shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the
following:

Power supply/Power cord

Water warning

• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators. Also,
do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, or place heavy objects on
it.
• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the instrument. The required voltage
is printed on the name plate of the instrument.
• Use only the supplied power cord/plug.
• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have
accumulated on it.

• 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
power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the instrument inspected by qualified
Yamaha service personnel.
• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.

CSP-170/CSP-150 Owner’s Manual

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:

Power supply/Power cord

Connections

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used for
extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.

Handling caution
Assembly

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.
• 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.

Location
• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

Using the bench (If included)
• 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.
• For benches that can be adjusted, do not 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 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.

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.
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.

damp cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, alcohol,
cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.
• In the case of a model with a polished finish, 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.
• During extreme changes in temperature or humidity,
condensation may occur and water may collect on the surface
of the instrument. If water is left, the wooden parts may
absorb the water and be damaged. Make sure to wipe any
water off immediately with a soft cloth.

instrument achieves the feel of an actual grand piano. It also reproduces the way sound echoes based on the
concert hall, and the subtle changes in sound due to the opening or closing of the lid of a grand piano.

Standard stereo phone plug

CAUTION
Do not use the headphones for a long period of time at a high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent
hearing loss.

Reproducing the natural sensation of sound distance — Binaural Sampling and
Stereophonic Optimizer
This instrument features two advanced technologies that allow you to enjoy exceptionally realistic, natural
sound, even when listening on headphones. The default setting for this function is on, but you can turn it
off by using the Smart Pianist smart device app.

Binaural Sampling (“CFX Grand” Voice only)
Binaural sampling is a method that uses two special microphones set at the ear position of a performer and
records the sound from a piano as it is. Listening to the sound with this effect through headphones gives the
impression of being immersed in the sound, as if it was actually emanating from the piano. Moreover, you
can enjoy the sound naturally for a long time without ear strain. When the default voice, “CFX Grand”
(page 24) is selected, connecting the headphones automatically enables the binaural sampling sound.

Stereophonic Optimizer (Voices in the Piano group other than “CFX Grand”)
The Stereophonic Optimizer feature recreates for headphones the spacious sensation you hear when you
play an acoustic piano, even though you hear it on headphones. When this function is turned on, you can
sense a natural sound distance as if the sound is coming from the piano.
When headphones are connected, the Voices in the Piano group automatically change to the sound of Binaural
Sampling or the sound enhanced with the Stereophonic Optimizer, by the default settings. Since these sounds are
optimized for listening with headphones, we recommend that you set this function to “OFF” in the following
situations.
• Playing the piano sound of this instrument with an external powered speaker system, while monitoring the
sound output from this instrument on connected headphones.
• Making an audio recording and then playing that recorded audio Song through speakers of this instrument.
(Make sure to turn off these functions before audio recording.)
You can set this setting On or Off via the Smart Pianist smart device app.

CSP-170/CSP-150 Owner’s Manual

Using the headphone hanger
A headphone hanger is included in the instrument package so that you can hang the headphones on the
instrument. Install the headphone hanger by following the instructions at the end of this manual.
NOTICE
Do not hang anything other than the headphones on the hanger. Otherwise, the instrument or the hanger may be damaged.

This instrument is equipped with three foot pedals: damper pedal (right), sostenuto pedal (center), and soft
pedal (left).
NOTE
If the pedals do not work, the pedal cord plug may be not connected. Securely insert the pedal cord plug into the proper jack (page 36).

Damper pedal (right pedal)
When you press the damper pedal, the notes you play have a longer sustain.
This instrument has a Half-pedal function for fine, expressive control of the
sustain.

Half-pedal function
The Half-pedal function allows you to use half-damper techniques, in which the
damper is pressed somewhere between all the way down and all the way up. In this
half-damper state (on a real piano), the damper felts only partially mute the strings.
This function lets you delicately and expressively control the damper muting, and
create subtle nuances in your performance, by finely controlling the point at which
pressure on the pedal affects the damper muting. This can be set with the Smart
Pianist smart device app.

