NOT modify this unit or commission others to do so unless

specifically authorized by Yamaha.

Product performance and/or safety standards may be

diminished. Claims filed under the expressed warranty may

be denied if the unit is/has been modified. Implied

warranties may also be affected.

SPECIFICATIONS SUBJECT TO CHANGE: The

information contained in this manual is believed to be

correct at the time of printing. However, Yamaha reserves

the right to change or modify any of the specifications

without notice or obligation to update existing units.

The exclamation point within the

equilateral triangle is intended to alert

the user to the present of important

operating and maintenance

(servicing) instructions in the literature

accompanying the product.

The lightning flash with arrowhead

symbol within the equilateral triangle

is intended to alert the user to the

presence of uninsulated "dangerous

voltage" within the product's

enclosure that may be of sufficient

magnitude to constitute a risk of

electrical shock.

• Take care that the key cover does not pinch your fingers, and do not insert a

finger or hand in the key cover gap.

• Never insert or drop paper or metallic or other objects between the slits of

the key cover and the keyboard. If this happens, immediately turn off the

power and remove the electric plug from the outlet and have the instrument

inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

• Do not place the instrument against a wall (allow at least 3 cm/one-inch

from the wall), since this can cause inadequate air circulation, and possibly

result in the instrument overheating.

• Do not operate the instrument for a long period of time at a high or

uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If

you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.

■ USING THE BENCH

• Do not play carelessly with or stand on the bench. Using it as a tool or step-

ladder or for any other purpose might result in accident or injury.

• Only one person should sit on the bench at a time, in order to prevent the

possibility of accident or injury.

• If the bench screws become loose due to extensive long-term use, tighten

them periodically using the included tool.

■ SAVING USER DATA

• Always save data to a floppy disk frequently, in order to help prevent the loss

of important data due to a malfunction or user operating error.

Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or

modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed.

Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.

PRECAUTIONS

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING

* Please keep these precautions 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:

• 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.

• If the power 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 electric plug from the outlet, and have the instrument

inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required

voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.

• Before cleaning the instrument, always remove the electric plug from the

outlet. Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.

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

have accumulated on it.

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:

• Do not place the power 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.

• When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always

hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.

• 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.

• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be

used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.

• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off

the power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all

components, set all volume levels to minimum. Also, be sure to set the

volumes of all components at their minimum levels and gradually raise the

volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening

level.

• Do not expose the instrument to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme

cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the

day) to prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration or damage to the internal

components.

• Do not use the instrument near other electrical products such as televisions,

radios, or speakers, since this might cause interference which can affect

proper operation of the other products.

• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally

fall over.

• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables.

• When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use paint thinners,

solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths. Also, do

not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might

discolor the panel or keyboard.

• Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do

not use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.

GM (General MIDI System Level 1) is an addition to the MIDI standard which ensures that any GM-compatible

music data can be accurately played by any GM-compatible tone generator, regardless of maker. The GM mark is

affixed to all software and hardware products that support the General MIDI standard.

XG is a new MIDI format created by Yamaha which significantly improves and expands upon the General MIDI

standard by providing a greater variety of high-quality voices plus considerably enhanced effect operation—while

being fully compatible with GM.

Products bearing the SONDIUS-XG logo are licensed under patents of Stanford University and Yamaha as listed on

the internet web site, <http://www.sondius-xg.com>.

• The screen displays and illustrations as shown in this owner’s manual are for instructional purposes only, and may appear somewhat different

from those on your instrument.

• Copying of the commercially available music sequence data is strictly prohibited except for your personal use.

• The company names and product names in this Owner’s manual are the trademarks or registered trademarks of their respective companies.

Congratulations!

This manual provides the information related to the newly upgraded features and functions,

difference between EL-900 and EL-900m. You can enjoy specially tailored sophisticated
