PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING
Especially in the case of children, a guardian should provide guidance on how to properly use and
handle the product before actual use.
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
(YDP-165, YDP-S55) 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.
Only use the correct voltage specified for the product.
The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the
product.
Use the specified AC adaptor (page 41).
(YDP-165, YDP-S55) Use only the supplied power cord.
Do not use the power cord for other products.
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 overheating in
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 shocks or a 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 a fire, electric shocks, or
malfunctions.
Use the AC adaptor indoors only. Do not use 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 a fire.
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.
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.

CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or
damage to the product or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Assembly
Assemble the product in the proper sequence by
following the assembly instructions in this manual. Also,
make sure to tighten the screws or bolts regularly.
Failure to do so might result in damage to the product or
even injury.
(YDP-S55, YDP-S35) Be sure to attach the anti-fall
brackets to the product, to ensure stability (page 37).
Failure to do so might result in damage to the product or
even injury.
Location
Do not place the product in an unstable position or a
location with excessive vibration, where it might
accidentally fall over and cause injury.
Do not go near the product during an earthquake.
Strong shaking during an earthquake could cause the
product to move or tip over, resulting in damage to the
product or its parts, and possibly causing injury.
When transporting or moving the product, always use
two or more people. Attempting to lift the product by
yourself may result in injuries, such as back injuries, or
cause the product to be dropped and broken, which
could lead to other injuries.
Before moving the product, remove all connected
cables, to prevent damage to the cables or injury to
anyone who might trip over them.
Connections
Before connecting the product 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 product to set the desired listening
level.
Handling
Do not insert your finger or hand in any gaps on the key
cover or product. Also take care that the key cover does
not pinch your finger.
Do not insert foreign materials such as metal or paper
into any openings or gaps of the product. Failure to
observe this may cause a fire, electric shocks, or
malfunctions.
(YDP-S55, YDP-S35) 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 product, and do not use excessive force on the
buttons, switches or connectors.
Keep small parts out of the reach of infants. Your
children may accidentally swallow them.
Do not use the product 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.
Remove the power plug from the AC outlet before
cleaning the unit. Failure to observe this may cause
electric shocks.
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.
Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage
caused by improper use or modifications to the
product, or data that is lost or destroyed.

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.
NOTE
If you are using an adaptor plug, be sure to remove this as well

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

IAC is a function which automatically adjusts and controls the sound quality
according to the overall volume of the instrument. IAC Control is effective only
on the sound output of the instrument speakers or headphones. Even when the
volume is low, this lets you hear both low sounds and high sounds clearly.
Especially when using the headphones, the burden on the ears is reduced
without raising the overall volume excessively.
To turn on/off IAC:
While holding down [DEMO/SONG] and [PIANO/VOICE] simultaneously,
press the C#2 key to turn the function on or the C2 key to turn the function off.
To adjust IAC Depth:
While holding down [DEMO/SONG] and [PIANO/VOICE] simultaneously,
press the D2 key to decrease the value, or the E2 key to increase.
The higher the value, the more clearly that low and high sounds are heard at
lower volume levels.

Damper Pedal (Right)
When you press the damper pedal, the notes you
play have a longer sustain. When you select a
Piano Voice, pressing the damper pedal also
activates the VRM Lite function (page 18) to
accurately recreate the unique resonance of an
acoustic grand piano’s strings. Moreover, this
instrument has a Half-pedal function for fine,
expressive control of the sustain.
Sostenuto Pedal (Center)
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.
While the sostenuto pedal is held, the Organ and
Strings Voices (page 20) continuously without
decay after the notes have been released.
Soft Pedal (Left)
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.
Keep in mind that this pedal function will be changed from the Soft pedal
depending on the selected Voice.
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.
Using the Pedals
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 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).
When you press the damper
pedal here, the notes you play
before you release the pedal
have a longer sustain.
When you press the sostenuto
pedal here while holding the
note, the note will sustain as
long as you hold the pedal.

The VRM (Virtual Resonance Modeling) Lite technology featured in this
instrument reproduces sophisticated string resonance faithfully using a virtual
musical instrument (physical modeling), and makes the sound more like that of
a real acoustic piano. Since instantaneous resonance is made at the moment
according to the state of the keyboard or pedal, you can vary the sound
expressively by changing the timing of your pressing the keys, and the timing
and depth of your pressing the pedal. This function affects only to the Piano
Voices (page 20).
To turn on/off the VRM Lite:
While holding [PIANO/VOICE], press the C#3 key to turn the function on or

Appendix
Troubleshooting
Problem Possible Cause and Solution
Power suddenly and unexpectedly turns off.
This is normal and the Auto Power Off function may have been activated
(page 14). If desired, disable the Auto Power Off function.
The power of the instrument does not turn on.
The plugs are not properly connected. Make sure that the DC plug is
securely inserted into the DC IN jack on the instrument, and that the AC
plug is securely inserted to the AC outlet (page 13).
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.
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 this instrument. Turn off the mobile phone, or move it
further away from this instrument.
When you use the instrument along with the application on your smart
device, we recommend that you set “Airplane Mode” to “ON” on your smart
device in order to avoid noise caused by communication.
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] knob (page 10).
Make sure a pair of headphones or conversion adaptor is not connected to
the [PHONES] jack (page 15).
The Speaker setting is “Off.” Set the Speaker to “Normal” or “On” (page 15).
The Volume Limiter setting is “On”.Set the Volume Limiter to “Off” (page 14).
Make sure that Local Control is On. For details, refer to the “MIDI
Reference” (page 8).
Pedals do not function.
The pedal cord may not be securely connected to the [TO PEDAL] jack. Be
sure to insert the pedal cord all the way until the metal part of the cord plug
disappears from view (pages 36, 39).
The pitch and sound quality of the Piano Voice
is wrong in a specific key range.
This is no problem.
Yamaha develops the Piano Voices so that the original piano sound is
reproduced as faithfully as possible. This is why you may hear overtones
emphasized in a certain key range, or you may feel that the sound pitch or
quality is different from another key range.
Playing the keys produces a rattling noise.
This is no problem.
The keyboard mechanism of this product is designed to simulate the actual
noises of an acoustic piano. Such noises are produced even if you play an
acoustic piano.
The [+R] and [−L] lamps flash when this
product is started, when a Song is selected, or
when recording is finished.
This is no problem.
It is because the [+R] and [−L] lamps may flash when the internal
processing of this product is taking a long time. Note that no operations are
available while these are flashing.
