WARNING
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 stand
recommended by Roland, the rack or
stand must be carefully placed so it is
level and sure to remain stable. If not
using a 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.
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.
WARNING
Use only the attached power-supply
cord. Also, the supplied power cord
must not be used with any other
device.
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!
This unit, either alone or in combina-
tion 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.
Do not place containers containing liq-
uid on this product. Never allow foreign
objects (e.g., flammable objects, coins,
wires) or liquids (e.g., water or juice) to
enter this product. Doing so may cause
short circuits, faulty operation, or other
malfunctions.
Immediately turn the power off,
remove the AC adaptor from the outlet,
and request servicing by your retailer,
the nearest Roland Service Center, or an
authorized Roland distributor, as listed
on the “Information” page when:
• The AC adaptor, the power-supply
cord, or the plug has been damaged;
or
• If smoke or unusual odor occurs
• Objects have fallen into, or liquid has
been spilled onto the unit; or
• The unit has been exposed to rain (or
otherwise has become wet); or
• The unit does not appear to operate
normally or exhibits a marked change
in performance.
In households with small children, an
adult should provide supervision until
the child is capable of following all the
rules essential for the safe operation of
the unit.
WARNING
Protect the unit from strong impact.
(Do not drop it!)
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. Exces-
sive 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.
