OWNER'S MANUAL
Before using the Clavinova, be sure to read “PRECAUTIONS„ on pages 3-4.
IMPORTANT
—Check your power supply—
Make sure that your local AC mains voltage matches the voltage specified on the name plate on the bottom panel. In some areas
a voltage selector may be provided on the rear of the main keyboard unit near the power cord. Make sure that the voltage
selector is set for the voltage in your area. The voltage selector is set at 240V when the unit is initially shipped. To change the
setting use a "minus" screwdriver to rotate the selector dial so that the correct voltage appears next to the pointer on the panel.
For information on assembling the keyboard stand, refer to the instructions at the end of this manual.

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:
Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required
voltage is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may
have accumulated on it.
Use only the supplied power cord/plug.
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.
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.
Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit.
A burning item may fall over and cause a fire.
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.
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:
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.
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.
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.
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 in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment,
mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio
may generate noise.
Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally
fall over.
Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables.
When setting up the instrument, 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.
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.

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.
(For polish-finished model) Gently remove dust and dirt with a soft cloth. Do
not wipe too hard since small particles of dirt can scratch the instrument's
finish.
When cleaning the instrument, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Do not
use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping
cloths.
•Take care that the key cover does not pinch your fingers, and do not insert a
finger or hand in any gaps on the key cover or instrument.
Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the key
cover, panel or keyboard. If this happens, turn off the power immediately and
unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected
by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the instrument, since this might
discolor the panel or keyboard.
(For polish-finished model) Bumping the surface of the instrument with metal,
porcelain, or other hard objects can cause the finish to crack or peel. Use
caution.
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 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.
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 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.
In the case of a model which the height adjustable bench included, do not
attempt to adjust the bench height while sitting on the bench, since this can
cause excessive force to be imposed on the adjustment mechanism, possibly
resulting in damage to the mechanism or even injury.
If the bench screws become loose due to extensive long-term use, tighten them
periodically using the included tool.
Saving and backing up your data
Current data (page 43) is lost when you turn off the power to the instrument
before saving. Save the data to a USB storage device/external device such as a
computer.
Saved data may be lost due to malfunction or incorrect operation. Save
important data to a USB storage device/external device such as a computer.
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.

VOICE
Panel Controls and Terminals
The Yamaha CLP-280/270 Clavinova offers unmatched sonic realism and exceptionally natural grand-piano type
playability, and features Yamahas original AWM Dynamic Stereo Sampling technology for rich, authentic, musical
voices.
The CLP-270 utilizes a GH3 (Graded Hammer 3) Keyboard that varies the key weight according to the key range,
while the CLP-280 boasts a Natural Wood Keyboard that enhances the GH3 features (including real-wood white
keys), to reproduce as closely as possible the experience of playing an actual acoustic grand piano.
Thanks to these two keyboard types, you can use performance techniques previously possible only on grand
pianos—such as playing the same note successively and having sounds blend smoothly even without use of the
damper pedal, or playing the same key quickly and having perfect articulation without the sound cutting off unnatu-
rally. The remarkably authentic Grand Piano 1 voice on both instruments also features:
•Dynamic Sampling, using velocity-switched samples for extra realism;
•String Resonance (page 88), which recreates the rich resonance of piano strings;
•Sustain Sampling (page 88), which uses samples of the resonance of an acoustic grand pianos soundboard and
strings made when the damper pedal is pressed; and
•Keyoff Samples, which add the subtle, characteristic sounds produced when keys are released.

Introduction
Introduction to the Controls
This instrument has many buttons and controls—so many that you may feel overwhelmed at first. However,
once you understand the basic operations, you’ll find the instrument is very easy to use.
Press the button corresponding to the function you want to use.
The buttons are the means of entrance to the functions.
For example, when you want to change a voice, you simply press one of the voice group buttons on the right
of the panel, or when you want to listen to a preset song, press the [SONG SELECT] button on the left of the
panel.
For the functions that are assigned to each button, see “Panel Controls and Terminals” on page 10.
When you press a button, related content or parameter is shown in the display. For example, when you press
a voice button, the voice name is shown, or when you press the [SONG SELECT] button, a song name is
shown on the display. After pressing a button, check the display for the indication.
Selecting items/parameters with the buttons on the side of the display.
Each function may have many items or parameters from which you can choose. To select an item or parame-
ter, press one of the A [–][+] – D [–][+] buttons. Each parameter in the display corresponds to the A [–][+]
– D [–][+] button next to it.

Introduction
Before Using the Clavinova
Turning the power on
1. Connect the power cable.
First insert the plug of the power cable into the AC connector on the Clavinova, then plug the other end of the cable
into the proper AC outlet on the wall.
In some areas a plug adaptor may be provided to match the pin configuration of the AC wall outlets in your area.
WARNING!
Make sure your CLP-280/270 is rated for the AC voltage supplied in the area in which it is to be used (voltage rating appears on
the name plate on the bottom panel). In some areas, a voltage selector may be provided on the bottom panel of the main key-
board unit near the power cord. Make sure that the voltage selector is set for the voltage in your area. 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 CLP-280/270. 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 CLP-280/270 may be different depending on the country in which it is purchased.
(In some areas a plug adaptor may be provided to match the pin configuration of the AC wall outlets in your area.) Do NOT mod-
ify the plug provided with the CLP-280/270. If the plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electri-
cian.
2. Turn on the power to the Clavinova.
Press the [POWER] switch located on the right of the keyboard to turn the power on.
•The screen located in the center of the front panel and the power indicator located below the left end of the key-
board lights up.
Press the [POWER] switch again to turn off the power to the Clavinova.
•The screen and the power indicator turn off.

Introduction
Before Using the Clavinova
Adjusting the display contrast
You can adjust the contrast of the display by turning the [CONTRAST] knob located to the right of the LCD.
Setting the volume
To adjust the volume, use the [MASTER VOLUME] dial located at the left of the panel. Play the keyboard to
actually produce sound while you adjust the volume.
Using headphones
Connect a pair of headphones to one of the [PHONES] jacks.
When the headphones are plugged into either of the [PHONES]
jacks, the internal speaker system is automatically shut off.
Two [PHONES] jacks are provided. Two sets of standard stereo
headphones can be plugged in. (If you are using only one pair of
headphones, you can plug them into either of these jacks.)
CAUTION
Do not use headphones at a high volume for an extended period of time.
Doing so may cause hearing loss.
Using the Headphone Hanger
A headphone hanger is included in the CLP-280/270
package so that you can hang the headphones on the
Clavinova. Install the headphone hanger using included
two screws (4 × 10mm) as shown in the figure.
CAUTION
Do not hang anything other than the headphones on the hanger. Otherwise, the Clavinova
or the hanger may be damaged.
Performing the iAFC automatic adjustment
The CLP-280/270 features an iAFC (Instrumental Active Field Control) effect. This produces sound from the
speaker located on the rear of the Clavinova, enhancing the reverberation and spaciousness of the sound.
In order to take full advantage of iAFC, perform the automatic adjustment. (page 82)
