Manual.

.........................................................................................................

002c

Do not open (or modify in any way) the
unit or its AC adaptor.

.........................................................................................................

003

Do not attempt to repair the unit, or
replace parts within it (except when this
manual provides specific instructions
directing you to do so). Refer all servicing to your
retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or an
authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the
“Information” page.

.........................................................................................................

004

Never use or store the unit 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.

.........................................................................................................

014

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

.........................................................................................................

013

In households with small children, an
adult should provide supervision until
the child is capable of following all the
rules essential for the safe operation of the unit.

.........................................................................................................

007

Make sure you always have the unit
placed so it is level and sure to remain
stable. Never place it on stands that
could wobble, or on inclined surfaces.

........................................................................................................

008b

Use only the specified AC adaptor (PSA
series), and make sure the line voltage at
the installation matches the input voltage
specified on the AC adaptor’s body. Other AC
adaptors may use a different polarity, or be
designed for a different voltage, so their use could
result in damage, malfunction, or electric shock.

........................................................................................................

009

Do not excessively twist or bend the
power cord, nor place heavy objects on it.
Doing so can damage the cord, producing
severed elements and short circuits. Damaged
cords are fire and shock hazards!

........................................................................................................

010

This unit, 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 uncom-
fortable. If you experience any hearing loss or
ringing in the ears, you should immediately stop
using the unit, and consult an audiologist.

........................................................................................................

015

Do not force the unit’s power-supply cord
to share an outlet with an unreasonable
number of other devices. Be especially
careful when using extension cords—the total
power used by all devices you have connected to
the extension cord’s outlet must never exceed the
power rating (watts/amperes) for the extension
cord. Excessive loads can cause the insulation on
the cord to heat up and eventually melt through.

........................................................................................................
