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.

• Use the speciﬁed adaptor (PA-3B, PA-3C or an equivalent recommended by

Yamaha) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in damage to the instrument

or overheating.

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

have accumulated on it.

• Do not place the AC adaptor 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 AC adaptor 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 adaptor 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.

• Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or during

• 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.

• Always make sure all batteries are inserted in conformity with the +/- polarity

markings. Failure to do so might result in overheating, ﬁre, or battery ﬂuid

leakage.

• Always replace all batteries at the same time. Do not use new batteries

together with old ones. Also, do not mix battery types, such as alkaline

batteries with manganese batteries, or batteries from different makers, or

different types of batteries from the same maker, since this can cause

overheating, ﬁre, or battery ﬂuid leakage.

• Do not dispose of batteries in ﬁre.

• Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are not intended to be charged.

•When the batteries run out, or if the instrument is not to be used for a long

Setting Up

Be sure to do the following operations BEFORE turning on the power.

Although the instrument will run either from an optional AC adaptor or batteries, Yamaha recommends use of an

AC adaptor whenever possible. An AC adaptor is more environmentally friendly than batteries and does not

deplete resources.

■ Using an AC Power Adaptor

q Make sure that the power of the instrument is off

(the backlit display is off).

w Connect the AC adaptor (PA-3B, PA-3C or other

adaptor speciﬁcally recommended by Yamaha) to

the power supply jack.

e Plug the AC adaptor into an AC outlet.

■ Using Batteries

q Open the battery compartment cover located on the

instrument’s bottom panel.

w Insert the six new alkaline batteries, being careful

to follow the polarity markings on the side of the

compartment.

e Replace the compartment cover, making sure that it

locks ﬁrmly in place.

For battery operation the instrument requires six

1.5V “AA” size, LR6 or equivalent batteries. (Alka-

line batteries are recommended.) When battery

power becomes too low for proper operation, the

volume may be reduced, the sound may be dis-

torted, and other problems may occur. When this

happens, make sure to replace all batteries, follow-

ing the precautions listed below.

If necessary, also make sure to save all important

User data (see page 29), since custom panel set-

tings are lost when the batteries are removed.

Power Requirements

• Use ONLY a Yamaha PA-3B or PA-3C AC Power Adap-

tor (or other adaptor speciﬁcally recommended by

Yamaha) to power your instrument from the AC mains.

The use of other adaptors may result in irreparable

damage to both the adaptor and the instrument.

WARNING

• Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using the

instrument, or during electrical storms.

CAUTION

PA-3B or

PA-3C

AC outlet

w

e

•Never connect or disconnect the AC power adaptor when

the batteries are installed in the instrument and the power

is on. Doing so will turn the power off, possibly resulting

in loss of the data being transferred and the data cur-

rently in the transfer destination during transferring or

recording a data.

CAUTION

• Use alkaline batteries for this instrument. Other types of

batteries (including rechargeable batteries) may have

sudden drops of power when battery power becomes low,

possibly resulting in loss of data in the ﬂash memory.

• Make sure to install the batteries with the proper orienta-

tion, maintaining the correct polarity (as shown). Incor-

rect battery installation may result in heat, ﬁre and/or

leaking of corrosive chemicals.

• When the batteries run down, replace them with a com-

plete set of six new batteries. NEVER mix old and new

batteries. Do not use different kinds of batteries (e.g.

alkaline and manganese) at the same time.

• If the instrument is not to be in use for a long time,

remove the batteries from it, in order to prevent possible

ﬂuid leakage from the battery.

• Please use the power adaptor when transferring data to

ﬂash memory. Batteries (including rechargeable types)

can be drained rapidly by this type of operation. If the bat-

teries do become drained during a data transfer, both the

data being transferred and the data currently in the trans-

fer destination will be lost.

CAUTION

Setting Up

PSR-E303/YPT-300 Owner’s Manual 9

Make all necessary connections BEFORE turning the power on.

The PSR-E303/YPT-300 speakers are automatically

shut off when a plug is inserted into this jack. The

PHONES/OUTPUT jack also functions as an external

output.

You can connect the PHONES/OUTPUT jack to a

keyboard ampliﬁer, stereo system, mixer, tape

recorder, or other line-level audio device to send the

instrument’s output signal to that device.

The sustain function lets you produce a natural sustain

as you play by pressing an optional footswitch. Plug

the Yamaha FC4 or FC5 footswitch into this jack and

use it to switch sustain on and off.

The instrument also features MIDI terminals, allow-

ing you to interface the instrument with other MIDI

instruments or computers. (For more information, see

page 58.)

Turn down the volume by turning the [MASTER

VOLUME] control to the left and press the

[STANDBY/ON] switch to turn on the power. Press-

ing the switch again turns the power off.

Backup data in the ﬂash memory (page 29) is loaded

to the instrument when the power is turned on. If no

backup data exists on ﬂash memory, all instrument

settings are restored to the initial factory defaults

when the power is turned on.

Connecting headphones (PHONES/OUTPUT Jack)

Connecting a footswitch (SUSTAIN Jack)

•Avoid listening with the headphones at high volume for

long periods of time; doing so may not only result in ear

fatigue, it may be damaging to your hearing.

WARNING

•To prevent damage to the speakers, set the volume of the

external devices at the minimum setting and turn power

off the devices before connecting them. Failure to

observe these precautions may result in electric shock or

equipment damage. Also, be sure to set the volumes of all

devices at their minimum levels and gradually raise the

volume controls while playing the instrument to set the

desired listening level.

CAUTION

• Make sure that the footswitch plug is properly connected to

the SUSTAIN jack before turning on the power.

• Do not press the footswitch while turning the power on. Doing

this changes the recognized polarity of the footswitch, result-

ing in reversed footswitch operation.

NOTE

Using the MIDI Terminals

Turn on the power

MIDI instrument

• MIDI cables (sold separately) must be used for connecting to

MIDI devices. They can be bought at music stores, etc.

NOTE

• When using a power adaptor, even when the power is off,

a small amount of electricity is still being consumed by

the instrument. When you are not using the instrument for

a long time, make sure to unplug the AC power adaptor

from the wall AC outlet, and/or remove the batteries from

the instrument.

CAUTION

•Never attempt to turn the power off when a “Writing!”

message is shown in the display. Doing so can damage

the ﬂash memory and result in a loss of data.
