IMPORTANT NOTES

Additional Precautions
• Please be aware that the contents of memory can
be irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction,
or the improper operation of the unit. To protect
yourself against the risk of loosing important data,
we recommend that you periodically save a backup
copy of important data you have stored in the unit’s
memory on USB flash drives.
• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore
the contents of data that was stored in the unit’s
memory and USB flash drives once it has been lost.
Roland Corporation assumes no liability concerning
such loss of data.
• 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.
• Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
• 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.
• A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit
during normal operation.
• 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.
• 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.
• Use only the specified expression pedal (EV-5; sold
separately). By connecting any other expression
pedals, you risk causing malfunction and/or
damage to the unit.
• 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.
• The usable range of D Beam controller will become
extremely small when used under strong direct
sunlight. Please be aware of this when using the D
Beam controller outside.
• The sensitivity of the D Beam controller will change
depending on the amount of light in the vicinity of
the unit. If it does not function as you expect, adjust
the sensitivity as appropriate for the brightness of
your location (p. 84).
Handling External Memories
• Carefully insert the USB flash drives all the way
in—until it is firmly in place.
• Never touch the terminals of the USB flash drives.
Also, avoid getting the terminals dirty.
• USB flash drives are constructed using precision
components; handle the cards carefully, paying
particular note to the following.
• To prevent damage to the cards from static
electricity, be sure to discharge any static
electricity from your own body before
handling the cards.
• Do not touch or allow metal to come into
contact with the contact portion of the cards.
• Do not bend, drop, or subject cards to strong
shock or vibration.
• Do not keep cards in direct sunlight, in closed
vehicles, or other such locations.
• Do not allow cards to become wet.
• Do not disassemble or modify the cards.
Handling CDs / DVDs
• Avoid touching or scratching the shiny underside
(encoded surface) of the disc. Damaged or dirty
DVD discs may not be read properly. Keep your
discs clean using a commercially available DVD
cleaner.
