Power Outlet  
Your Digital Piano runs on standard household power.  
Be sure to turn off power whenever you are not using  
the Digital Piano.  
Using Batteries  
You can use eight AA-size batteries for power.  
Use alkaline batteries.  
Never use oxyride or any other nickel based  
batteries.  
Using an AC Adaptor  
Use only the AC adaptor (JEITA Standard, with unified  
polarity plug) that comes with this Digital Piano. Use  
of a different type of AC adaptor can cause  
malfunction of the Digital Piano.  
1.  
On the back of the Digital Piano on the right,  
loosen the two screws that secure the battery  
cover in place.  
Specified AC Adaptor: AD-A12150LW  
The screws are designed so they can be loosened  
only, and not come completely out.  
Use the supplied power cord to connect the AC  
adaptor as shown in the illustration below.

3.  
Slide the battery cover away from you to  
remove it.  
DC 12V terminal  
AC adaptor  
• Configuration and type depends  
on your geographic location.  
Note the following important precautions to avoid  
damage to the power cord.  
During Use  
Never pull on the cord with excessive force.  
Never repeatedly pull on the cord.  
Never twist the cord at the base of the plug or  
connector.  
Load eight AA-size batteries into the battery  
compartment.  
Make sure the positive +and negative -ends of the  
batteries are facing as shown in the illustration.  
During Movement  
Before moving the Digital Piano, be sure to unplug  
the AC adaptor from the power outlet.  
During Storage  
4.  
5.  
Replace the battery cover and slide it towards  
you (the reverse of what you did in step 2) to  
close it.  
Make sure that the tabs of the battery cover engage  
with the tabs of the Digital Piano.  
Loop and bundle the power cord, but never wind it  
around the AC adaptor.  
IMPORTANT!  
• Never connect the AC adaptor (JEITA Standard,  
with unified polarity plug) that comes with this Digital  
Piano to any other device besides this Digital Piano.  
Doing so creates the risk of malfunction.  
• Make sure the Digital Piano is turned off before  
plugging in or unplugging the AC adaptor.  
• The AC adaptor will become warm to the touch after  
very long use. This is normal and does not indicate  
malfunction.  
Tabs  
Secure the battery cover by tightening the  
two screws you loosened in step 1.

Low Battery Indication  
The following shows the approximate battery life.  
Approximately 3 hours* (alkaline batteries, using the  
optional CASIO CP-16 headphones)  
* Using a high volume setting, playing in very low  
temperatures, and certain other playing conditions  
can shorten battery life.  
Low battery power is indicated by the

plan to use the Digital Piano for a long time or if  
there is a lightning storm in your area, be sure to  
unplug the AC adaptor from the power outlet.  
Auto Power Off  
The Digital Piano turns off automatically to avoid  
wasting power if no operation is performed for a preset  
amount of time. The Auto Power Off trigger time is  
about six minutes under battery power and about four  
hours under AC adaptor power.  
You can disable Auto Power Off by turning off the  
“Auto Power Off” setting as described under  
“System Settings” (page E-27).

Connections  
Connecting Headphones  
Connecting a Pedal  
Your Digital Piano has two pedal terminals.  
A variety of different functions can be assigned to a  
pedal.  
Under initial factory settings, the damper pedal*  
function is assigned to DAMPER/PEDAL1.  
* Pressing the damper pedal while playing causes  
notes you play on the keyboard to be sustained  
longer.  
IMPORTANT!  
• Before connecting headphones, be sure to use the  
Digital Piano’s VOLUME controller to turn the  
volume down to a low level. After connecting, you  
can adjust the volume to the level you want.  
Back  
PHONES jacks  
Whenever a piano tone is selected, pressing this  
pedal will activate the Digital Piano’s Damper  
Resonance effect, which causes notes to resonate  
in the same way they do when the damper pedal  
on an acoustic piano is pressed.  
Commercially  
available headphones  
For details, see the separate “Tutorial”.  
Standard plug  
To connect to the pedal jack  
Depending on the type of operation you want the  
pedal (SP-3) to perform, connect the pedal’s cable  
either to the Digital Piano’s DAMPER/PEDAL1 jack or  
PEDAL2 jack. If you want to use both operations  
(jacks) at the same time, you need to purchase another  
optionally available pedal.  
Connect commercially available headphones to the  
PHONES jacks. To protect your hearing, make sure  
that you do not set the volume level too high when  
using headphones.  
NOTE  
Back  
Be sure to push the headphones plug into the  
PHONES jacks as far as it will go. If you don’t, you  
may hear sound from only one side of the  
headphones.  
DAMPER/PEDAL1, PEDAL2 jacks  
If the plug of the headphones you are using does not  
match the PHONES jacks, use the applicable  
commercially available adaptor plug.

connect to the LINE IN R and LINE IN L/MONO  
terminals. Use commercially available connection cords  
that match the equipment being connected to.  
Connecting a cord to LINE IN L/MONO only will  
cause the left and right channels to be mixed and output  
from both LINE OUT R and LINE OUT L/MONO  
.
IMPORTANT!  
Bundled and Optional  
Accessories  
• Whenever connecting something to the Digital  
Piano, first use the VOLUME controller to set the  
volume to a low level. After connecting, you can  
adjust the volume to the level you want.  
• Whenever you connect any device to the Digital  
Piano, be sure to read the user documentation that  
comes with the device.  
Use only accessories that are specified for use with this  
Digital Piano.  
Use of unauthorized accessories creates the risk of fire,  
electric shock, and personal injury.

