• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have
accumulated on it.
• This instrument contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not open the instrument
or attempt to disassemble or modify the internal components in any way. 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 on it any containers (such as vases, bottles or glasses)
containing liquids which might spill into any openings. If any liquid such as
water seeps into the instrument, turn off the power immediately and unplug the

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 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.
• 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.
• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used for
extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.
• Read carefully the attached documentation explaining the assembly process.
Failure to assemble the instrument in the proper sequence might result in
damage to the instrument or even injury.
• (YDP-S54) Be sure to attach the anti-fall brackets to the instrument, to ensure
stability. Failure to do so might result in damage to the instrument or even injury.
• Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally
fall over.
• When transporting or moving the instrument, always use two or more people.
Attempting to lift the instrument by yourself may damage your back, result in
other injury, or cause damage to the instrument itself.
• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to prevent damage
to the cables or injury to anyone who might trip over them.
• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily
accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power
switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is
turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When
you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power
cord from the wall AC outlet.
• 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.
• 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 insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the key cover or instrument. Also
take care that the key cover does not pinch your finger.
• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the key
cover, panel or keyboard. This could cause physical injury to you or others,
damage to the instrument or other property, or operational failure.
• (YDP-S54) Do not apply excessive force when closing the key cover. A key cover
equipped with the SOFT-CLOSE™ mechanism closes the cover slowly. Applying
excessive force to the key cover when closing it could damage the SOFT-
CLOSE™ mechanism, and possibly result in injury to your hands and fingers
caught under the closing key cover.
• 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.
• Do not use the instrument/device or headphones 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.
• Do not place the bench in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall
over.
• Do not play carelessly with or stand on the bench. Using it as a tool or stepladder
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 specified tool in order to prevent the possibility of accident
or injury.
• Keep special watch over any small children so that they don’t fall off the rear of
the bench. Since the bench does not have a backrest, unsupervised use may
result in accident or injury.
Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use.
Even when the [ ] (Standby/On) switch is in standby status (power lamp is 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.

Since this instrument is
equipped with two
[PHONES] jacks, you
can connect two sets of
standard stereo
headphones. If you are
using only one set of
headphones, insert a plug
into either jack, which
automatically shuts off
the speakers according to
the default setting.
CAUTION
Do not use headphones at a high volume for an extended
period of time; doing so may cause hearing loss.

While holding down [DEMO/SONG] and
[PIANO/VOICE] simultaneously, press one of the
D6 – E6 key.
Reproducing a natural sense of distance
(Stereophonic Optimizer)
The Stereophonic Optimizer gives you the feeling
of playing an actual acoustic piano — even though
you’re listening through headphones. Normally, the
sound comes out from headphones sounds very
close to your ears. However, this Stereophonic
Optimizer effect recreates a natural distance or the
sense of physical space between your ears and the
instrument, just as when playing an acoustic piano.
Default setting: On
While holding down [PIANO/VOICE], press the
F#3 key to turn the function on or the F3 key to
turn the function off.

Damper Pedal (Right)
Pressing this pedal will sustain notes longer.
Releasing this pedal immediately stops (damps)
any sustained notes. This pedal also features a
“half-pedal” function that creates partial sustain
effects, depending on how far down you press the
pedal.
Sostenuto Pedal (Center)
Pressing this pedal while holding the notes will
sustain the pressed notes (as if the Damper Pedal
had been pressed), but all subsequently played
notes will not be sustained. This makes it possible
to sustain a chord or single low note, for example,
while the other notes are played “staccato.”
Soft Pedal (Left)
Pressing this pedal will reduce the volume and slightly change the timbre of the
notes. The notes played before this pedal is pressed are not affected.
The Damper Resonance effect simulates the sustain sound of the damper pedal on a grand piano, as if you
were pressing the damper pedal and playing the keyboard. This effect is applied only to the Piano Voices
(page 20).
To turn on the Damper Resonance:
While holding [PIANO/VOICE], press the C#3 key.
To turn off the Damper Resonance:
While holding [PIANO/VOICE], press the C3 key.
Using the Pedals
When you press the damper
pedal here, this note and the
notes you play before you release
the pedal sustain longer.
When you press the sostenuto
pedal here while holding the
note, the note will sustain as
long as you hold the pedal.
NOTE
If the damper pedal doesn’t
work, make sure that the pedal
cord is properly plugged into
the main unit (page 39).
Half-pedal function
This function allows you to vary
the sustain length depending
on how far the pedal is
pressed. The farther down you
press the pedal, the more the
sound sustains. For example, if
you press the damper pedal
and all notes you are playing
sound a bit murky and loud
with too much sustain, you can
release the pedal half way or
higher to decrease the sustain
(murkiness).
NOTE
While the sostenuto pedal is
held, the organ and strings
Voices sound continuously
without decay after the notes
have been released.
NOTE
When Jazz Organ Voice
(page 20) is selected,
pressing the left pedal
switches between fast/slow
rotation of the rotary speaker.
When the Vibraphone Voice
(page 20) is selected, the left
pedal switches Vibrato on and
off.

Key Voice Na me Voice description
C1 CFX Grand
Yamaha’s CFX flagship concert grand piano sound with a wide
dynamic range for maximum expressive control. Suitable for
playing in any music genre and style.
C#1 Mellow Grand
Grand piano sound with a soft and warm tone. Good for playing
ballads.
D1 Pop Grand
Bright piano sound. Good for clear expression and “cutting
through” other instruments in an ensemble.
D#1 Stage E.Piano
The sound of an electric piano using hammer-struck metallic
“tines.” Soft tone when played lightly, and an aggressive tone
when played hard.
E1 DX E.Piano
An electronic piano sound created by FM synthesis. Good for
standard popular music.
F1 Harpsichord
The definitive instrument for baroque music. Since harpsichord
uses plucked strings, there is no touch response. There is,
however, a characteristic additional sound when the keys are
released.
F#1 Vibraphone
Vibraphone played with relatively soft mallets. The tone becomes
more metallic the harder you play.
G1 Pipe Organ
This is a typical pipe organ sound (8 feet + 4 feet + 2 feet). Good
for sacred music from the Baroque period.
G#1 Jazz Organ
The sound of a “tonewheel” type electric organ. Often heard in
jazz and rock music.
A1 Strings
Stereo-sampled, large-scale strings ensemble with realistic
reverb. Try combining this Voice with piano in the Dual mode.
