do not perform any operation for about 6 minutes. Note that

keys light only, and no sound is produced. When this

happens, press any button or keyboard key to clear the power

on alert.

turn off automatically no matter how long it is left with

no operation being performed.

• Auto Power Off is enabled again when you manually

turn off power and then turn it back on again.

Make sure that keyboard power is turned off before replacing

batteries or unplugging the AC adaptor.

Connecting Headphones (Figure

)

Connecting headphones cuts off output from the keyboard’s

built-in speakers, so you can play even late at night without

disturbing anyone.

SUSTAIN/ASSIGNABLE JACK

Audio Equipment (Figure

)

Connect the keyboard to an audio equipment using a

commercially available connecting cord with a standard plug

on one end and two PIN plugs on the other end. Note that

the standard plug you connect to the keyboard must be a

stereo plug, otherwise you will be able to output only one of

stereo channels. In this configuration, you normally set the

input selector of the audio equipment to the terminal (usually

marked AUX IN or something similar) where the cord from

the keyboard is connected. See the user documentation that

comes with your audio equipment for full details.

SP-20

Sustain Pedal

• With piano tones, depressing the pedal causes notes to

linger, much like a piano’s damper pedal.

• With organ tones, depressing the pedal causes notes to

continue to sound until the pedal is released.

Musical Instrument Amplifier (Figure

)

Use a commercially available connecting cord to connect the

keyboard to a musical instrument amplifier.

Sostenuto Pedal

NOTE

• As with the sustain pedal function described above,

depressing the sostenuto pedal causes notes to be sustained.

• This difference between a sostenuto pedal and sustain pedal

is the timing. With a sostenuto pedal, you press the keys

and then depress the pedal before you release the keys.

• Only the notes that are sounding when the pedal is

depressed are sustained.

• Be sure to use a connecting cord that has a stereo

standard plug on the end you connect to the keyboard,

and a connector that provides dual channel (left and

right) input to the amplifier to which you are connecting.

The wrong type of connector at either end can cause

one of the stereo channels to be lost.

Soft Pedal

When connected to a musical instrument amplifier, set the

volume of the keyboard to a relatively low level and make

output volume adjustments using the amplifier’s controls.

Depressing the pedal softens the sound of the notes being

played.

Rhythm Start/Stop Pedal

In this case, the pedal performs the same functions as the

START/STOP button.

Lesson Play

Targeted Practice

Whenever you select an Auto Accompaniment tune for 3-step

lesson play, the key lighting system shows you which keys

to press, while the display shows you the notes and their

fingerings.

3-Step Lesson

The 3-step lesson feature takes you through the three distinct

steps described below to help you learn to play tunes on the

keyboard.

Note Pitch

Step 1 – Master the timing.

The keyboard key that should be pressed lights, while the

actual pitch of the note appears in the display’s staff notation

area. The fingers you should use to play the notes are also

shown on the display.

In this step, pressing any key on the keyboard plays the

correct note, so you can concentrate on getting the timing

right without worrying about playing the right note.

Accompaniment (left-hand part) waits until you press a key

before proceeding to the next phrase.

Note Length

Keyboard keys stay lit for as long as the note should be

played. The staff notation and fingerings also remain on the

display for the length of the note.

Step 2 – Master the notes.

In this step, you use the display to learn which fingers you

should use and how loud or soft to play, and the key light

system to learn which keyboard keys to press.

Accompaniment (left-hand part) waits until your play the

correct note, so you can learn at your own pace.

Next Note

The keyboard key for the next note to be played flashes, while

a number appears on the display near the finger you should

use to play the next note.

Series of Same Pitch Notes

Step 3 – Play at normal speed.

The keyboard key light turns off momentarily between the

notes and lights again for each successive note. The staff

notation and fingerings also turn off and back on again.

This is where you enjoy actually playing the tunes you learn

using Step 1 and Step 2. The key light system still shows you

which keyboard keys to press, but accompaniment proceeds

at normal speed regardless of whether or not you play the

correct notes.

Timing Indicator: In the Evaluation Mode, the configuration

of the star changes with each note to let

you know how your timing is. The more

stars, the better your timing.

Using Tone and Voice Guide

3-step Lesson Tempo Setting

When the keyboard senses that your timing is off, it will let

you know by changing the notes you play to a tone that is

different from the one you currently have selected. In the

Evaluation Mode, a simulated human voice will also tell you

your evaluation level. The sound effect keeps you informed

of when your evaluation level is about to change.

Use the procedure under “Adjusting the Tempo” on page

E-20 to adjust the tempo for 3-step lesson play.

Example: To play the chord C major.

NOTE

• Except for the chords specified in note*¹above, inverted

fingerings (i.e. playing E-G-C or G-C-E instead of C-E-

G) will produce the same chords as the standard

fingering.

Any of the fingerings shown in the illustration below will

1 .... Chord C

FULL RANGE CHORD

2 .... Chord C

This accompaniment method provides a total of 38 different

chord types: the 15 chord types available with FINGERED

plus 23 additional types. The keyboard interprets any input

of three or more keys that matches a FULL RANGE CHORD

pattern to be a chord. Any other input (that is not a FULL

RANGE CHORD pattern) is interpreted as melody play.

Because of this, there is no need for a separate accompaniment

keyboard, so the entire keyboard, from end to end, can be

used for both melody and chords.

