the nearest Roland Service Center, or an
authorized Roland distributor, as listed on
the “Information” page.
Never install the unit 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
oors); 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 sandy; or are
• Subject to high levels of vibration and
shakiness.
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 specied on the AC adaptor’s
body. Other AC adaptors may use a dierent
polarity, or be designed for a dierent
voltage, so their use could result in damage,
malfunction, or electric shock.
Use only the attached power-supply cord.
Also, the supplied power cord must not be
used with any other device.
Do not excessively twist or bend the power
cord, nor place heavy objects on it. Doing
so can damage the cord, producing severed
elements and short circuits. Damaged cords
are re and shock hazards!
This unit, either alone or in combination with
an amplier and headphones or speakers,
may be capable of producing sound levels
that could cause permanent hearing 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 unit, and
consult an audiologist.

(e.g., ower vases) on this product. Never
allow foreign objects (e.g., ammable
objects, coins, wires) or liquids (e.g., water
or juice) to enter this product. Doing so may
cause short circuits, faulty operation, or
other malfunctions.
Immediately turn the power o, remove the
AC 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

(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 unit in a foreign country,
consult with your retailer, the nearest Roland
Service Center, or an authorized Roland
distributor, as listed on the “Information”
page.
