Roland FP-3 owner manual

Page 3

•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.

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

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

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

•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.

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

• 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.

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

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

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

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

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

• Whenever the unit is to remain unused for an extended period of time, disconnect the AC adaptor.

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

•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 AC adaptor or its plugs with

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

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

• Before moving the unit, disconnect the AC adaptor and all cords coming from external devices.

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

•Before cleaning the unit, turn off the power and unplug the AC adaptor from the outlet (p. 8 ).

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

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

outlet.

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

•Should you remove the screws fastening the music stand or stand, make sure to put them in a safe place out of children’s reach, so there is no chance

of them being swallowed accidentally.
