Before You Play

Connecting the AC Adaptor

NOTE

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.

1.Connect the supplied AC adaptor and Power Cord.

4.Plug the Power Cord into a power outlet.

NOTE

To prevent the inadvertent disruption of power to your unit (should the plug be pulled out accidentally), to avoid applying undue stress to the DC In connector, anchor the power cord using the cord hook, as shown in the diagram. Even if the cord is fastened, strong tension applied to the cord may cause it to be damaged or broken. Be careful not to pull the cord accidentally, or to apply strong pressure to it.

In some cases, depending on the environment in which the unit is installed, the surface of the panel may sometimes feel rough and grainy. This is due to an infinitesimal electrical charge, which is absolutely harmless. However, if you are concerned about this, connect the ground terminal (see above figure) with an external ground. When the unit is grounded, a slight hum may occur, depending on the particulars of your installation. If you are unsure of the connection method, contact the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the “Information” page.

Unsuitable places for connection

Water pipes (may result in shock or electrocution)

Gas pipes (may result in fire or explosion)

Telephone-line ground or lightning rod (may be dangerous in the event of lightning)

Installing the Music Stand

1.Attach the included screws to the F-50’s rear panel.

Be sure to use the supplied screws for attaching the music stand.

Turn the screws clockwise until they’re held in place–but don’t tighten them yet.

2.Put the music stand between the screws and the F-50’s body.

3.While supporting the music stand with one hand, secure it in place by turning the screws.

When attaching the music stand, support it firmly with one hand to make sure that you don’t drop it. Be careful, so you don’t get your fingers pinched.

4.To remove the music stand, support it with one hand while loosening the screws.

After removing the music stand, don’t forget to retighten the screws.

NOTE

When moving the piano, be sure to remove the music stand as a safety precaution.

NOTE

Do not apply excessive force to the installed music stand.