NOTE

• As with the FINGERED mode (page E-33), you can play

the notes that form a chord in any combination (1).

• When the composite notes of a chord are separated by

6 or more notes, the lowest sound becomes the bass

(2).

CARD

STEP

Your keyboard is equipped with a card slot

that supports use of memory cards

(commercially available SD memory card

• Avoid storing and using memory cards in the following

types of locations. Such conditions can cause corruption

of data stored on the card.

or optional CASIO song data card*). This makes it possible

for the keyboard to directly read commercially available SMF

data, which has been saved to a memory card from your

computer, for karaoke and lessons. Memory card data can be

used the same way as built-in tunes.

• Areas subject to high temperatures, high humidity, or

corrosive agents

• Areas subject to strong electrostatic charge or

electrical noise

• Whenever handling a memory card, make sure that you

never touch its contacts with your fingers.

G Supported Memory Cards:

SD memory cards, optional CASIO song data cards*

• If the data access lamp is lit and the message “Pls Wait”

is on the display, it means that data on the memory card

is being accessed by a save, read, or delete operation.

Never remove the memory card from the card slot or

turn off the keyboard while the card is being accessed.

Doing so can corrupt the data on the memory card or

even damage the card slot.

• Never try to insert anything that is not an SD memory

card or optional CASIO song data card* into the

Keyboard’s memory card slot. Doing so can cause

malfunction of the keyboard.

G Supported SD Cards:

1 GB or less (Cards with capacity greater than 1 GB are

not supported.)

G Maximum Number of Importable Songs: Up to 1,000

• The actual number of songs that can be imported

depends on the size of each file. The actual number will

be less than 1,000 when individual song files are large.

G Supported Data:

• Inserting a memory card that is charged with static

electricity into the card slot can cause malfunction of

the keyboard. If this happens, turn the keyboard off and

then back on again.

• A memory card that has been in the card slot for a long

time may feel hot when you remove it. This is normal

and does not indicate malfunction.

SMF Format 0, CASIO Original Format CM2

IMPORTANT!

• Use only an SD memory card or an optional CASIO song

data card* with this keyboard. Proper operation is not

guaranteed when any other type of card is used.

• Note that a memory card has a limited service life. After

long use, you may not be able to store data to, read

data from, and/or delete data from a card. When this

happens, you will need to purchase a new memory card.

Memory Card and Card Slot

Precautions

IMPORTANT!

* May not be available in some geographic areas.

• Be sure to carefully read all documentation that comes

with the memory card for important information about

how to handle it.

• SD memory cards have a write protect switch, which

you can use to protect against accidental deletion of

data. After saving important data to an SD memory card,

be sure to use the write protect switch to protect the

data against accidental changes or deletion.

Using a Memory Card

Inserting and Removing a Memory

Card

Getting Ready

IMPORTANT!

• Make sure you turn off the keyboard before inserting or

removing a memory card.

• Be sure to orient the card correctly when inserting it.

Never try to force a memory card into the card slot when

you feel resistance.

• Never remove the memory card from the card slot or

turn off the keyboard while card data is being accessed

by a read or format operation. Doing so can corrupt the

data on the memory card or even damage the card slot.

• Before you can use an SD memory card with this

keyboard, you need to perform the procedure below to

format it. After formatting the card, transfer SMF data

from your computer to the card.

• Formatting an SD memory card with this keyboard

automatically creates a folder named “MUSICDAT” on

the card. When transferring SMF data from your

computer to the card for use by the keyboard, be sure

to store it in the “MUSICDAT” folder.

• Note that formatting a card that already contains data

causes all of that data to be deleted. Data deleted by

the format operation cannot be recovered. Before

performing the procedure below, check to make sure

that the media does not contain any data you might need.

To insert a memory card into the card slot

1 With the front side of the memory card facing

upwards, carefully slide it into the card slot. Slide

the card all the way in until you hear it click

securely into place.

PREPARATION

• Insert the SD memory card you want to format into the

keyboard’s card slot. Make sure that the SD memory

card’s write protect is removed, which enables writing.

To format an SD memory card

1 Press the FUNCTION button a number of times until

the card format setting screen appears.

• The message “Pls Wait” will remain on the display to

indicate that a procedure is being performed. Never

try to perform any other operation on the keyboard

while the card is being formatted. After formatting is

complete, the keyboard returns to the mode you were

in before you displayed the setting screen.

2 Pull the memory card out of the card slot.

• To cancel the format operation, press the [–] (NO)

button. This returns to the card format setting screen.

Care of your keyboard

Avoid heat, humidity or direct sunlight.

Do not overexpose the instrument to direct sunlight, or place it near an air conditioner, or in any extremely hot place.

Do not use lacquer, thinner or similar chemicals for cleaning.

Clean the keyboard with a soft cloth dampened in a weak solution of water and a neutral detergent. Soak the cloth in the solution

and squeeze until it is almost dry.

Avoid use in areas subjected to temperature extremes.

Extremely high or low temperature can cause figures on the LCD screen to become dim and difficult to read. This condition

should correct itself when the keyboard is brought back to normal temperature.

NOTE

• You may notice lines in the finish of the case of this keyboard. These lines are a result of the molding process used to shape

the plastic of the case. They are not cracks or breaks in the plastic, and are no cause for concern.
