6. Troubleshooting

• No Sound:
  • Ensure the piano is powered on and the volume is turned up.
  • Check if headphones are plugged in; unplug them if you want sound from the built-in speakers.
• Poor Sound Quality from Built-in Speakers:
  • While the piano offers good sound, for optimal audio, consider connecting external speakers or high-quality headphones.
• Settings Not Saving / Loud Startup:
  • The piano may reset to default settings and a loud volume upon power-on after inactivity. Adjust volume immediately after powering on.
• Velocity Curve / Touch Response Issues:
  • The semi-weighted keys are designed to simulate an acoustic piano feel. If experiencing issues with touch response or velocity, ensure proper playing technique. Some users report a limited velocity range; this is a characteristic of the instrument.
• Bluetooth Connectivity Issues:
  • Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on both the piano and your device.
  • Check that the piano is not already connected to another device.
  • Restart both the piano and your device.
