WARNING Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following: Power supply/AC power adaptor · Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The · · · required voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument. Use the specified adaptor (PA-300 or an equivalent recommended by Yamaha) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instrument or overheating. Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have accumulated on it. Do not place the AC adaptor cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy objects on it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything over it. Water warning · Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in · damp or wet conditions, or place containers on it containing liquids which might spill into any openings. Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands. Fire warning · Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit. A burning item may fall over and cause a fire. If you notice any abnormality · If the AC adaptor cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a sudden loss of sound during use of the instrument, or if any unusual smells or smoke should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the power switch, disconnect the adaptor plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel. Do not open · Do not open the instrument or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or modify them in any way. The instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. If it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel. CAUTION Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following: Power supply/AC power adaptor · When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, · · always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or during electrical storms. Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multiple-connector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the outlet. Location · Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration or damage to the internal components. Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may generate noise. Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over. Before moving the instrument, remove all connected adaptor and other cables. Use only the stand specified for the instrument. When attaching the stand, use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause damage to the internal components or result in the instrument falling over. · · · · (3)-7 1/2 PSR-2100/1100 3 Connections · Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all components, set all volume levels to minimum. Also, be sure to set the volumes of all components at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level. Saving data Saving and backing up your data · Some of the current memory data (see page 42) is lost when you turn off the power to the instrument. Save the data to a floppy disk/the User Drive (see page 39, 47). Saved data may be lost due to malfunction or incorrect operation. Save important data to a floppy disk. When you change settings in a display page and then exit from that page, System Setup data (listed in the Parameter Chart of the separate Data List booklet) is automatically stored. However, this edited data is lost if you turn off the power without properly exiting from the relevant display. Maintenance · When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths. Handling caution · Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument. · Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the panel or keyboard. If this happens, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel. Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard. Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do not use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors. Do not operate the instrument for a long period of time at a high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician. Backing up the floppy disk · To protect against data loss through media damage, we recommend that you save your important data onto two floppy disks. · · · Caution for data operations Make sure NEVER to turn the PSR-2100/1100's power off during any kind of data operation involving the USER/ FLOPPY DISK drives -- such as saving, deleting, or copying/pasting -- until the operation is completely finished. (Make sure to wait until the alert message disappears.) Turning the power off during the operation results in the loss of the data being saved or pasted to the respective drive. Keeping the power on during such operations is particularly important in regard to the USER drive. Turning off the power while performing a save/delete/paste operation with the USER drive may result in loss of ALL data on the USER drive (upon the next power on) -- and not just the data in question. In other words, if you are performing a save/delete/ paste operation on only the song data of the USER drive and you turn off the power before the operation is completed, you risk losing ALL your USER drive data -- including all voices, styles, Multi Pad banks and Registration Memory presets you've saved to the USER drive. This caution also applies to creating a new folder on the USER drive or using the factory reset operation (page 154). Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed. Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use. Even when the power switch is in the "STANDBY" position, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the AC power adaptor from the wall AC outlet. (3)-7 2/2 4 PSR-2100/1100 Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha PSR-2100/1100!
