• Do not attempt to repair the FR-7b/FR-5b or FBC-7 or
replace parts within it (except when this manual provides
specific instructions directing you to do so). Refer all ser-
vicing to your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center
or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the
“Information” page.
...................................................................................................................................
• Never use or store the FR-7b/FR-5b or FBC-7 in places
that are:
• 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
• Humid; or are
• Exposed to rain; or are
• Dusty; or are
• Subject to high levels of vibration.
...................................................................................................................................
• When not in use, do not place the FR-5b or FR-7b verti-
cally due to instability. If placed in the vertical position
on the floor/stage, ensure that it leans against a stable
vertical surface e.g. a wall or a heavy musical instrument.

the type described in the operating instructions or as
marked on the bottom of the FBC-7.

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 instrument, either alone or in combination 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 FR-7b/FR-5b or
FBC-7 and consult an audiologist.

pins); or liquids of any kind (water, soft drinks, etc.) to
penetrate the FR-7b/FR-5b or FBC-7.

vide supervision until the child is capable of following all
rules essential for the safe operation of the FR-7b/FR-5b
or FBC-7.
