IMPORTANT NOTES
291a
In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on page 2, please read and observe the
following:
Placement
354a
• 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 temper-
ature extremes. Excessive heat can deform or
discolor the unit.
355
• To avoid possible breakdown, do not use the unit in
a wet area, such as an area exposed to rain or other
moisture.
Maintenance
401a
• 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 impreg-
nated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent. After-
wards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with a
soft, dry cloth.
402
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of
any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration
and/or deformation.
Additional Precautions
553
• Use a reasonable amount of care when using its
output jack. Rough handling can lead to malfunc-
tions.
556
• When connecting / disconnecting all 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.
558d
• This instrument is designed to minimize the extra-
neous sounds produced when it’s played. However,
since sound vibrations can be transmitted through
floors and walls to a greater degree than expected,
take care not to allow these sounds to become a
nuisance to neighbors, especially when performing
at night and when using headphones.
559a
• When you need to transport the unit, package it in
the box (including padding) that it came in, if
possible. Otherwise, you will need to use equivalent
packaging materials.
562
• Use the supplied cable or a cable from Roland to
make the connection. If using some other make of
connection cable, please note the following precau-
tions.
• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not
use cables that incorporate 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.

• To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers
or other devices, always turn down the volume, and
turn off the power on all devices before making any
connections.
add1
• The hoop’s rubber portion is an expendable item,
whose performance deteriorates with extended use.
Continued use of this rubber component beyond its
useful service life may result in malfunction or
damage to the hoop. If this occurs, replace the hoop
and insert.
For more on replacing the hoop rubber, consult with
your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or
an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the
"Information" page.
add2
• Do not apply excessive force to the sensor located
below the center of the head. Doing so can interfere
with accurate detection, and may damage it.
add3
• Due to the nature of the materials used in the sensor,
changes in room temperature may affect the sensi-
tivity of the sensor.
add3
• Be sure to adjust the head tension before using the
RP-2. Striking the pad while the head is loosened
may damage the sensor and head.
