USING THE UNIT SAFELY

 

002c

 

• Do not open (or modify in any way) the unit or its 

AC adaptor.

..........................................................................................................

• Do not attempt to repair the unit, or replace parts 

within it (except when this manual provides 
specific instructions directing you to do so). 
Refer all servicing to your retailer, the nearest 
Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland 
distributor, as listed on the “Information” page.

..........................................................................................................

• Never install the unit in any of the following 

locations:

• Subject to temperature extremes (e.g., direct 

sunlight in an enclosed vehicle, near a heating 
duct, on top of heat-generating equipment); or 
are

• Damp (e.g., baths, washrooms, on wet floors); 

or are

• Exposed to steam or smoke; or are

• Subject to salt exposure; or are

• Humid; or are

• Exposed to rain; or are

• Dusty or sandy; or are

• Subject to high levels of vibration and shakiness.

..........................................................................................................

• This unit should be used only with a rack or stand 

that is recommended by Roland.

..........................................................................................................

• When using the unit with a rack or stand recom-

mended by Roland, the rack or stand must be 
carefully placed so it is level and sure to remain 
stable. If not using a rack or stand, you still need to make 
sure that any location you choose for placing the unit 
provides a level surface that will properly support the 
unit, and keep it from wobbling.

..........................................................................................................

• Make sure you always have the unit placed so it is 

level and sure to remain stable. Never place it on 
stands that could wobble, or on inclined surfaces.

..........................................................................................................

• Be sure to use only the AC adaptor supplied with 

the unit. Also, make sure the line voltage at the 
installation matches the input voltage specified on 
the AC adaptor’s body. Other AC adaptors may 
use a different polarity, or be designed for a 
different voltage, so their use could result in 
damage, malfunction, or electric shock.

..........................................................................................................

 

008e

 

• Use only the attached power-supply cord. Also, 

the supplied power cord must not be used with 
any other device.

..........................................................................................................

 

009

 

• Do not excessively twist or bend the power cord, 

nor place heavy objects on it. Doing so can 
damage the cord, producing severed elements 
and short circuits. Damaged cords are fire and 
shock hazards!

..........................................................................................................

 

010

 

• This unit, either alone or in combination with an 

amplifier and headphones or speakers, may be 
capable of producing sound levels that could 
cause permanent hearing loss. Do not operate for 
a long period of time at a high volume level, or at 
a level that is uncomfortable. If you experience 
any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you should 
immediately stop using the unit, and consult an 
audiologist.

..........................................................................................................

 

011

 

• Do not place containers containing liquid (e.g. 

flower vases) on this product. Never allow foreign 
objects (e.g., flammable objects, coins, wires) or 
liquids (water, juice, etc.) to enter the C-200. Doing 
so may cause short-circuits, faulty operation, or 
other malfunctions.
