Electric Guitar

You can mix stereo audio from AUX IN with the output.

￿The battery compartment is located on the underside.

Insert the included batteries, taking care to orient them correctly.

￿ When turning the unit upside-down, get a bunch of newspapers or magazines, and place them under the four corners or at both ends to prevent damage to the buttons and controls. Also, you should try to orient the unit so no buttons or controls get damaged.

￿ When turning the unit upside-down, handle with care to avoid dropping it, or allowing it to fall or tip over. ￿ Carefully follow the installation instructions for batteries, and make sure you observe the correct polarity. ￿ Avoid using new batteries together with used ones. In addition, avoid mixing different types of batteries. ￿ Remove the batteries whenever the unit is to remain unused for an extended period of time.

￿ If a battery has leaked, use a soft piece of cloth or paper towel to wipe all remnants of the discharge from the battery compartment. Then install new batteries. To avoid inflammation of the skin, make sure that none of the battery discharge gets onto your hands or skin. Exercise the utmost caution so that none of the discharge gets near your eyes. Immediately rinse the affected area with running water if any of the discharge has entered the eyes.

￿ Never keep batteries together with metallic objects such as ballpoint pens, necklaces, hairpins, etc.

￿ Expected battery life under continuous use: Carbon: 5 hours, Alkaline: 13 hours

These figures will vary depending on the actual conditions of use.

￿ When operating on battery power only, the unit's indicator will become dim when battery power gets too low.

Replace the battery as soon as possible.

￿We recommend that you keep batteries installed in the unit even when you're powering it with the AC adaptor.

That way, you’ll be able to continue a performance even if the cord of the AC adaptor gets accidently disconnected from the unit.

Stereo Headphones

￿Note when connecting the ME-70 to the other devices

￿Once the connections have been completed, turn on power to your various devices in

the order specified. By turning on devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to speakers and other devices.

￿To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power on all devices before making any connections.

￿Raise the amp volume only after turning on the power to all connected devices.

￿This unit is equipped with a protection circuit. A brief interval (a few seconds) after power up is required before the unit will operate normally.

￿When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume level of equipment connected to

the inputs (AUX IN) may be low. If this happens, use connection cables that do not contain resistors.

￿The ME-70 has no built-in amp or speakers. To hear sounds, you'll need to provide a guitar amplifier, stereo headphones, or other such equipment.

￿For mono output, connect the cable to just the L/MONO jack.

￿To send the output from the REC OUT/PHONES jack to a recorder or the like, use a special cable (PCS-31L; sold separately). If you use an ordinary guitar cable, only the left-channel audio is output.
