Please keep this manual in a safe and handy 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:
Power supply
• 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.
•
Do not touch the product or the power plug during an
electrical storm.
•
Use only the correct voltage specified for the product. The
required voltage is printed on the name plate of the product.
•
Use only the supplied or the specified AC adaptor (page 41)/
power cord/plug.
•
Do not use the supplied AC adaptor/power cord/plug for
other devices.
•
Check the power plug periodically and remove any dirt or
dust which may have accumulated on it.
•
Insert the power plug firmly all the way into the AC outlet.
Using the product when it is not plugged in sufficiently can
cause dust to accumulate on the plug, possibly resulting in
fire or skin burns.
•
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, as long as the power cord is not
unplugged from the wall AC outlet, the product will not be
disconnected from the power source.
•
Do not connect the product to an electrical outlet using a
multi-plug outlet extender. Doing so can result in lower
sound quality, or possibly cause fire at or around the outlet.
•
When disconnecting the power plug, always hold the plug
itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it
and cause electric shock or fire.
•
If not using the product for long periods of time, be sure to
pull the power plug from the AC outlet.
Do not disassemble
• This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not
attempt to disassemble the internal parts or modify them
in any way.
Water warning
• Do not expose the product 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 or places where water may drop. A
liquid such as water getting into the product may cause fire,
electric shock, or malfunctions.
• Use the AC adaptor indoors only. Do not use it in any wet
environments.
• Never insert or remove a power plug with wet hands.
Fire warning
• Do not place any burning items or open flames near the
product, since they may cause fire.
Batteries

overheating, rupture, explosion, or leakage, causing burns
or injury.
•
Follow the precautions below. Failure to do so could result in fire,
overheating, leakage, or malfunction causing burns or injury.
– Use the specified battery type (page 41) only.
– Do not use new batteries together with old ones.
– Do not mix batteries of different types (alkaline and
manganese, batteries from different manufacturers, different
battery products from the same manufacturer, etc.).
– Always make sure all batteries are inserted in conformity
with the +/– polarity markings.

to be charged. Doing so could result in rupture or leakage
causing injury, etc.
• 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 chemical burns.
• When using rechargeable batteries, follow the instructions
that came with the batteries. Use only the specified charger
device and within the specified charging temperature range
when charging.
Charging with an unspecified charger or at a temperature
outside the range may cause leakage, overheating, rupture,
or malfunction.
• Keep batteries away from children. A child could
accidentally swallow a battery. Failure to observe this may
also cause inflammation due to battery fluid leakage.
•
Do not subject the batteries to mechanical shock or drop.
Failure to comply may result in fire, electric shock, explosion,
malfunction.
• Do not intentionally short the battery. Rupture or fluid
leakage may cause fire or injury.
•
Do not put batteries in a pocket or bag, or carry or store
them together with pieces of metal. Batteries kept in such
condition could short, rupture, or leak, causing fire or injury.

operation.
] Reference Manual (see page 9)
Troubleshooting
Problem Possible Cause and Solution
When the instrument is turned on by pressing
the [ ] (Standby/On) switch, a popping sound is
temporarily produced.
This indicates that the instrument is receiving electrical power.
Before turning on the instrument, turn the [MASTER VOLUME]
control to “MIN.”
When the instrument is turned on by pressing the
[
] (Standby/On) switch, the instrument turns off
suddenly and unexpectedly.
This is because the overvoltage protection function has been
activated. If an AC adaptor other than the one specified is used, the
instrument may turn off suddenly and unexpectedly. Use only the
specified AC adaptor (page 41).
When a mobile phone is being used (or ringing)
near this instrument, noise can be heard from the
instrument's speakers and/or headphones.
If a mobile phone is being used (or ringing) near this instrument,
it may produce interference. To prevent this, turn off the mobile
phone or use it further away from the instrument.
The power is automatically turned off. This is caused by the Auto Power Off function (page 13).
Change the time until the instrument is automatically turned off, or
deactivate the function.
No sound is produced when the keyboard is played.
No sound is produced when a Style, Riyaz, or Song
is played back.
Make sure that no headphones or a headphone adaptor is
connected to the [PHONES] jack.
Function 085(PSR-I610)/084(PSR-I510) “Speaker” (page 37) is set to
“3 Speaker Off.” Set it to either “1 Phones SW” or “2 Speaker On.”
39
PSR-I610, PSR-I510 Owner’s Manual
Troubleshooting
Problem Possible Cause and Solution
• The volume is too low.
• The sound quality is poor.
• The Style/Riyaz/Song/Arpeggio stops
unexpectedly or will not play.
• Recorded data, for example, of a Song, is not
played back correctly.
• The LCD display suddenly goes dark, and all panel
settings are reset.
• The instrument turns off when a USB flash drive
is being connected.
The battery is depleted. Replace all batteries with brand new or fully
recharged ones, or use the AC adaptor.
The foot switch (for sustain) seems to produce the
opposite effect.
This happens either because you stepped on the foot switch while
turning on the instrument, or the foot switch was connected/
disconnected while the instrument was on. Turn off the instrument,
and then turn it on again while being careful not to step on the foot
switch.
When playing the keyboard, some keys do not
produce sound when pressed simultaneously.
Furthermore, the sound seems to cut off when
a Style, Riyaz, Song, Arpeggio or the QUICK
SAMPLING pads are being played.
The maximum polyphony (page 40) has been exceeded. If the
maximum polyphony has been exceeded, earlier notes are muted
and subsequent notes are given priority.
The sound quality and volume vary depending on
which key is pressed.
In order to faithfully reproduce the original sound of an instrument,
this instrument has samples of the original instrument across the
range of its keyboard. As a result, some Voices may have different
sound quality and volume depending on their range.
The keyboard performance and playback of a Style/
Riyaz/Song produces an unexpected sound, such
as distortion or excessive reverb, that cannot be
returned to normal.
An unintended setting was made due to operation of the knobs.
Press the [HARMONIUM/PIANO] button to reset the panel settings.
The Style/Riyaz/Song does not start even when the
[START/STOP] button has been pressed. Arpeggio
does not start even if a key is pressed with the
Arpeggio function turned on.
Function 069(PSR-I610)/068(PSR-I510) “External Clock” (page 36)
is set to “On.” Normally, “External Clock” should be set to “Off.”
The volume of a Style/Riyaz/Song is too low. The volume of a Style/Riyaz/Song is too low. The volume levels for a
Style/Riyaz/Song can be set separately (page 34).
Make sure that the volume settings for each function are not too
low.
Style parts other than Rhythm produce no sound. Style (ACMP) is not turned on. Press the SEQUENCER CONTROL
[ACMP] button so that it lights up.
When certain Styles are selected, no rhythm is
played even after the [START/STOP] button has
been pressed.
The selected Style does not include a rhythm part. Turn the
SEQUENCER CONTROL [ACMP] button on and play the left-hand
area on the keyboard to sound the accompaniment part of the
Style.
The instrument does not respond when operated. Function 082(PSR-I610)/081(PSR-I510) “Storage Mode” (page 37)
is set to “On.” Set “Storage Mode” to “Off.”
The Style corresponding to the played chord is not
played back.
The setting for Function 032 “Fingering Type” (page 34) does not
fit how the chords are being played. Check the settings.
For details on playing chords, refer to the Reference Manual on the
website (see page 9).
The setting for Function 005 “Split Point” (page 33) is not correct.
Specify an appropriate setting.
