IMPORTANT NOTES
Power Supply
• Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet
that is being used by an electrical appliance that
is controlled by an inverter (such as a refrig-
erator, washing machine, microwave oven, or air
conditioner), or that contains a motor. Depending
on the way in which the electrical appliance is
used, power supply noise may cause this unit to
malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it
is not practical to use a separate electrical outlet,
connect a power supply noise lter between this
unit and the electrical outlet.
• Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn
o the power to all units. This will help prevent
malfunctions and/or damage to speakers or other
devices.
• Although the LCD and LEDs are switched o
when the POWER switch is switched o, this does
not mean that the unit has been completely
disconnected from the source of power. If you need
to turn o the power completely, rst turn o the
POWER switch, then unplug the power cord from
the power outlet. For this reason, the outlet into
which you choose to connect the power cord’s plug
should be one that is within easy reach and readily
accessible.
Placement
• Using the unit near power ampliers (or other
equipment containing large power transformers)
may induce hum. To alleviate the problem, change
the orientation of this unit; or move it farther away
from the source of interference.
• This device may interfere with radio and television
reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of
such receivers.
• Noise may be produced if wireless communications
devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the
vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when
receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing.
Should you experience such problems, you should
relocate such wireless devices so they are at a
greater distance from this unit, or switch them o.
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place
it near devices that radiate heat, leave it inside
an enclosed vehicle, or otherwise subject it to
temperature extremes. Excessive heat can deform
or discolor the unit.
• When moved from one location to another where
the temperature and/or humidity is very dierent,
water droplets (condensation) may form inside
the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you
attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore,
before using the unit, you must allow it to stand
for several hours, until the condensation has
completely evaporated.
• Do not allow objects to remain on top of the
keyboard. This can be the cause of malfunction,
such as keys ceasing to produce sound.
• Depending on the material and temperature of the
surface on which you place the unit, its rubber feet
may discolor or mar the surface.
You can place a piece of felt or cloth under the
rubber feet to prevent this from happening. If you
do so, please make sure that the unit will not slip or
move accidentally.
• Do not put anything that contains water on this
unit. Also, avoid the use of insecticides, 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.
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 cloth
impregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent.
Afterwards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly
with a soft, dry cloth.
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of
any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration
and/or deformation.
Repairs and Data
• Please be aware that all data contained in the
unit’s memory may be lost when the unit is sent for
repairs. Important data should always be backed up
USB ash drives, or written down on paper (when
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, and Roland assumes no liability
concerning such loss of data.
