Taking Care Of Your Clavinova
Your Clavinova is a fine musical instrument, and deserves the most careful treatment. Observe the fol-
lowing points and your Clavinova will sound and look great for many years.
1 Never open the case and touch or tamper with the
internal circuitry.
2 Always turn the POWER switch OFF after use,
and close the key cover to protect the keyboard.
3 Clean the cabinet and keys of your Clavinova only
with a clean, slightly damp cloth. A neutral
cleanser may be used if desired. Never use
abrasive cleansers, waxes, solvents or chemical
dust cloths since these can dull or damage the
finish.
4 Never place any vinyl products on your Clavinova.
Contact with vinyl can cause irreversible damage
to the finish.
5 Install your Clavinova in a place that is away from
direct sunlight, excessive humidity or heat.
6 Never apply excessive force to the controls,
connectors or other parts of your Clavinova, and
avoid scratching or bumping it with hard objects.
7 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.
● Name Plate Location
The CLP-411/511 name plate is located on the
bottom panel.
In order to make the most of your Clavinova’s performance potential and features, we urge you to read
this Owner’s Manual thoroughly, and keep it in a safe place for later reference.
