the instrument for a long time, make sure to unplug the power cord from the wall

AC outlet.

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:

• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators. Also,

do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, or place heavy objects on

it.

• 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 (page 40) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in

damage to the instrument or overheating.

• (YDP-164, YDP-S54) Use only the supplied power cord/plug.

• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have

accumulated on it.

• This instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not open the instrument

or attempt to disassemble or modify the internal components in any way. If it

should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it

inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

• Do not expose the instrument to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet

conditions, or place on it any containers (such as vases, bottles or glasses)

containing liquids which might spill into any openings. If any liquid such as

water seeps into the instrument, turn off the power immediately and unplug the

power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument 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:

• 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.

• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold

the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.

• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used for

extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.

• Read carefully the attached documentation explaining the assembly process.

Failure to assemble the instrument in the proper sequence might result in

damage to the instrument or even injury.

• (YDP-S54) Be sure to attach the anti-fall brackets to the instrument, to ensure

stability. Failure to do so might result in damage to the instrument or even injury.

• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally

fall over.

• When transporting or moving the instrument, always use two or more people.

Attempting to lift the instrument by yourself may damage your back, result in

other injury, or cause damage to the instrument itself.

• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to prevent damage

to the cables or injury to anyone who might trip over them.

• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily

accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power

switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is

turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When

you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power

cord from the wall AC outlet.

• 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.

• 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.

• Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the key cover or instrument. Also

take care that the key cover does not pinch your finger.

• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the key

cover, panel or keyboard. This could cause physical injury to you or others,

damage to the instrument or other property, or operational failure.

• (YDP-S54) Do not apply excessive force when closing the key cover. A key cover

equipped with the SOFT-CLOSE™ mechanism closes the cover slowly. Applying

excessive force to the key cover when closing it could damage the SOFT-

CLOSE™ mechanism, and possibly result in injury to your hands and fingers

caught under the closing key cover.

• 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 use the instrument/device or headphones 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.

• Do not place the bench in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall

over.

• Do not play carelessly with or stand on the bench. Using it as a tool or stepladder

or for any other purpose might result in accident or injury.

• Only one person should sit on the bench at a time, in order to prevent the

possibility of accident or injury.

• If the bench screws become loose due to extensive long-term use, tighten them

periodically using the specified tool in order to prevent the possibility of accident

or injury.

• Keep special watch over any small children so that they don’t fall off the rear of

the bench. Since the bench does not have a backrest, unsupervised use may

result in accident or injury.

Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

Even when the [ ] (Standby/On) switch is in standby status (power lamp is off),

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

power cord from the wall AC outlet.

• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the

instrument, since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.

 Maintenance

• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft and dry/slightly

damp cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, alcohol,

cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.

• During extreme changes in temperature or humidity,

condensation may occur and water may collect on the

surface of the instrument. If water is left, the wooden parts

may absorb the water and be damaged. Make sure to wipe

any water off immediately with a soft cloth.

Optimizer effect recreates a natural distance or the

sense of physical space between your ears and the

instrument, just as when playing an acoustic piano.

Damper Pedal (Right)

Pressing this pedal will sustain notes longer.

Releasing this pedal immediately stops (damps)

any sustained notes. This pedal also features a

“half-pedal” function that creates partial sustain

effects, depending on how far down you press the

pedal.

Sostenuto Pedal (Center)

Pressing this pedal while holding the notes will

sustain the pressed notes (as if the Damper Pedal

had been pressed), but all subsequently played

notes will not be sustained. This makes it possible

to sustain a chord or single low note, for example,

while the other notes are played “staccato.”

Soft Pedal (Left)

Pressing this pedal will reduce the volume and slightly change the timbre of the

notes. The notes played before this pedal is pressed are not affected.

The Damper Resonance effect simulates the sustain sound of the damper pedal on a grand piano, as if you

were pressing the damper pedal and playing the keyboard. This effect is applied only to the Piano Voices

(page 20).

To turn on the Damper Resonance:

While holding [PIANO/VOICE], press the C#3 key.

To turn off the Damper Resonance:

While holding [PIANO/VOICE], press the C3 key.

Using the Pedals

When you press the damper

pedal here, this note and the

notes you play before you release

the pedal sustain longer.

When you press the sostenuto

pedal here while holding the

note, the note will sustain as

long as you hold the pedal.

NOTE

If the damper pedal doesn’t

work, make sure that the pedal

cord is properly plugged into

the main unit (page 39).

Half-pedal function

This function allows you to vary

the sustain length depending

on how far the pedal is

pressed. The farther down you

press the pedal, the more the

sound sustains. For example, if

you press the damper pedal

and all notes you are playing

sound a bit murky and loud

with too much sustain, you can

release the pedal half way or

higher to decrease the sustain

(murkiness).

NOTE

While the sostenuto pedal is

held, the organ and strings

Voices sound continuously

without decay after the notes

have been released.

NOTE

When Jazz Organ Voice

(page 20) is selected,

pressing the left pedal

switches between fast/slow

Appendix

Troubleshooting

Problem Possible Cause and Solution

Power suddenly and unexpectedly turns off.

This is normal and the Auto Power Off function may have been activated

(page 15). If desired, disable the Auto Power Off function.

The instrument does not turn on.

The plugs are not properly connected. Make sure that the DC plug is

securely inserted into the DC IN jack on the instrument, and that the AC

plug is securely inserted to the AC outlet (page 14).

A click or pop is heard when the power is

turned on or off.

This is normal when electrical current is being applied to the instrument.

Noise is heard from the speakers or

headphones.

The noise may be due to interference caused by the use of a mobile phone

in close proximity to this instrument. Turn off the mobile phone, or move it

further away from this instrument.

Noise is heard from the instrument’s speakers or

headphones when using the instrument with a

smart device, such as an iPhone/iPad.

When you use the instrument along with the application on your smart

device, we recommend that you set “Airplane Mode” to “ON” on your smart

device in order to avoid noise caused by communication. While Bluetooth

is connected, setting “Airplane Mode” to “ON” disconnects Bluetooth;

however, the connection can be restored by reconnecting again.

The overall volume is low, or no sound is heard.

The Master Volume is set too low. Set it to an appropriate level using the

[MASTER VOLUME] knob (page 11).

Make sure a pair of headphones or conversion adaptor is not connected to

the [PHONES] jack (page 15).

The Speaker setting is “Off.” Set the Speaker to “Normal” or “On” (page 15).

Make sure that Local Control is On. For details, refer to the “MIDI

Reference” (page 9).

Pedals do not function.

The pedal cord may not be securely connected to the [TO PEDAL] jack. Be

sure to insert the pedal cord all the way until the metal part of the cord plug

disappears from view (pages 36, 39).

The damper pedal does not function as

expected.

The damper pedal was pressed when the power was turned on. This is not

a malfunction; release the pedal and press it again to reset the function.
