IMPORTANT NOTES
291a
In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on page 2–3, please read and observe the
following:
Placement
354a
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it
near devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an
enclosed vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temper-
ature extremes. Excessive heat can deform or
discolor the unit.
355
• To avoid possible breakdown, do not use the unit in
a wet area, such as an area exposed to rain or other
moisture.
356
• Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to
remain on the unit for long periods of time. Such
objects can discolor or otherwise harmfully affect the
finish.
357
• Do not put anything that contains water (e.g., flower
vases) on the unit. Also, avoid the use of insecti-
cides, perfumes, alcohol, nail polish, spray cans, etc.,
near the unit. Swiftly wipe away any liquid that
spills on the unit using a dry, soft cloth.
Maintenance
401a
• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry
cloth or one that has been slightly dampened with
water. To remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impreg-
nated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. After-
wards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with a
soft, dry cloth.
402
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of
any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration
and/or deformation.
Additional Precautions
553
• Use a reasonable amount of care when using the
unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when
using its jacks and connectors. Rough handling can
lead to malfunctions.
556
• When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp
the connector itself—never pull on the cable. This
way you will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the
cable’s internal elements.
558a
• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the
unit’s volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer
to use headphones, so you do not need to be
concerned about those around you (especially when
it is late at night).
558d
• This instrument is designed to minimize the extra-
neous sounds produced when it’s played. However,
since sound vibrations can be transmitted through
floors and walls to a greater degree than expected,
take care not to allow these sounds to become a
nuisance to neighbors, especially when performing
at night and when using headphones.
562
• Use a provided cable or a cable from Roland to make
the connection. If using some other make of
connection cable, please note the following precau-
tions.
• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not
use cables that incorporate resistors for
connecting to this unit. The use of such cables can
cause the sound level to be extremely low, or
impossible to hear. For information on cable
specifications, contact the manufacturer of the
cable.
