USING THE UNIT SAFELY

•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.

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

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

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

•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.

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

•Before using the unit in a foreign country, consult with your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the

“Information” page.

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

•DO NOT play a CD-ROM disc on a conventional audio CD player. The resulting sound may be of a level that could cause permanent hearing loss. Damage to speakers or other system components may result.

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

•Do not put anything that contains water (e.g., flower vases) on this unit. Also, avoid the use of insecticides, perfumes, alcohol, nail polish, spray cans, etc., near

the unit. Swiftly wipe away any liquid that spills on the unit using a dry, soft cloth.

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

•The unit should be located so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation.

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

•Always grasp only the plug on the power-supply cord when plugging into, or unplugging from, an outlet or

this unit.

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

•At regular intervals, you should unplug the power

plug and clean it by using a dry cloth to wipe all dust and other accumulations away from its prongs. Also, disconnect the power plug from the power outlet whenever the unit is to remain unused for an extended period of time. Any accumulation of dust between the power plug and the power outlet can result in poor insulation and lead to fire.

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

•Try to prevent cords and cables from becoming entangled. Also, all cords and cables should be placed so they are out of the reach of children.

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

•Never climb on top of, nor place heavy objects on the unit.

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

•Never handle the power cord or its plugs with wet

hands when plugging into, or unplugging from, an outlet or this unit.

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

•If you need to move the instrument, take note of the precautions listed below. At least two persons are required to safely lift and move the unit. It should be

handled carefully, all the while keeping it level. Make sure to have a firm grip, to protect yourself from injury and the instrument from damage.

•Check to make sure the screws securing the unit to the stand have not become loose. Fasten them again securely whenever you notice any loosening.

•Disconnect the power cord.

•Disconnect all cords coming from external devices.

•Raise the adjusters on the stand (p. 20).

•Close the lid.

•Fold down the music stand.

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

•Before cleaning the unit, turn off the power and

unplug the power cord from the outlet (p. 14).

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

•Whenever you suspect the possibility of lightning in

your area, pull the plug on the power cord out of the outlet.

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

•Be careful when opening/closing the lid so you do not get your fingers pinched (p. 15). Adult

supervision is recommended whenever small children use the unit.

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

•When using the stool, please observe the following points:

•Do not use the stool as a toy, or as a stepping stool.

•Do not allow two or more persons to sit on the stool.

•Do not adjust the height while sitting on the stool.

•Do not sit on the stool if the bolts holding the stool legs are loose. (If the bolts are loose, immedi- ately re-tighten them using the supplied tool.)

•Never insert your hand into the gap (the metal height adjustment mechanism) under the seat lid. Doing so may cause your hand to be pinched or injured.

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

•Always keep the following small parts that may be removed out of the reach of small children to avoid accidental ingestion of these parts.

•Screws for assembling the stand you may remove

•Included wing nut for headphone hook

•Included stereo 1/4” plug adaptor (if a stereo 1/4” plug adaptor is included with your headphones)
