PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
* Please keep this manual 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 inter-
nal 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 liq-
uids which might spill into any openings.
If the AC adaptor 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 adaptor
plug from the outlet, and have the instrument inspected by quali-
fied Yamaha service personnel.
Use the specified adaptor (PA-5C or an equivalent recom-
mended by Yamaha) only. Using the wrong adaptor can result in
damage to the instrument or overheating.
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 instru-
ment or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Do not place the AC adaptor 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 posi-
tion where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything over it.
When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an out-
let, always hold the plug itself and not the cord.
Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a mul-
tiple-connector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or
possibly cause overheating in the outlet.
Unplug the AC power adaptor when not using the instrument, or
during electrical storms.
Always make sure all batteries are inserted in conformity with
the +/- polarity markings. Failure to do so might result in over-
heating, fire, or battery fluid leakage.
Always replace all batteries at the same time. Do not use new
batteries together with old ones. Also, do not mix battery types,
such as alkaline batteries with manganese batteries, or batteries
from different makers, or different types of batteries from the
same maker, since this can cause overheating, fire, or battery
fluid leakage.
Do not dispose of batteries in fire.
Do not attempt to recharge batteries that are not intended to be
charged.
When the batteries run out, or if the instrument is not to be used
for a long time, remove the batteries from the instrument to pre-
vent possible leakage of the battery fluid.
Keep batteries away from children.
If the batteries do leak, avoid contact with the leaked fluid. If the
battery fluid should come in contact with your eyes, mouth, or
skin, wash immediately with water and consult a doctor. Battery
fluid is corrosive and may possibly cause loss of sight or chemi-
cal burns.
Before connecting the instrument to other electronic compo-
nents, turn off the power for all components. Before turning the
power on or off for all components, set all volume levels to mini-
mum. 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 disfigu-
ration 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 interfer-
ence 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 adaptor
and other cables.
When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use
paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impreg-
nated 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 instru-
ment, and do not use excessive force on the buttons, switches or
connectors.
Use only the stand specified for the instrument. When attaching
the stand, use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could
cause damage to the internal components or result in the instru-
ment falling over.
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.
Playing while looking at the lights for a long period of time may
cause eye strain and stiff neck/shoulders. For your health and
comfort, we recommend that you take a ten-minute break for
every hour.
DATA BACK-UP AND STORAGE
Yamaha recommends that you regularly save data using an
external device such as the floppy disk-based Yamaha MIDI data
filer MDF3, and storing the floppy disks in a safe, cool, dry place.
YAMAHA CANNOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ACCI-
DENTAL LOSS OF IMPORTANT MUSIC DATA! Regarding the
data you have created, as long as fresh batteries are inserted in
(or an AC power adaptor is connected to) the instrument, the
data will be retained, even when the power is turned off. It will
also be retained long enough to exchange an old set of batteries
for a new set. If you have important data in the instrument which
you don’t want to lose, please take care to keep fresh batteries
inserted in (or keep an AC power adaptor connected to) the
instrument, and to regularly save data.
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.
Make sure to discard used batteries according to local regulations.

Congratulations on your purchase of the Yamaha EZ-30 PortaTone!
You now own a portable keyboard that combines advanced func-
tions, great sound and exceptional ease-of-use in a highly compact
package. Its outstanding features also make it a remarkably expres-
sive and versatile instrument.
Read this Owner’s Manual carefully while playing your new EZ-30
in order to take full advantage of its various features.
Main Features
The EZ-30 is a sophisticated yet easy-to-use keyboard with the following features and
functions:
Yamaha Education Suite
The EZ-30 features the new Yamaha Education Suite - a set of learning tools that uti-
lize the latest technology to make studying and practicing music more fun and
fulfilling than ever before!
The Yamaha Education Suite includes:
Lesson ................................................................ page 34
The convenient and easy-to-use Lesson feature guides you through the parts
of a song - just like a patient teacher! Select from any one of 100 songs on
the EZ-30, and learn the left- and right-hand parts independently at first,
then together. Lesson features three easy steps that help you master each
song: Timing, Waiting and Minus One.

The EZ-30 also has the Grade and Talking features. Grade is a virtual
“teacher,” evaluating your practice sessions and rating your performance.
The convenient Talking function “announces” each Lesson step and your
“grades,” among other things.
Dictionary .......................................................... page 58
Dictionary is a built-in “chord encyclopedia” that teaches you how to play
specific chords by showing you the appropriate notes in the display - per-
fect for when you know the name of a chord and want to quickly learn how
to play it!
Lighting ............................................................. page 32
When you are using the Lesson feature or Dictionary, the key indicators tell
you which keys to play. Also, during song playback, they show the keys
that are playing.

