5. Plug the AC adapter’s other end into
a standard AC outlet.
Using Vehicle Battery Power
You can power the keyboard from a ve-
hicle’s 12V power source (such as a cig-
arette-lighter socket) using a 9V, 800-
mA AC adapter and a size M Adapta-
plug adapter (neither supplied). Both are
available at your local RadioShack
store.
Cautions:
You must use a power
source that supplies 9V DC
and delivers at least 800
mA. Its center tip must be set to
negative and its plug must fit the
keyboard's
DC 9V
jack. Using an
adapter that does not meet these
specifications could damage the
keyboard or the adapter.
• Always connect the DC adapter to
the keyboard before you connect it
to the power source. When you fin-
ish, disconnect the adapter from the
power source before you disconnect
it from the keyboard.
Follow these steps to connect a DC
adapter to the keyboard.
1. Slide
POWER/MODE
to
OFF
.
2. Plug the DC adapter’s barrel plug
into the cable so it reads – TIP.
3. Set the DC adapter’s voltage switch
to 9 volts.
4. Connect the DC adapter’s barrel
plug to the
DC 9V
jack on the back of
the keyboard.
5. Plug the DC adapter’s other end into
your vehicle’s cigarette-lighter
socket.
CONNECTING
HEADPHONES
To listen to your keyboard without dis-
turbing others, you can connect an op-
tional pair of stereo headphones with a
1
/
4
-inch (6.4-mm) plug. Your local Ra-
dioShack store sells a wide selection of
headphones.
Insert the headphones’ plug into the
PHONES/OUTPUT
jack on the back of
the keyboard.
Note
: Connecting headphones discon-
nects the keyboard’s built-in speakers.
Listening Safely
To protect your hearing, follow these
guidelines when you use headphones.
• Set the volume to the lowest setting
before you begin listening. After you
begin listening, adjust the volume to
a comfortable level.
• Do not listen at extremely high vol-
ume levels. Extended high-volume
listening can lead to permanent
hearing loss.
• Once you set the volume, do not
increase it. Over time, your ears
adapt to the volume level, so a vol-
ume level that does not cause dis-
comfort might still damage your
hearing.
