Roland AT20s owner manual Using the Unit Safely

USING THE UNIT SAFELY

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.

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

026

•Do not put anything that contains water (e.g., flower vases) on this unit. Also, avoid the use of insecticides, perfumes, alcohol, nail polish, spray cans, etc., near the unit. Swiftly wipe away any liquid that spills on the unit using a dry, soft cloth.

101a

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

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

102b

• Always grasp only the plug on the power-supply

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

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

103a:

•At regular intervals, you should unplug the power plug 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.

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

107b

• Never handle the power cord or its plugs with wet hands when plugging into, or unplugging from, an outlet or this unit.

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

108a

• Before moving the unit, disconnect the power

plug from the outlet, and pull out all cords from external devices.

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

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 bolt 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.

•Close the lid.

•Remove the music stand.

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

109a

• Before cleaning the unit, turn off the power and unplug the power cord from the outlet (p. 16).

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

110a

• Whenever you suspect the possibility of lightning

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

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

116

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

not get your fingers pinched (p. 16). Adult super- vision is recommended whenever small children

use the unit.

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

• When using the bench, please observe the following points:

•Do not use the bench as a toy, or as a stepping stool.

•Do not allow two or more persons to sit on the bench.

•Do not sit on the bench if the bolts holding the bench legs are loose. (If the bolts are loose,

immediately re-tighten them using the supplied wrench.)
