To enable the Auto Power Off function:
While holding down [METRONOME/RHYTHM] and 
[PIANIST STYLE] simultaneously, press the A
#-1 
key.
When you start playing, use the [MASTER VOL-
UME] to adjust the volume of the entire keyboard 
sound. 
Intelligent Acoustic Control (IAC)
With this function, the sound quality of this instru-
ment is automatically adjusted and controlled accord-
ing to the overall volume. Even when the volume is 
low, you can hear both low sounds and high sounds 
clearly. 
To turn on/off the IAC: 
While holding down [METRONOME/RHYTHM] 
and [PIANIST STYLE] simultaneously, press the 
G3 key to turn on or G #3 to turn off. 
Default setting:  on
To adjust the IAC Depth: 
While holding down [METRONOME/RHYTHM] 
and [PIANIST STYLE] simultaneously, press the 
E3 key to decrease by one, F #3 to increase by one, 
or F3 to reset to 0 (default).  
Setting range: -3 – 0 – +3
Because of the simple, piano-like design of this instru-
ment, there are a minimum of panel controls, and 
most settings are made using the keys of the keyboard. 
When you turn a function on or off, or change a set-
ting, the instrument produces a sound to confirm the 
change. There are three types of sounds used: an 
ascending sound for on, a descending sound for off, 
and clicks for other settings. For the list of functions 
assigned to the buttons and keys, see “Quick Opera-
tion Guide” on page 28, 29.
Setting the Operation Confirmation Sounds 
On or Off
You can enable or disable the Operation Confirmation 
Sounds as desired. 
While holding [DEMO/SONG], press the A-1 key. 
Every time you press the A-1 key, the setting is 
switched on or off. 
Default setting:  on
Since this instrument is equipped with two 
[PHONES] jacks, you can connect two sets of stan-
dard stereo headphones. If you are using only one set 
of headphones, insert a plug into either jack, shutting 
off the speakers.
• If your digital piano is connected to other equipment such 
as amplifiers, speakers, or a computer but you do not 
intend to use it for 30 minutes, we recommend that you 
turn off all devices as described in their owner’s manuals . 
Doing so eliminates the risk of damage to the other equip-
ment. If you do not want the instrument to turn off auto-
matically when connected to other equipment, disable the 
Auto Power Off function.

The [SUSTAIN] jack is for connecting the included 
footswitch, which works in the same way as a damper 
pedal on an acoustic piano. Also an optional FC3A 
foot pedal or FC4A or FC5 footswitch can be con-
nected to this jack. The FC3A lets you use the Half 
Pedal function.Half Pedal function (for FC3A and LP-5A/LP-
5AWH)
If you are playing the piano with sustain and want 
a clearer, less muddled sound (especially in the 
bass register), let up on your foot from the pedal to 
half position or higher.
The [PEDAL UNIT] jack is for connecting an 
optional LP-5A/LP-5AWH pedal unit. When connect-
ing the pedal unit, make sure to also assemble the unit 
on an optional keyboard stand (L-85/L-85WH).
Damper (Right) Pedal
Pressing this pedal will sustain notes longer. Releas-
ing this pedal immediately stops (damps) any sus-
tained notes. A “half-pedal” function of this pedal 
creates partial sustain effects, depending on how far 
down you press the pedal.   Damper Resonance
This function simulates the sustain sound produced 
via the damper pedal on a grand piano. 
To turn Damper Resonance on/off: 
While holding down [METRONOME/RHYTHM] 
and [PIANIST STYLE] simultaneously, press the 
A3 key (on) or A #3 key (off).
Default setting: on
Sostenuto (Center) Pedal
If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press 
the sostenuto pedal while the note(s) are held, those 
notes will sustain as long as you hold the pedal (as if 
the damper pedal had been pressed) but all subse-
quently played notes will not be sustained. This makes 
it possible to sustain a chord, for example, while other 
notes are played “staccato.”
Soft (Left) Pedal
The soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly 
changes the timbre of notes played while the pedal is 
pressed. The soft pedal will not affect notes that are 
already playing when it is pressed.
Using a Footswitch
• Do not press the footswitch when turning the power on. Doing this changes 
the recognized polarity of the footswitch, resulting in reversed footswitch 
operation.
• Make sure that power is OFF when connecting or disconnecting the foot- switch or pedal.
Using the Optional Pedal Unit
• Make sure that power is OFF when connecting or disconnecting the pedal unit.

Selecting a Voice
Voice NameDescription
GRAND PIANO
Sampled from a concer t grand piano. It uses 
different samples depending on the playing 
strength and produces smoother tonal 
changes. Suitable not only for classical com-
positions but also for any style music.
BRIGHT GRANDBright piano sound. Clear tone helps the 
sound to “cut through” when playing in an 
ensemble.
MELLOW 
GRAND
Warm and soft piano sound. Good for play-
ing ballads.
DX E.PIANO An electronic piano sound created by FM 
synthesis. Good for standard popular 
music.
STAGE 
E.PIANO Vintage electric piano sound of hammer-
struck metallic “tines.” Soft tone when 
played lightly, and an aggressive tone 
when played hard.
VINTAGE 
E.PIANO Another vintage electric piano sound dif-
ferent from STAGE E.PIANO often heard 
in rock and popular music.
JAZZ ORGAN A “tonewheel” type electric organ. Often 
heard in jazz and rock music. When the 
separately sold Pedal Unit (LP-5A/LP-
5AWH) is connected, the rotary speed of 
the “ROTARY SP” effect can be switched 
by using the left pedal.
PIPE ORGAN A typical pipe organ sound (8 feet + 4 feet 
+ 2 feet). Good for sacred music from the 
Baroque period.
ROCK ORGAN
Bright and edgy electric organ sound. Good 
for rock music. When the separately sold 
Pedal Unit (LP-5A/LP-5AWH) is connected, 
the rotary speed of the “ROTARY SP” effect 
can be switched by using the left pedal.
VIBRAPHONEPlayed with relatively soft mallets. The tone 
becomes more metallic the harder you play.
STRINGSStereo-sampled, large-scale strings 
ensemble with realistic reverb. Try combin-
ing this Voice with piano in the Dual mode.
HARPSI-
CHORD The definitive instrument for baroque 
music. Authentic harpsichord sound, with 
plucked strings, no touch response, and 
characteristic key-release sound.
WOOD BASS An upright bass played fingerstyle. Ideal 
for jazz and Latin music.
E. BASS For a wide range of music styles, jazz, 
rock, popular, and more.

Key Transposition
You can shift or transpose the pitch of the entire 
keyboard up or down in semitones. 
For example, if you set the transpose to “+5,” the 
key C will produce the pitch F. You could, therefore, 
play a song as if it was in C major and the digital 
piano would transpose it to the key of F major. 
Setting range: -6 (F#4) – 0 (C5) – +6 (F#5) F

#5 – F#5 Transposes the pitch up (to play higher notes than the actual 
keys).
Fine-tuning the Pitch
Using the Tuning setting, you can fine tune the 
pitch of the entire instrument. This can be 
extremely useful when playing your digital piano 
along with other instruments or recorded music. 
Setting range: 414.8 – 440.0 – 466.8 Hz  B-1 Resets the pitch to the default (A3 = 440.0 Hz).
