Roland HP-1 owner manual English

Page 3

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, con- sult with your retailer, the nearest Roland Service

Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the “Information” page.

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

The unit should be located so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper venti-

lation.

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

• Always grasp only the plug on the power-supply

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

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

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 knob bolts securing the unit to the stand have not become loose. Fasten them again securely whenever you notice any loos- ening.

Disconnect the power cord.

Disconnect all cords coming from external devices.

Raise the adjusters on the stand (see page 7).

Close the lid.

Fold down the music stand.

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