PHO
OWNER’S
MANUAL
CONGRATULATIONS
Congratulations
on
becoming
the
owner
of
a
Yamaha
PF10
Electronic
Piano.
The
PF10
is
a
compact,
lightweight
electronic
piano
which
utilizes
Yamaha’s
advanced
FM
sound
source
technology
to
produce
beautiful
natural-sounding
music.
Its
keyboard
contains
76
keys
and
covers
a
broad
six-octave
range,
and
there
are
10
voice
selectors-PIANO

VIBRAPHONE,
and
CLAV-to
allow
a
wide
variety
of
musical
expression.
Further,
a
new
touch-type
system
is
used
with
electric
organ
type
keys
which
not
only
provides
key
response
that
is
close
to
that
of
an
acoustic
piano,
but
easier
for
beginners
to
play.
The
PF10
also
features
a
built-in
amplifier
system
with
dual
speakers
to
produce
a
rich,
full
sound
that
emanates
from
the
entire
instrument
rather
than
just
from
a
single
tiny
speaker
as
in
comparable
models.
Taking
full
advantage
of
its
dual
speaker
system,
the
PF10
produces
a
beautiful
stereo
chorus
effect
that
creates
a
vibrant
multi-instrument
sound.
Please
be
sure
to
read
this
manual
thoroughly
in
order
to
get
maximum
enjoyment
from
your
Yamaha
PF10
Electronic
Piano.

avoid
locations
in
which
the
instrument
is
likely
to
be
subjected
to
vibration,
excessive

cold
or
moisture.
HANDLING
Avoid
applying
excessive
force
to
the
instruments’s
knobs
and
switches.

unplug
your
electronic
piano
if
you
will
not
be
using
it
for
an
extended
period
of
time.
RELOCATION
When
moving
the
electronic
piano
once
it
has
been
set
up,
be
sure
to
disconnect
all
cords
that
connect
to
other
equip-
ment.
This
will
helo
prevent
accidental
damage
to
or
short-
ing
of
interconnection
cables.
Carefully
follow
the
“CONNECTION”
instructions
given
in
this
manual
when
setting

Connection
errors
can
lead
to
serious
damage
to
the
instru-
ment,
amplifier,
and
speakers.
CLEANING
Do
not
use
solvents
such
as
benzine
or
thinner
to
clean
your
electronic
piano
as
these
may
cause
discoloration
or
staining
of
the
instrument's
exterior.
Use
a
soft,
dry
cloth.
SAVE
THIS
MANUAL
After
studying
this
manual
thoroughly,
it
should
be
stored
in
a
safe
place
for
future
reference.
LIGHTNING
In
the
event
of
an
electrical
storm,
the
instrument’s
power
cord
should
be
unplugged
to
eliminate
the
possibility
of
serious
damage.
OTHER
APPLIANCES
Use
your
electronic
piano
where
its
digital
circuitry
cannot
be
influenced
by electromagnetic
radiation
from
appliances
such
as
televisions,
radios,
etc.

are
provided:
one

and
a

Use
of
stereo

allows
you
to
enjoy
a
rich

while
other
mini

can
be
plugged
into
the

for
con-
venient
private
listening
to
the

e
When

off
so
that
no

and

Il
Either
of
these
jacks
can
be
used
to
provide
the
PF10
output
signal
to
an
external
power
amplifier,
integrated
amp/speaker
(such
as
any
standard
musical
instrument
amplifier)
or
mixer.
A
speaker
with
no
built-in
amplifier
cannot
be
connected
directly
to
these
jacks.
A
power
amplifier
and
speaker
system
or
an
integrated

must
be
used.
@
When
connecting
the
PF10
to
an
external

system,
connect
the
plug
to
the
stereo
amp’s
AUX
terminal.
Although
the
PF10’s

is
heard
if
a
single

is
connected,
the

can
only
be

KEY
HOLD
(FOOT
SW.)
An
FC-5
foot
pedal
(supplied)
is
connected
to
this
jack.
When
the
foot
pedal
is
depressed,
an
effect
is
obtained
similar
to
that
obtained
when
the
sustain
pedal
of
an
acoustic
piano
is
used.
If
you
depress
the
foot
pedal
while
pressing
a
key,
the
note
will
be
sustained
even
when
you
release
the
key.
The
same
is
true
with
chords.
Since
the
sustain
effect
will
be
held
as
long
as
the
foot
pedal
is
depressed,
the
sound
is
cut
off
when
the
pedal
is
released.
@
The
above
effect
is
not
obtained
if
the
SUSTAIN
pedal
is
being
used
as
Sustain
has
priority
over
KEY
HOLD,
@
If
you
want
to
obtain
this
effect
for
another
sound,
release
the
pedal,
press
the
desired
key(s)
and
depress
the
pedal
again.
If
you
depress
the
KEY
HOLD
pedal
while
pressing
16
keys
simultaneously,
all
sixteen
notes
will
be
sustained,
so
you
must
release
the
pedal
if
you
want
to
produce
other
sounds.If,
however,
you
are
depressing
the
foot
peda!
to
hold
only
four
keys,
for
example,
you
can
play
12
other
sounds
simultaneously.

Connection
O
SUSTAIN
(FOOT
SW.)
Connect
the
other
FC-5
foot
pedal
to
this
jack.
This
foot
pedal
permits
convenient
foot
control
of
the
SUSTAIN
on/off
function.
e
Sustain
Effect
By
depressing
the
SUSTAIN
foot
pedal
you
obtain
the
same
effect
as
that
obtained
by
using
the
sustain
foot
pedal
on
an
acoustic
piano—the
sound
graduaily
de-
creases
even
after
you
release
the
key.
When
you
release
the
foot
pedal,
the
sound
being
sustained
is
immediately
cancelled.
@
The
sustain
effect
is
not
obtained
if
the
FC-5
foot
pedal
is
not
connected
to
this
jack.

LINE
INPUT
(External
Input
Jack)
This
jack
is
used
to
connect
an
external
source
such
as
a
rhythm
machine,
cassette
deck,
or
other
keyboard
to
play
through
the
PF10.
Thus
you
can
mix
the
sounds
produced
by
the
PF10
with
these
other
sources
to
expand
the
range
of
your
musical
enjoyment.
e
Since
the
volume
of
the
external
component
cannot
be
controlled
by
the
PF10's
volume
control,
adjustments
must
be
made
on
the
external
component.
e
Only
one
LINE
INPUT
jack
is
provided.
To
connect
a
stereo
source,
plug
in
either
the
L
or
R
output
line.
The
monaural
signal
will
be
heard
simultaneously
from
both
of
the
PF10's
built-in
speakers.

if
installed
in
the
