USING THE UNIT SAFELY
• Do not open (or modify in any way) the instrument, and
avoid damaging the AC adapter.
• Do not attempt to repair the instrument, or replace parts
within it (except when this manual provides specific
instructions directing you to do so). Refer all servicing to
your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or an
authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the “Informa-
tion” page.
• If you do not use the AX-Synth as a shoulder keyboard,
make sure you always have it placed so it is level and sure
to remain stable. Never place it on stands that could
wobble, or on inclined surfaces.
• Never use or store the AX-Synth in any of the following
locations:
• Subject to temperature extremes (e.g., direct sunlight
in an enclosed vehicle, near a heating duct, on top of
heat-generating equipment); or are
• Damp (e.g., baths, washrooms, on wet floors); or are
• Exposed to steam or smoke; or are
• Subject to salt exposure; or are
• Humid; or are
• Exposed to rain; or are
• Dusty; or are
• Subject to high levels of vibration.
•Make sure you always have the unit placed so it is level
and sure to remain stable. Never place it on stands that
could wobble, or on inclined surfaces.
• Be sure to use only the AC adaptor supplied with the unit.
Also, make sure the line voltage at the installation
matches the input voltage specified on the AC adaptor's
body. Other AC adaptors may use a different polarity, or
be designed for a different voltage, so their use could result in
damage, malfunction, or electric shock.
• Use only the attached power-supply cord. Also, the sup-
plied power cord must not be used with any other device.
• Do not excessively twist or bend the adaptor cord, nor
place heavy objects on it. Doing so can damage the cord,
producing severed elements and short circuits. Damaged
cords are fire and shock hazards!
• This instrument, either alone or in combination with an
amplifier and headphones or speakers, may be capable of
producing sound levels that could cause permanent hear-
ing 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 AX-Synth 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 AX-Synth.
•Immediately turn the power off, disconnect the 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
•If smoke or unusual odor occurs
• 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 pro-
vide supervision until the child is capable of following all
the rules essential for the safe operation of the unit.
• Protect the AX-Synth 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 AX-Synth in a foreign country, consult
with your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or
an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the “Infor-
mation” page.
