Start Guide
Step 1: Setting Up
Power Supply
1 Make sure the POWER switch on the MOTIF XS
is set to OFF.
2 Connect the supplied power cord to the AC IN
on the instrument’s rear panel.
3 Connect the other end of the power cord to an
AC outlet.
Make sure your MOTIF XS meets the voltage
requirement for the country or region in which it is being
used.
Make sure your MOTIF XS is rated for the AC voltage supplied in
the area in which it is to be used (as listed on the rear panel).
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 MOTIF XS. 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 MOTIF XS may be
different depending on the country in which it is purchased (a third
prong may be provided for grounding purposes). Improper
connection of the grounding conductor can create the risk of
electrical shock. Do NOT modify the plug provided with the MOTIF
XS. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed
by a qualified electrician. Do not use a plug adapter which defeats
the grounding conductor.
Connecting speakers or
headphones
Since the MOTIF XS has no built-in speakers, you will need
to monitor the sound of the instrument by using external
equipment. Connect a set of headphones, powered
speakers, or other playback equipment as required.
Turning the power on
Make sure the volume settings of the MOTIF XS and
external devices such as powered speakers are turned
down to the minimum before turning the power on.
When connecting the MOTIF XS to the powered speakers,
turn on the power switch of each device in the following
order.
• When turning the power on: First, the MOTIF XS, then the
connected powered speakers.
• When turning the power off: First, the connected
powered speakers, then the MOTIF XS.
Please keep in mind that the POWER switch is located at
the right side (from the view of the keyboard) of the AC IN
socket on the rear panel of the MOTIF XS.
Even when the POWER switch is turned off, electricity is still
flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not
using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the
power cord from the wall AC outlet.
