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 uncomfortable. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you should immediately stop using the unit, and consult an

audiologist.

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

011

Do not allow any objects (e.g., flammable material, coins, pins); or liquids of any kind (water, soft drinks, etc.) to penetrate the unit.

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

012b

Immediately turn the power off, remove the AC adaptor from the outlet, and request servicing by your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the “Information” page when:

The AC adaptor, the power-supply cord, or the plug has been damaged; or

Objects have fallen into, or liquid has been spilled onto the unit; or

The unit has been exposed to rain (or otherwise has become wet); or

The unit does not appear to operate normally or

exhibits a marked change in performance.

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

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.

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

014

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

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

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.

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

016

• 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.

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

101b

The unit and the AC adaptor should be located so their location or position does not interfere with

their proper ventilation.

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

102c

Always grasp only the plug on the AC adaptor cord when plugging into, or unplugging from, an outlet or this unit.

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

103b

At regular intervals, you should unplug the AC adaptor 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.

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

104

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.

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

106

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

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

107c

• Never handle the AC adaptor or its plugs with

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

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

108d: Selection

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.

Remove the lid.

Remove the music stand.

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

109b

Before cleaning the unit, turn off the power and unplug the AC adaptor from the outlet (p. 10).

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

110b

• Whenever you suspect the possibility of lightning in your area, disconnect the AC adaptor from the outlet.

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

116

• Be careful when opening/closing the lid so you do

not get your fingers pinched (p. 11). Adult super- vision is recommended whenever small children

use the unit.

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

118

• Should you remove the caps, screws and cord cramps, make sure to put them in a safe place out of children’s reach, so there is no chance of them being swallowed accidentally.
