004
• 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 floors); 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.
..............................................................
007
• 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.
..............................................................
008b
• Use only the specified AC
adaptor (PSA series), and make
sure the line voltage at the
installation matches the input
voltage specified on the AC
adaptor's body. Other AC
adaptors may use a different
polarity, or be designed for a
different voltage, so their use
could result in damage,
malfunction, or electric shock.
..............................................................
009
• 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 fire
and shock hazards!
..............................................................
011
• Do not allow any objects (e.g.,
flammable material, coins, pins);
or liquids of any kind (water, soft
drinks, etc.) to penetrate the
unit.

• This unit, either alone or in
combination with an amplifier
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.
..............................................................
012c
• Immediately turn the power off,
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 or the power-supply
cord 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
• The unit does not appear to operate
normally or exhibits a marked change
in performance.
..............................................................
013
• In households with small
children, an adult should
provide supervision until the
child is capable 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 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
