screws. Using other screws could damage the piano housing or result in a
reduced stability of the piano.
4. Screw the levelling bolts on the bottom of the pedal box completely in.
Put the pedal box on the angle pieces of the left and right side panel and use
two Phillips screws M6 ´25 on each side to affix both side panels to the pedal
box.
Then turn the levelling screws on the bottom of the pedal box as far out that
the pedal box is thus supported evenly over the entire length on the ground.

5 Connectivity options
On the connection box you find the headphones outlets 1 and 2.
Connecting headphones (not supplied) to outlet 2 mutes the speakers.
Using outlet 1 maintains the sound output through the speakers.
1. Connect the foot pedal to the provided connector on the bottom of the pedal
box.

Using the Soft pedal makes the piano sound smoother and the overall
volume is attenuated.
Sostenuto pedal
When stepping on the Sostenuto pedal, the currently played notes linger
until you release the pedal.
Sustain pedal
With the sustain pedal all played notes sound longer. This effect simulates
the lifting of the damper in an analogue keyboard instrument.

MIDI stands for ‘Musical Instrument Digital Interface’ and represents a global
standard for the communication of numerous electronic instruments and sound
modules.
