IMPORTANT

—Check your power supply—

Make sure that your local AC

mains voltage matches the

voltage specified on the name

plate on the bottom panel. In

some areas a voltage selector

may be provided on the bottom

panel of the main keyboard unit

near the power cord. Make sure

that the voltage selector is set for

the voltage in your area. The

voltage selector is set at 240V

when the unit is initially shipped.

To change the setting use a

"minus" screwdriver to rotate the

selector dial so that the correct

voltage appears next to the

pointer on the panel.

For information on assembling

the keyboard stand, refer to the

instructions at the end of this

manual.

WICHTIG

—Überprüfen Sie Ihren

Netzanschluss—

Vergewissern Sie sich, dass die

Spannung in Ihrem örtlichen

Stromnetz mit der Spannung

übereinstimmt, die auf dem

Typenschild auf der Unterseite

des Instruments angegeben ist. In

bestimmten Regionen ist auf der

Unterseite des Keyboards in der

Nähe des Netzkabels ein

Spannungswähler angebracht.

Vergewissern Sie sich, dass der

Spannungswähler auf die

Spannung Ihres lokalen

Stromnetzes eingestellt ist. Dieser

Spannungswähler ist bei

Auslieferung auf 240 V

eingestellt. Sie können die

Einstellung mit einem

Schlitzschraubenzieher ändern.

Drehen Sie dazu den

Wählschalter, bis der Pfeil auf

dem Instrument auf die richtige

Spannung zeigt.

Weitere Informationen über die

Montage des Keyboard-Ständers

erhalten Sie in den Anweisungen

am Ende dieses Handbuchs.

IMPORTANT

—Contrôler la source

d'alimentation—

Vérifiez que la tension spécifiée

sur le panneau inférieur

correspond à la tension du

secteur. Dans certaines régions,

l'instrument peut être équipé d'un

sélecteur de tension situé sur le

panneau inférieur du clavier à

proximité du cordon

d'alimentation.

Vérifiez que ce sélecteur est bien

réglé en fonction de la tension

secteur de votre région. Le

sélecteur de tension est réglé sur

240 V au départ d'usine. Pour

modifier ce réglage, utilisez un

tournevis à lame plate pour

tourner le sélecteur afin de mettre

l'indication correspondant à la

tension de votre région vis à vis

du repère triangulaire situé sur le

panneau.

Pour obtenir des informations sur

l'assemblage du support du

clavier, reportez-vous aux

instructions à la fin de ce manuel.

IMPORTANTE

—Verifique la alimentación de

corriente—

Asegúrese de que tensión de

alimentación de CA de su área

corresponde con la tensión

especificada en la placa de

características del panel inferior.

En algunas zonas puede haberse

incorporado un selector de

tensión en el panel inferior de la

unidad del teclado principal,

cerca del cable de alimentación.

Asegúrese de que el selector de

tensión esté ajustado a la tensión

de su área. El selector de tensión

se ajusta a 240V cuando la

unidad sale de fábrica. Para

cambiar el ajuste, emplee un

destornillador de cabeza "recta"

para girar el selector de modo

que aparezca la tensión correcta

al lado del indicador del panel.

Para información sobre el

montaje del soporte del teclado,

PRECAUTIONS

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING

* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

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:

• Only use the voltage speciﬁed as correct for the instrument. The required

voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.

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

accumulated on it.

• Use only the supplied power cord/plug.

• Do not place the power 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit.

A burning item may fall over and cause a ﬁre.

• If the power 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 electric plug from the outlet, and 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:

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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 cables.

• 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. 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.

• In the case of a model with a polished ﬁnish, gently remove dust and dirt with a

soft cloth. Do not wipe too hard since small particles of dirt can scratch the

instrument's ﬁnish.

• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not use

paint thinners, solvents, cleaning ﬂuids, or chemical-impregnated wiping

cloths.

•Take care that the key cover does not pinch your ﬁngers, and do not insert a

ﬁnger or hand in any gaps on the key cover or instrument.

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

cover, 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.

• In the case of a model with a polished ﬁnish, bumping the surface of the

instrument with metal, porcelain, or other hard objects can cause the ﬁnish to

crack or peel. Use caution.

• 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 step-

ladder 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 included tool.

Saving and backing up your data

• The panel settings and certain other types of data will be lost if the power is

turned off before they have been saved. Be sure to save (back up) data you want

to keep to the internal Flash Memory before turning off the power (page 55).

