USING THE UNIT SAFELY
WARNING
Concerning the Auto Off function
The power to this unit will be
turned off automatically after a
predetermined amount of time
has passed since it was last used
for playing music, or its buttons or controls
were operated (Auto Off function). If you
do not want the power to be turned off
automatically, disengage the Auto Off
function (p. 3).
Use only the stand that is recommended
This unit should be used only with
a stand that is recommended by
Roland.
Do not place in a location that is unstable
When using the unit with a stand
recommended by Roland, the
stand must be carefully placed so
it is level and sure to remain stable.
If not using a stand, you still need to make
sure that any location you choose for placing
the unit provides a level surface that will
properly support the unit, and keep it from
wobbling.
WARNING
Precautions regarding placement of this unit on a
stand
Be sure to follow the instructions
in the Owner’s Manual carefully
when placing this unit on a stand
(p. 3).
If it is not set up properly, you risk creating
an unstable situation which could lead to the
unit falling or the stand toppling, and may
result in injury.
Use only the supplied AC adaptor and the correct
voltage
Be sure to use only the AC adaptor
supplied with the unit. Also,
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.
Use only the supplied power cord
Use only the attached power cord.
Also, the supplied power cord must
not be used with any other device.
CAUTION
Use only the specified stand(s)
This unit is designed to be used in
combination with specific stands
(KS-12, KS-10Z) manufactured by
Roland. If used in combination with
other stands, you risk sustaining injuries as
the result of this product dropping down or
toppling over due to a lack of stability.
Evaluate safety issues before using stands
Even if you observe the cautions
given in the owner’s manual,
certain types of handling may
allow this product to fall from the
stand, or cause the stand to overturn. Please
be mindful of any safety issues before using
this product.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Power Supply
• Place the AC adaptor so that the side with text is
downward.
Placement
• 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.
Care of the Keyboard
• Do not write on the keyboard with any pen or other
implement, and do not stamp or place any marking
on the instrument. Ink will seep into the surface lines
and become unremovable.
• Do not affix stickers on the keyboard. You may be
unable to remove stickers that use strong adhesives,
and the adhesive may cause discoloration.
• To remove stubborn dirt, use a commercially
available keyboard cleaner that does not contain
abrasives. Start by wiping lightly. If the dirt does not
come off, wipe using gradually increasing amounts
of pressure while taking care not to scratch the keys.
Repairs and Data
• Before sending the unit away for repairs, be sure to
make a backup of the data stored within it; or you
may prefer to write down the needed information.
Although we will do our utmost to preserve the
data stored in your unit when we carry out repairs,
in some cases, such as when the memory section
is physically damaged, restoration of the stored
content may be impossible. Roland assumes no
liability concerning the restoration of any stored
content that has been lost.
Additional Precautions
• Any data stored within the unit can be lost as the
result of equipment failure, incorrect operation, etc.
To protect yourself against the irretrievable loss of
data, try to make a habit of creating regular backups
of the data you’ve stored in the unit.
• Roland assumes no liability concerning the
restoration of any stored content that has been lost.
• Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
• The sound of keys being struck and vibrations
produced by playing an instrument can be
transmitted through a floor or wall to an unexpected
extent. Please take care not to cause annoyance to
others nearby.
• Use only the specified expression pedal. By
connecting any other expression pedals, you risk
causing malfunction and/or damage to the unit.
• Do not use connection cables that contain a built-in
resistor.
Using External Memories
• Please observe the following precautions when
handling external memory devices. Also, make sure
to carefully observe all the precautions that were
supplied with the external memory device.
• Do not remove the device while reading/writing
is in progress.
• To prevent damage from static electricity,
discharge all static electricity from your person
before handling the device.
