the Clavinova automatically 
calls up the first disk song 
when a disk is inserted 
(page 142).
n
Some song data for the 
Clavinova has been 
recorded with special “free 
tempo” settings. During play-
back of such song data, the 
measure numbers shown in 
the display will not corre-
spond to the actual mea-
sure; this only serves as a 
reference as to how much of 
the song has been played 
back.
n
Songs containing a large 
amount of data may not be 
able to be read properly by 
the instrument, and as such 
you may not be able to 
select them. The maximum 
capacity is about 200–
300KB, however this may 
differ depending on the data 
contents of each song.
Insert the disk shutter side 
first and label face up.
