Connecting Headphones or Optional Speaker
Since the Tyros3 has no built-in speakers, you’ll need to monitor the sound of the instrument by using external 
equipment. Connect a set of headphones to the [PHONES] jack or use the speaker system, such as the optional 
TRS-MS02 speakers. For instructions on installing the TRS-MS02 to the Tyros3, see page 100. For instructions on 
connecting other speakers, see page 88.
Shown here is the optional 
L-7S Keyboard Stand.

Starting Up
This section contains information about setting up your Tyros3 and preparing to play. Be sure to read through 
this section carefully before turning the power on.
1Make sure the POWER ON/OFF switch on the Tyros3 
is set to OFF.
2Connect the supplied power cord to the AC IN termi-
nal on the instrument’s rear panel.
3Connect the other end of the power cord to an AC 
outlet.
Make sure your Tyros3 meets the voltage requirement for the coun-
try or region in which it is being used.
Before you switch your Tyros3 on or off, make sure that the MASTER 
VOLUME and INPUT VOLUME are set to “MIN” and the volume of 
any connected audio equipment is turned down.
1Press the [POWER ON/OFF] switch on the rear 
panel.
2Use the [MASTER VOLUME] dial to adjust the vol-
ume to an appropriate level.
Power Supply
Make sure your Tyros3 is rated for the AC voltage 
supplied in the area in which it is to be used (as 
listed on the bottom). Connecting the unit to the 
wrong AC supply can cause serious damage to the 
internal circuitry and may even pose a shock haz-
ard!
Use only the AC power cord supplied with the 
Tyros3. If the supplied cord is lost or damaged and 
needs to be replaced, contact your Yamaha dealer. 
The use of an inappropriate replacement can pose 
a fire and shock hazard!
The type of AC power cord provided with the Tyros3 
may be different depending on the country in which 
it is purchased (a third prong may be provided for 
grounding purposes). Improper connection of the 
grounding conductor can create the risk of electri-
cal shock. Do NOT modify the plug provided with 
the Tyros3. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a 
proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Do 
not use a plug adapter which defeats the grounding 
conductor.
WARNING
WARNING
WARNING
Turning the Power On
In order to avoid possible damage to the speakers 
or other connected electronic equipment, always 
switch on the power of the Tyros3 before switching 
on the power of the amplified speakers or mixer 
and amplifier. Likewise, always switch off the 
power off the Tyros3 after switching off the power of 
the amplified speakers or mixer and amplifier.
Even when the POWER switch is turned off, elec-
tricity is still flowing to the instrument at the mini-
mum level. When you are not using the instrument 
for a long time, make sure you unplug the power 
cord from the wall AC outlet.

Unfasten the lock located at the back of the display panel. Then lift the panel and tilt it toward you. The panel will click 
as you tilt in back; these clicks are the four latched positions. Once you’ve set it to a satisfactory position, release the 
panel. It will gently fall back to the nearest latched position.
To return the panel to its closed and locked position, gently pull it back toward you until 
the position is vertical, then push it down until it locks into place.
