. Should you experience such problems,
you should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a
greater distance from this unit, or switch them o.
Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near de-
vices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed vehicle, or
otherwise subject it to temperature extremes. Also, do not
allow lighting devices that normally are used while their
light source is very close to the unit (such as a piano light),
or powerful spotlights to shine upon the same area of the
unit for extended periods of time. Excessive heat can de-
form or discolor the unit.
When moved from one location to another where the tem-
perature and/or humidity is very dierent, water droplets
(condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or mal-
function may result if you attempt to use the unit in this
condition. erefore, before using the unit, you must al-
low it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has
completely evaporated.
Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain
on the unit for long periods of time. Such objects can dis-
color or otherwise harmfully aect the nish.
Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument.
Peeling such matter othe instrument may damage the ex-
terior nish.
Maintenance
To clean the unit, use a dry, soft cloth; or one that is slightly
dampened.
To remove stubborn dirt oplastic parts, use a cloth im-
pregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards,
be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.
Try to wipe the entire surface using an equal amount of
strength, moving the cloth along with the grain of the
wood. Rubbing too hard in the same area can damage the
nish.
Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any
kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or defor-
mation.
Additional Precautions
Please be aware that the contents of memory can be irre-
trievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the improper
operation of the unit. To protect yourself against the risk of
losing important data, we recommend that you periodically
save a backup copy of important data you have stored in the
unit’s memory in USB Flash drive.
Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents
of data that was stored in another MIDI device (e.g., a se-
quencer) once it has been lost. Hammond assumes no li-
ability concerning such loss of data.
Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s but-
tons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks and
connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.
When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the
connector itself - never pull on the cable. is will avoid
causing short circuits, or damage to the cable’s internal ele-
ments.
To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit's
volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use head-
phones, so you do not need to be concerned about those
around you (especially when it is late at night).
When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box
(including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise,
you will need to use equivalent packaging materials.

Introduction
MAIN FEATURES
AUTHENTIC HAMMOND DRAWBAR ORGAN
e XK-5 is rst and foremost a genuine HAMMOND organ with Virtual Tone Wheels
to provide its traditional sound.
VIRTUAL MULTI-CONTACT KEYBOARD
e XK-5 is equipped with a Virtual Multi-Contact Keyboard to produce the comfort-
able feeling and quick response of the vintage models B-3/C-3. Enjoy a variety of types
of the Multi-Contact essence, from the delicate sound produced just before all the points
perfectly touch, to the changes of noises in accordance with the contact conditions.
e XK-5 is equipped with a Virtual Multi-Contact Keyboard to produce the comfortable
feeling and quick response of models such as the B-3/C-3. e unique “touch” of a Vin-
tage Hammond, where the dierent harmonics sound in sequence as a key is pressed, is
now at your ngertips. All of the iconic Hammond performance techniques or “Moves”
used by legendary Hammond players have the familiar response and sound.
5 SETS OF DRAWBARS & PRESET KEYS
5 sets of Drawbars and the Preset Keys same as on the B-3/C-3 are equipped to enable an
instant switching to the Drawbar settings prepared beforehand and dynamic tone changes
during performance.
DIGITAL LESLIE/VIBRATO
A digital and programmable Leslie is available for the Drawbar voices, as well as the tradi-
tional “Chorus-Vibrato” as used on the legendary B-3/C-3.
AMP SIMULATOR/EFFECTS
e tube circuits simulate the pre-amplier of the B-3/C-3 to provide “tube warmth.”
Four dierent “non-linear distortion” Preamp Emulation Proles allow you to add tube
warmth to the Overdrive. Also equipped are an Equalizer, Multi-Eects, and, in addition,
a Master Equalizer for adjusting the total tonal quality. is corresponds with the sporadic
unexpected requirements during performance.
MIDI MASTER KEYBOARD
External Zones are available to enable the XK-5 to be used as a master keyboard.
PATCHES AND FAVORITES
e XK-5 has several dierent “Preset Banks” which allow the reverse-color Preset Keys
to be programmed with a number of dierent settings. e Preset Keys can be assigned to
patches within the selected Bank, or can be re-assigned as “Favorites” recalling your choice
of patches from any of the Preset Banks.
SYSTEM EXPANSION
You can expand the XK-5 to a console-style organ by adding the optional Lower Keyboard
XLK-5 and the Pedal Keyboard XPK-250.
USB COMPATIBILITY
e XK-5 has both USB “A” and “B” ports. e “A” port (“USB to Host”) enables easy
System, MIDI, and Audio Communications with your Computer. e “B” port allows
Backups and Software Upgrades which are simple procedures, using common USB ‘Flash’
Drives.