Playing the Clavinova as a Piano

Using the pedals

When you press the damper
pedal here, the notes you
play before you release the
pedal have a longer sustain.

Sostenuto pedal (center pedal)
If you play a note or chord on the keyboard and press the sostenuto pedal
while holding the note(s), the notes will sustain as long as the pedal is held.
All subsequent notes will not sustain.
NOTE
While the sostenuto (center) pedal is held, a sustained (non-decaying) type of Voice such as organ
or strings may sound continuously without decay after the notes have been released.

When you press the sostenuto
pedal here while holding the
note(s), the notes will sustain
as long as you hold the pedal.

Soft pedal (left pedal)
The soft pedal reduces the volume and slightly changes the timbre of notes played while the pedal is
pressed. The soft pedal will not affect notes that are already playing when it is pressed.
NOTE
This pedal function may be different from the normal soft (left) pedal function, depending on the selected Voice. For example, when the
“Mellow Organ” is selected, pressing and releasing this pedal switches between the “fast” and “slow” speeds of the Rotary Speaker
effect.

CSP-170/CSP-150 Owner’s Manual

Troubleshooting
Problem

Possible Cause and Solution

The instrument does not turn on.

The instrument has not been plugged in properly. Securely insert the
female plug into the socket on the instrument, and the male plug into a
proper AC outlet (page 36).

A click or pop is heard when the power is
turned on or off.

This is normal when electrical current is being applied to the instrument.

The power is automatically turned off.

This is normal and due to the Auto Power Off function. If necessary, set
the parameter of the Auto Power Off function (page 16).

Noise is heard from the speakers or
headphones.

The noise may be due to interference caused by the use of a mobile
phone in close proximity to the instrument.
Turn off the mobile phone, or use it further away from the instrument.

Noise is heard from the instrument’s
speakers or headphones when using the
instrument with the smart device.

When you use the instrument along with an application on your smart
device, such as iPhone/iPad, we recommend that you connect with a
USB cable, or set your device to not emit radio waves (such as with
“Airplane Mode”), turn on Wi-Fi only, and connect to the instrument.

The overall volume is low, or no sound is
heard.

The Master Volume is set too low; set it to an appropriate level using the
[MASTER VOLUME] slider (page 17).

Pedals do not function.

The pedal cord may not be securely connected to the [PEDAL] jack. Be
sure to insert the pedal cord all the way until the metal part of the cord
plug disappears from view (page 36).

The keyboard volume is lower than the
metronome volume.

The volume level for the metronome is set too loud. Adjust the metronome
volume (page 27).

Higher or lower notes do not sound
correctly when the transpose or octave
setting is made.

The instrument can cover a key range of C-2 – G8 when you set the
transposition. If notes lower than C-2 are played, the actual resulting
sound is one octave higher. If notes higher than G8 are played, the
resulting sound is one octave lower.

Compatible formats for this instrument


GM2

“GM (General MIDI)” is one of the most common Voice allocation formats. “GM System Level 2” is a standard specification that
enhances the original “GM” and improves Song data compatibility. It provides for increased polyphony, greater Voice selection,
expanded Voice parameters, and integrated effect processing.
Specifications



XG is a major enhancement of the GM System Level 1 format, and was developed by Yamaha specifically to provide more Voices
and variations, as well as greater expressive control over Voices and effects, and to ensure compatibility of data well into the
future.



GS was developed by the Roland Corporation. In the same way as Yamaha XG, GS is a major enhancement of the GM specifically
to provide more Voices and Drum kits and their variations, as well as greater expressive control over Voices and effects.



The Yamaha XF format enhances the SMF (Standard MIDI File) standard with greater functionality and open-ended
expandability for the future. This instrument is capable of displaying lyrics when an XF file containing lyric data is played.
