• In households with small children, an adult
should provide supervision until the child is capa-
ble of following all the rules essential for the safe
operation of the unit.
...........................................................................................................
014
• Protect the unit from strong impact.
• (Do not drop it!)
...........................................................................................................
015
• 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 exten-
sion 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 Cen-
ter, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed
on the "Information" page.
...........................................................................................................

• DO NOT play a CD-ROM disc on a conventional
audio CD player. The resulting sound may be of a
level that could cause permanent hearing loss.
Damage to speakers or other system components
may result.
...........................................................................................................

• Do not put anything that contains water (e.g.,
flower vases) on this unit. Also, avoid the use of
insecticides, perfumes, alcohol, nail polish, spray
cans, etc., near the unit. Swiftly wipe away any liq-
uid that spills on the unit using a dry, soft cloth.
...........................................................................................................
• The HP109-PE should be located so that its loca-
tion or position does not interfere with its proper
ventilation.
...........................................................................................................
• Always grasp only the plug on the power-supply
cord when plugging into, or unplugging from, an
outlet or this unit.
...........................................................................................................
• At regular intervals, you should unplug the power
plug and clean it by using a dry cloth to wipe all
dust and other accumulations away from its
prongs. Also, disconnect the power plug from the
power outlet whenever the unit is to remain
unused for an extended period of time. Any accu-
mulation of dust between the power plug and the
power outlet can result in poor insulation and lead
to fire.
...........................................................................................................
• Try to prevent cords and cables from becoming
entangled. Also, all cords and cables should be
placed so they are out of the reach of children.
...........................................................................................................

• Never climb on top of, nor place heavy objects on
the unit.
...........................................................................................................
• Never handle the power cord or its plugs with wet
hands when plugging into, or unplugging from,
an outlet or this unit.
...........................................................................................................
• If you need to move the instrument, take note of
the precautions listed below. At least two persons
are required to safely lift and move the unit. It
should be handled carefully, all the while keeping
it level. Make sure to have a firm grip, to protect
yourself from injury and the instrument from
damage.
• Check to make sure the screws securing the unit to
the stand have not become loose. Fasten them
again securely whenever you notice any loosen-
ing.
• Disconnect the power cord.
• Disconnect all cords coming from external devices.
• Raise the adjusters on the stand (p. 12).
• Close the lid.
• Fold down the music rest.

• Before cleaning the unit, turn off the power and
unplug the power cord from the outlet (p. 9).
...........................................................................................................
110a
• Whenever you suspect the possibility of lightning
in your area, pull the plug on the power cord out
of the outlet.
...........................................................................................................
116
• Be careful when opening/closing the lid so you do
not get your fingers pinched (p. 9). Adult supervi-
sion is recommended whenever small children use
the unit.
...........................................................................................................
118b
• Should you remove the music rest's attachment
screws, screws of stand, and wing nut, make sure
to put them in a safe place out of children's reach,
so there is no chance of them being swallowed
accidentally.
