Power Supply

•  To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, 

always make sure to turn off the power on all your 
equipment before you make any connections.

Placement

•  This device may interfere with radio and television 

reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of 
such receivers.

•  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. Excessive heat can deform 
or discolor the unit.

•  When moved from one location to another where 

the temperature and/or humidity is very different, 
water droplets (condensation) may form inside 
the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if 
you attempt to use the unit in this condition. 
Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it 
to stand for several hours, until the condensation 
has completely evaporated.

•  Do not allow objects to remain on top of the 

keyboard. This can be the cause of malfunction, 
such as keys ceasing to produce sound.

•  Depending on the material and temperature of 

the surface on which you place the unit, its rubber 
feet may discolor or mar the surface. 
You can place a piece of felt or cloth under the 
rubber feet to prevent this from happening. If you 
do so, please make sure that the unit will not slip 
or move accidentally.

 WARNING

Adults must provide supervision in places where 

children are present

When using the unit in locations where 
children are present, be careful so no 
mishandling of the unit can take place. An 
adult should always be on hand to provide 
supervision and guidance.

Do not drop or subject to strong impact

Protect the unit from strong impact.
(Do not drop it!)

Do not use a CD-ROM in an audio CD player or DVD 

player

DO NOT play a CD-ROM disc on a 
conventional audio CD player. The 
resulting sound may be of a level that 
could cause permanent hearing loss. 
Damage to speakers or other system 
components may result.

 CAUTION

Manage cables for safety

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.

Avoid climbing on top of the unit, or placing heavy 

objects on it

Never climb on top of, nor place heavy 
objects on the unit.

Disconnect everything before moving the unit

Disconnect all cords coming from external 
devices before moving the unit.
