IMPORTANT NOTES
When using an AC adaptor, use only the specified device (PSA-Series). Use of any other AC adaptor could result in damage,
malfunction or electric shock.
Power Supply
Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the
power to all units; this will help prevent damage or
malfunction.
Do not use this unit on the same power circuit with any
device that will generate line noise; an electric motor or
variable lighting system for example.
The power requirement for this unit is indicated on its
nameplate (rear panel). Ensure that the voltage in your
installation meets this requirement.
Avoid damaging the power cord: do not step on it, place
heavy objects on it, etc.
When disconnecting the AC adaptor from the power
outlet, grasp the plug itself; never pull on the cord.
If the unit is to remain unused for an extended period of
time, unplug the power cord.
When installing or replacing batteries, refer to “ABOUT
CHANGING THE BATTERIES” (p.33).
Placement
Do not subject the unit to temperature extremes (eg.,
direct sunlight in an enclosed vehicle). Avoid using or
storing the unit in dusty or humid areas, or areas that are
subject to high levels of vibration.
Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment
containing large power transformers) may induce hum.
This device may interfere with radio and television recep-
tion. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such
receivers.
Maintenance
For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth
or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To
remove stubborn dirt, use a mild, non-abrasive detergent.
Afterwards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft,
dry cloth.
Never use benzene, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any
kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or
deformation.
Additional Precautions
Protect the unit from strong impact.
Do not allow objects or liquids of any kind to penetrate the
unit. In the event of such an occurrence, discontinue use
immediately. Contact qualified service personnel as soon
as possible.
Before using the unit in a foreign country, consult with
qualified service personnel.
Should a malfunction occur, or if you suspect there is a
problem, discontinue use immediately. Contact qualified
service personnel as soon as possible.
To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not open the unit.
Memory Backup
Please be aware that the contents of memory may at times
be lost; when the unit is sent for repairs or when by some
chance a malfunction has occurred. Important data should
be stored in another MIDI device (eg., a sequencer), or
written down on paper (if possible). During repairs, due
care is taken to avoid the loss of data. However, in certain
cases (such as when circuitry related to memory itself is
out of order), we regret that it may not be possible to
restore the data.
Changing Batteries
Avoid using new batteries together with old ones. In
addition, avoid mixing different types of batteries (eg.,
regular carbon and alkaline batteries).
When replacing batteries, be sure to insert them correctly
(to ensure correct polarity).
Remove the batteries whenever the unit is to remain
unused for an extended period of time.
