V-Accordion
•When connecting/disconnecting cables, grasp the connector itself—never
pull on the cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts or damage to the
cable’s internal elements.
•A small amount of heat will radiate from the instrument during normal
operation. This is perfectly normal.
• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the instrument’s volume
at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use headphones, so you do not
need to be concerned about those around you (especially late at night).
•When you need to transport the instrument, package it in the box
(including padding) that it came in. Otherwise, you will need to use
equivalent packaging materials or a flightcase.
• Use Roland cables to make audio connections. If using some other make
of connection cable, please note the following precautions.
Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use cables that incorpo-
rate resistors for connecting to this unit. The use of such cables can cause
the sound level to be extremely low or impossible to hear. For information
on cable specifications, contact the manufacturer of the cable.
Precautions for optional batteries
• The temperature range for use of the batteries depends on the battery
type being used. Please see the documentation that came with the bat-
teries.
• Do not use or store batteries at high temperature, such as in strong direct
sunlight, in cars during hot weather or directly in front of heaters. This
may cause battery fluid leakage, impaired performance and shorten the
batteries’ service life.
• Do not splash fresh or saltwater on a battery or allow the terminals to
become damp. This may cause heat generation and formation of rust on
the battery and its terminals.
•If newly purchased batteries exhibit rust, generate heat or seem abnormal
in any other way, do not use them. Take them back to your dealer.
• Keep the batteries out of reach of babies or small children.
• Be sure to carefully instruct any person on the proper way of handling a
battery.
• Never dispose of the battery in a fire. Never heat it. Doing so may melt
the insulation, damage the gas release vents or protective devices, cause
combustion through chemical reaction with generated hydrogen, ejec-
tion of battery fluid, bursting or fire.
• Do not use batteries with the positive (+) and negative (–) terminals
reversed, as this may drain the batteries or cause abnormal chemical
reactions.
• Do no strike or drop the batteries. Strong impact can cause leakage of
battery fluid, heat generation, bursting or fire.
• Never try to connect several batteries in parallel as this may cause leak-
age of battery fluid, heat generation, bursting or fire.
• Do not alter or remove protective mechanisms or other parts. Never dis-
assemble the batteries.
•If any fluid from a battery comes in contact with the eyes, flush the eyes
immediately, washing them thoroughly with clean water from a tap or
other source and consult a doctor. Strong alkaline fluid can damage the
eyes and lead to permanent loss of eyesight.
•If skin or clothing comes in contact with any fluid from the battery, wash
the area immediately with clean water from a tap. Battery fluid can cause
skin damage.
•When a battery is no longer usable, dispose of it in accordance with all
applicable local laws and regulations.
•If a battery leaks fluid, changes color or shape or changes in any other
way, do not use it, otherwise it may cause heat generation, bursting or
fire.
Battery handling
•Incorrect handling of batteries, rechargeable batteries, or a battery
charger can cause leakage, overheating, fire, or explosion. Before use, you
must read and strictly observe all of the precautions that accompany the
batteries, rechargeable batteries, or battery charger. When using
rechargeable batteries and a charger, use only the combination of
rechargeable batteries and charger specified by the battery manufacturer.
Strap holder precaution
• Never unscrew the strap holder rings to avoid damaging the FR-2/FR-2b’s
plastic housing, which eventually compromises overall stability and
safety.
