•Immediately turn the power off, remove the adapter
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 adapter’s cord or the plug has been damaged; or
•Objects have fallen into or liquid has been spilled onto
the FR-3; 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.
•Do not force the adapter 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 eventu-
ally melt through.
•Before using the FR-3 in a foreign country, consult with
your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center or an
authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the “Informa-
tion” page.
•The FR-3 should be located so that its location or posi-
tion does not interfere with its proper ventilation.

•Always grasp only the plug on the power-supply cord
when plugging into or unplugging from, an outlet or this
unit.
...................................................................................................................................
•At regular intervals, you should unplug the AC adaptor
and clean it by using a dry cloth to wipe all dust and
other accumulations away from its prongs. Also, discon-
nect the power plug from the power outlet whenever the
FR-3 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.

•If used improperly, batteries may explode or leak and
cause damage or injury. In the interest of safety, please

whatever regulations for their safe disposal that may be
observed in the region in which you live.

•Try to prevent cords and cables from becoming entan-
gled. Also, all cords and cables should be placed out of
the reach of children.
...................................................................................................................................
•Never climb on top of, nor place heavy objects on the
FR-3.
...................................................................................................................................

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

tect yourself from injury and the instrument from dam-
age.

•Should you remove screws, make sure to put them in a
safe place out of children’s reach, so there is no chance
of them being swallowed accidentally.