Setting Up
Although the EZ-30 will run either from an
optional AC adaptor or batteries, Yamaha
recommends use of an AC adaptor whenever
possible. An AC adaptor is more environmen-
tally friendly than batteries and does not
deplete resources.
Using an AC Power Adaptor
Use of an AC power adaptor is recom-
mended, especially when you use the
EZ-30 for a long period of time.
1 Make sure that the [STANDBY/ON]
switch of the EZ-30 is set to
STANDBY.
2 Connect one end of the adaptor to the
DC IN 10-12V jack on the rear panel
of your EZ-30.
3 Connect the other end to a suitable
electrical outlet.
WARNING
Use ONLY a Yamaha PA-5C AC Power Adap-
tor (or other adaptor specifically
recommended by Yamaha) to power your
instrument from the AC mains.
The use of other adaptors may result in irrepa-
rable damage to both the adaptor and the EZ-
30.
CAUTION
Unplug the AC Power Adaptor when not using
the EZ-30, or during electrical storms.
Using Batteries
1 Turn the instrument upside-down and
remove the battery compartment lid.
2 Insert six 1.5-volt “D” size, R20P
(LR20) or equivalent batteries as
shown in the illustration, making sure
that the positive and negative termi-
nals are properly aligned.
3 Replace the lid.
Replace the batteries before they
completely discharge. If the battery
voltage gets low, the volume level
may be reduced, sound integrity may
deteriorate, the display indicators
may disappear, or the stored data
may be deleted. If any of these events
occur, replace the battery, heeding
the cautions described below.
CAUTION
• Insert the batteries in the correct direction,
making sure that the positive and negative
terminals of the batteries match the label. If
the orientation does not match the label, the
batteries may generate heat, cause a fire, or
leak.
• Never mix old and new batteries or different
types of batteries (e.g., alkaline and
manganese).
• To prevent possible damage from battery
leakage, remove the batteries from the
instrument if it is not to be used for a long
time.
• Even when the switch is in the “STANDBY”
position, electricity is still flowing to the
instrument at the minimum level.
When you plan not to use the EZ-30 for a
long period of time, make sure you unplug
the AC power adaptor from the wall AC out-
let, and/or remove the batteries from the
instrument.

BATTERIES 1.5 V x 6

For private practicing and playing without
disturbing others, connect a set of stereo
headphones to the rear panel PHONES/OUT-
PUT jack. Sound from the built-in speaker
system is automatically cut off when you
insert a headphone plug into this jack.
CAUTION
Do not use headphones for a long time at high
volume levels. Otherwise, you may damage
your hearing.
Though the EZ-30 is equipped with a built-in
speaker system, you can also play it through an
external amplifier/speaker system. First, make
sure the EZ-30 and any external devices are
turned off, then connect one end of a stereo
audio cable to the LINE IN or AUX IN jack(s) of
the other device and the other end to the rear
panel PHONES/OUTPUT jack on the EZ-30.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the speakers, set the vol-
ume of the external devices at the minimum
setting before connecting them. Failure to
observe these cautions may result in electric
shock or equipment damage. Also, be sure to
set the volumes of all devices at their mini-
mum levels and gradually raise the volume
controls while playing the instrument to set the
desired listening level.
This feature lets you use an optional foot-
switch (Yamaha FC4 or FC5) to sustain the
sound of the voices. The footswitch func-
tions the same way as a damper pedal on an
acoustic piano - press and hold down the
footswitch as you play the keyboard to sus-
tain the sound.
Make sure that the footswitch plug
is properly connected to the SUS-
TAIN jack before you turn on the
power.
Do not press the footswitch while
turning the power on. Doing this
changes the recognized polarity of
the footswitch, resulting in
reversed footswitch operation.
The EZ-30 also features MIDI terminals,
allowing you to interface the EZ-30 with
other MIDI instruments and devices. (For
more information, see page 78.)
Special MIDI cables (sold sepa-
rately) must be used for connecting
to MIDI devices. They can be
bought at music stores, etc.
Never use MIDI cables longer
than about 15 meters. Cables
longer than this can pick up noise
which can cause data errors.

fier or Stereo System

Lesson
Using the Lesson Feature
Songs 001 to 100 are specially designed for use with the educational
Lesson feature. Let’s start the practice, following the light.
1 Select Timing, Waiting, or Minus One, and start the lesson.
When the power of the EZ-30 is turned on, the song of ”003: Linus And Lucy”
and the right-hand part are selected.
Lesson 1: Timing
This step lets you work on the timing of the notes. In Lesson 1, the particular
note you play on the keyboard is unimportant. The EZ-30 checks your timing
and how rhythmically “tight” your playing is.

15
Lesson 2: Waiting
In Lesson 2, you practice playing the notes correctly as they appear in the dis-
play notation. The accompaniment pauses and waits for you to play the notes
correctly before it continues.
Lesson 3: Minus One
In Lesson 3, you practice playing correct notes, along with the accompani-
ment. The accompaniment continues playing in tempo.
2 When you’re finished, stop the Lesson.
Want to find out more? See page 34.
The EZ-30 has a built-in evaluation function that monitors your practicing and
- like a real teacher - tells you how well you did each practice. Four grades are
assigned, depending on your performance: “Try Again,” “Good,” “Very
Good,” and “Excellent.”
Want to find out more? See page 37.
This feature “talks” to you through the speakers, “announcing” the Grade com-
ments as well as the titles of the Lesson steps.
