IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ

Power Supply

Do not use this unit on the same power circuit with any
device that will generate line noise (such as an electric mo-
tor or light dimming system).

Th e AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long hours
of consecutive use. Th is is normal, and is not a cause for
concern.

Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the
power to all units. Th is will help prevent malfunctions and/
or damage to speakers or other devices.

Placement

Using the unit near power amplifi ers (or other equipment
containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To
alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this unit, or
move it farther away from the source of interference.

Th is device may interfere with radio and television recep-
tion. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.

Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices,
such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit.
Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call,
or while conversing. Should you experience such problems,
you should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a
greater distance from this unit, or switch them off .

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 temperature extremes. Also, do
not allow lighting devices that normally are used while
their light source is very close to the unit (such as a piano
light), or powerful spotlights to shine upon the same area
of the unit for extended periods of time. Excessive heat can
deform or discolor the unit.

When moved from one location to another where the tem-
perature and/or humidity is very diff erent, water droplets
(condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or mal-
function may result if you attempt to use the unit in this
condition. Th
erefore, before using the unit, you must allow
it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has
completely evaporated.

Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain
on the unit for long periods of time. Such objects can dis-
color or otherwise harmfully aff ect the fi nish.

Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like on the SKX. Peel-
ing such matter off the SKX may damage the exterior fi n-
ish.

Maintenance

To clean the unit, use a dry, soft cloth; or one that is slightly
dampened.

To remove stubborn dirt off plastic parts, use a cloth im-
pregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards,
be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.
Try to wipe the entire surface using an equal amount of
strength, moving the cloth along with the grain of the
wood. Rubbing too hard in the same area can damage the
fi nish.

Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any
kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or defor-
mation.

Additional Precautions

Please be aware that the contents of memory can be irre-
trievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the improper
operation of the unit. To protect yourself against the risk of
losing important data, we recommend that you periodically
save a backup copy of important data you have stored in the
unit’s memory in another MIDI device (to another storage
medium (such as a USB Flash Drive or an external hard
drive).

Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents
of data once it has been lost. Hammond assumes no liabil-
ity concerning such loss of data.

Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s but-
tons, sliders, or other controls, and when using its jacks and
connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.

When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the con-
nector itself - never pull on the cable. Th is will avoid caus-
ing short circuits, or damage to the cable’s internal ele-
ments.

To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit's
volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use head-
phones, so you do not need to be concerned about those
around you (especially when it is late at night).

When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box
(including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise,
you will need to use equivalent packaging materials.