Keep in mind that this data is for temporary backup purposes and may be

inadvertently lost due to malfunction or incorrect operation. Make sure to save

all your important data to computer for permanent safekeeping (page 62).

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.

Panel Controls and Terminals

The Yamaha Clavinova CLP-240/230 digital piano provides natural, expressive grand piano sound and playability, and

features Yamaha’s original “AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling (CLP-240)/AWM Stereo Sampling (CLP-230)” tone-genera-

tion technology for rich, musical voices.

The CLP-240/230 Grand Piano 1 and 2 voices feature samples painstakingly recorded from a full concert grand piano.

The CLP-240 Grand Piano 1 voice features three velocity-switched samples (Dynamic Sampling), special “Sustain Sam-

pling” (page 51) that samples the unique resonance of an acoustic grand piano’s soundboard and strings when the

damper pedal is pressed, and “Keyoff Samples” that add the subtle sound produced when the keys are released.

The CLP-240/230 also utilizes a “GH3 (Graded Hammer 3)” Keyboard that varies the key weight according to the key

range. Moreover, this specially crafted keyboard lets you use techniques only possible on grand pianos, such as playing the

same note successively and having the sounds blend smoothly even without use of the damper pedal, or playing the same

key quickly and having perfect articulation without the sound cutting off unnaturally. With these features, the CLP-240/

230 comes much closer to the sound of a true acoustic piano.

Insert the plugs at the ends of the cord, one into the AC INLET on the Clavinova, and the other into a standard AC

outlet.

In some areas, a plug adaptor may be provided to match the pin conﬁguration of the AC wall outlets in your area.

CAUTION

Make sure your CLP-240/230 is rated for the AC voltage supplied in the area in which it is to be used (voltage rating appears

on the name plate on the bottom panel). In some areas, a voltage selector may be provided on the bottom panel of the main

keyboard unit near the power cord. Make sure that the voltage selector is set for the voltage in your area. Connecting the unit

to the wrong AC supply can cause serious damage to the internal circuitry and may even pose a shock hazard!

Use only the AC power cord supplied with the CLP-240/230. 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 CLP-240/230 may be different depending on the country in which it is pur-

chased. (In some areas a plug adaptor may be provided to match the pin conﬁguration of the AC wall outlets in your area.)

Procedure

NOTE

To learn characteristics of the

voices, listen to demo songs for

each voice (page 14). Refer to

“Preset Voice List” on page 71 for

more information on the charac-

teristics of each preset voice.

TERMINOLOGY

Voice:

On the Clavinova, a voice means

a “tone” or “tonal color.”

NOTE

You can control the loudness of a

voice by adjusting the force with

which you strike the keys,

although different playing styles

(touch sensitivities) have little or

no effect with certain musical

instruments.

Refer to “Preset Voice List” on

page 71.

Using the Pedals

The Clavinova has three foot pedals that produce a range

of expressive effects similar to those produced by the

pedals on an acoustic piano.

Damper (Right) Pedal

The damper pedal functions in the same way as a

damper pedal on an acoustic piano. When the damper

pedal is pressed, notes sustain longer. Releasing the pedal

immediately stops (damps) any sustained notes.

When you select the GRAND PIANO 1 voice on the CLP-

240, pressing the damper pedal activates the instrument’s

special “Sustain Samples” to accurately recreate the

unique resonance of an acoustic grand piano’s sound-

board and strings. A “half-pedal” effect lets you use the

damper pedal to create partial sustain effects, depending

on how far down you press the pedal.

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 subsequently

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.

NOTE

If the damper pedal doesn’t work,

make sure that the pedal cord is

properly plugged into the main

unit (page 67).

NOTE

The depth of the effect produced

by the “Sustain Samples” can be

adjusted via the “Pedal Func-

tions” (page 51) in Function

mode.

NOTE

When the DDE effect is on, you

can hear a simulation of the sus-

tain sound of the damper pedal

on a grand piano, as you press

the damper pedal and play the

keyboard (page 22).

When you press the damper

play before you release the

pedal have a longer sustain.

NOTE

Organ, string and choir voices will

continue to sound for as long as

the sostenuto pedal is depressed.

When you press the sostenu-

the note, the note will sustain

as long as you hold the pedal.

NOTE

The left pedal can be assigned to

song play/pause operation or

variation function (CLP-240) via

the “Left Pedal Mode” described

on page 51.
