• When the top is open, do not put your head or any other part of your body under it. The lid could be dislodged and then fall on you.

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

When the top is open, do not touch the topboard propstick unless you are in the process of lower-

ing the lid to close the instrument. If you inad- vertently touch the propstick, it could be loosened and the lid could fall on part of your body.

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

When opening the lid, be careful not to open it too far. Opening the lid to greater than the pro- vided the supporting legs permit may damage the unit, or cause the lid to drop. Also, before open-

ing the lid, make sure that no one is in the path of the lid as it is opened.

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

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.
