Front Side
Do not force the unit’s power-supply cord to
share an outlet with an unreasonable number
of other devices. Be especially careful when
using extension cords—the total power used
by all devices you have connected to the
extension cord’s outlet must never exceed the
power rating (watts/amperes) for the extension
cord. Excessive loads can cause the insulation
on the cord to heat up and eventually melt
through.
Before using the unit in a foreign country,
consult with your retailer, the nearest Roland
Service Center, or an authorized Roland
distributor, as listed on the “Information” page.
CAUTION
The unit should be located so that its location
or position does not interfere with its proper
ventilation.
Always grasp only the plug on the
power-supply cord when plugging into, or
unplugging from an outlet.
At regular intervals, you should unplug the
power plug and clean it by using a dry cloth to
wipe all dust and other accumulations away
from its prongs. Also, disconnect the power
plug from the power outlet whenever the unit
is to remain unused for an extended period of
time. Any accumulation of dust between the
power plug and the power outlet can result in
poor insulation and lead to fire.
Try to prevent cords and cables from becoming
entangled. Also, all cords and cables should be
placed so they are out of the reach of children.

on the unit.
Never handle the power cord or its plug with
