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 or the power-supply cord 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 or the body of the

AC adaptor 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 body, 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. 23).

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

Whenever you suspect the possibility of

lightning in your area, disconnect the AC adaptor from the outlet.

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

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.