Using Built-in Tones  
Using the Bender Wheel  
You can use the bender wheel to slide the pitch of notes  
smoothly upwards and downwards. This capability  
makes it possible to reproduce saxophone and electric  
guitar choking effects.  
Adding a Pitch Bend Effect  
1.  
While playing a note on the  
keyboard, rotate the  
1
(BENDER) wheel on the left of the  
keyboard upwards or downwards.  
The amount the note bends depends on  
how much you rotate the pitch bend  
wheel.  
Do not have the pitch bend wheel  
rotated as you turn on the Digital Piano.  
NOTE  
You also can configure pitch bend wheel operation  
by specifying the amount of pitch change at  
maximum rotation in either direction. For more  
information, see the separate “Tutorial”.  
Modifying Notes with the  
Modulation Wheel, Knobs and  
Sliders  
You can modify notes even while you are playing. Each  
tone is preset with effects that are appropriate for it.

While playing on the keyboard  
with your right hand, you can  
operate the  
(MODULATION)  
2
wheel,  
knobs (K1 through K4),  
3
and sliders  
(S1) through  
4

The amount effect applied depends on  
how much the applicable control is  
moved.  
Do not have the modulation wheel, knobs, or sliders  
in a moved position as you turn on the Digital Piano.  
NOTE  
You can change the effects and functions assigned to  
the modulation wheel, knobs, and sliders. For more

The Phrase Sequencer is a great way to record musical  
phrases that suddenly pop into your mind for later  
playback.  
You can record a new phrase or overdub onto an  
existing phrase to create a user phrase. There is  
memory for storage of up to 1,000 user phrases  
(phrase number 000 to 999) for later recall when you  
need them.  
Recording a New Phrase  
You can record up to approximately 1,600 notes for a  
single phrase. Also, recorded wheel, knob, and  
slider operations significantly reduce the remaining  
number of notes available for recording.  
Note that you cannot record a phrase while an  
Audio Recorder (page E-23) operation is in progress.  
In addition to what you play on the keyboard, your  
pedal, wheel, knob, and slider operations are also  
recorded as part of phrase. Note, however, that  
pedal, modulation wheel, knob, and/or slider  
operations may not be recorded when certain  
functions are assigned to pedals, knobs, and/or  
sliders. For more information, see the separate  
“Tutorial”.

number of times until its lamp starts to flash.  
You can choose either of two different playback  
options: one-time playback (loop off) or repeat  
playback (loop on).  
Overdubbing during looped playback is supported.  
A Song Sequencer function lets you combine phrase  
data into song data. With this Digital Piano, song  
data is referred as a “song”. For details, see  
“Creating a Song (Song Sequencer)” (page E-21).  
If OVDB (overdubbing) is displayed as the “Rec  
Mode” setting, use the

buttons to change it to NEW (new phrase). This will  
enter the new phrase recording standby mode.  
Note quantize and end measure settings can be  
configured as required.  
Note Quantize (Note Qntz)  
When recording keyboard play, there may be  
cases when your timing strays a bit. The note  
quantize settings described below can be used  
to correct the timing of keyboard play  
automatically and correct the timing of notes  
you play on the keyboard. (Note that only key  
press timing is correct. The timing of other  
operations such as key release, and wheel,

Performing a record operation with the Digital Piano’s  
audio recorder stores the data as a WAV file  
(automatically assigned a name from TAKE00.WAV to  
TAKE99.WAV) in the MUSICDAT folder (which is  
created automatically by the format operation) on the  
USB flash drive. You also can connect a USB flash drive  
to a computer and change the names of audio data  
(WAV) files to the format “TAKExx.WAV”*, and move  
them to the MUSICDAT folder. Then you will be able  
to play them back on the Digital Piano.

Port Handling Precautions  
IMPORTANT!  
IMPORTANT!  
• When you plug in a USB flash drive, the Digital  
Piano initially needs to “mount” the USB flash drive  
and prepare for data exchange. Note that Digital  
Piano operations are momentarily disabled while a  
USB flash drive mounting sequence is being  
performed. While the mounting process is in  
progress, the message “Mounting Media” will be  
displayed on the display. It may take up to 10 or 20  
seconds or even longer for a USB flash drive to be  
mounted. Do not attempt to perform any operation  
on the Digital Piano while a mounting sequence is in  
progress. A USB flash drive needs to be mounted  
each time it is connected to the Digital Piano.  
• If you turn on the Digital Piano while USB flash drive  
is plugged into the Digital Piano, the mount operation  
described above will need to be performed, and  
Digital Piano operation will be disabled during that  
time.  
• Be sure to observe the precautions provided in the  
documentation that comes with the USB flash drive.  
• Avoid using a USB flash drive under the following  
conditions. Such conditions can corrupt data stored  
on the USB flash drive.  
– Areas subjected to high temperature, high  
humidity, or corrosive gas  
– Areas subjected to strong electrostatic charge and  
digital noise  
• Never remove the USB flash drive while data is  
being written to or loaded from it. Doing so can  
corrupt the data on the USB flash drive and damage  
the USB flash drive port.  
• Never insert anything besides a USB flash drive into  
the USB flash drive port. Doing so creates the risk of  
malfunction.  
• A USB flash drive can become warm after very long  
use. This is normal and does not indicate  
malfunction.  
• Never plug any other device besides a USB flash  
drive into the USB flash drive port.  
• Static electricity conducted to the USB flash drive  
port from your hand or from a USB flash drive can  
cause malfunction of the Digital Piano. If this  
happens, turn the Digital Piano off and then back on  
again.

Even though I play on  
different ranges of the  
keyboard, the notes do not  
change octaves.  
The ranges of certain tones are limited, which means that octaves change normally up to a  
certain low note or high note. With such a tone, the notes of the lowest octave will be repeated  
to the left of the lowest possible note, and the highest octave will be repeated to the right of  
the highest possible note. This is due do limitations in the range of the original musical  
instrument for each tone, and does not indicate malfunction of the Digital Piano.
