•Before using this unit, make sure to read the instruc-
tions below, and the Owner’s Manual.
...........................................................................................................
•Do not open or perform any internal modifications
on the unit. (The only exception would be where
this manual provides specific instructions which
should be followed in order to put in place user-
installable options; see p. 43.)
...........................................................................................................
•When using the unit with a rack or stand recom-
mended by Roland, the rack or stand must be care-
fully placed so it is level and sure to remain stable. If
not using a rack or stand, you still need to make
sure that any location you choose for placing the
unit provides a level surface that will properly sup-
port the unit, and keep it from wobbling.
...........................................................................................................
•Use only the attached power-supply cord.
...........................................................................................................
•Avoid damaging the power cord. Do not bend it
excessively, step on it, place heavy objects on it, etc.
A damaged cord can easily become a shock or fire
hazard. Never use a power cord after it has been
damaged.
...........................................................................................................
•In households with small children, an adult should
provide supervision until the child is capable of fol-
lowing 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 insula-
tion on the cord to heat up and eventually melt
through.
...........................................................................................................
•Before using the unit in a foreign country, consult
with your dealer, or qualified Roland service per-
sonnel.
...........................................................................................................
•Always turn the unit off and unplug the power cord
before attempting installation of the circuit board
(WAVE & SYSTEM EXPANSION BOARD TDW series; p.
43).
...........................................................................................................
•Do not put anything that contains water (e.g., flower
vases) on this unit. Also, avoid the use of insecti-
cides, 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.
