USING THE UNIT SAFELY
WARNING
To completely turn off power to the unit,
pull out the plug from the outlet
Even with the power switch turned off, this unit is
not completely separated from its main source of
power. When the power needs to be completely
turned off, turn off the power switch on the unit,
then pull out the plug from the 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.
Concerning the Auto Off function
The power to this unit will be turned off
automatically after a predetermined amount of
time has passed since it was last used for playing
music, or its buttons or controls were operated
(Auto Off function). If you do not want the power
to be turned off automatically, disengage the Auto Off function
(p. 15).
Use only the stand that is recommended
This unit should be used only with a stand that is
recommended by Roland.
Do not place in a location that is unstable
When using the unit with a stand recommended
by Roland, the stand must be carefully placed so
it is level and sure to remain stable. If not using a
stand, you still need to make sure that any location
you choose for placing the unit provides a level
surface that will properly support the unit, and keep it from
wobbling.
IMPORTANT NOTES
Placement
5 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.
5 Depending on the material and temperature of the surface
on which you place the unit, its rubber feet may discolor or
mar the surface.
Repairs and Data
5 Before sending the unit away for repairs, be sure to make
a backup of the data stored within it; or you may prefer to
write down the needed information. Although we will do our
utmost to preserve the data stored in your unit when we carry
out repairs, in some cases, such as when the memory section
is physically damaged, restoration of the stored content may
be impossible. Roland assumes no liability concerning the
restoration of any stored content that has been lost.
Additional Precautions
5 Any data stored within the unit can be lost as the result
of equipment failure, incorrect operation, etc. To protect
yourself against the irretrievable loss of data, try to make a
habit of creating regular backups of the data you've stored in
the unit.
5 Roland assumes no liability concerning the restoration of any
stored content that has been lost.

separately). By connecting any other expression pedals, you
risk causing malfunction and/or damage to the unit.
5 Do not use connection cables that contain a built-in resistor.
Using External Memories

external memory devices. Also, make sure to carefully
observe all the precautions that were supplied with the

WARNING
Precautions regarding placement of this
unit on a stand
Be sure to follow the instructions in the Owner's
Manual carefully when placing this unit on a stand
(p. 18).
If it is not set up properly, you risk creating an
unstable situation which could lead to the unit
falling or the stand toppling, and may result in injury.
Use only the supplied AC adaptor and the
correct voltage
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 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.
Use only the supplied power cord
Use only the attached power cord. Also, the
supplied power cord must not be used with any
other device.

CAUTION
Use only the specified stand(s)
This unit is designed to be used in combination
with specific stands (KS-18Z) manufactured by
Roland. If used in combination with other stands,
you risk sustaining injuries as the result of this
product dropping down or toppling over due to a
lack of stability.
Evaluate safety issues before using stands
Even if you observe the cautions given in the
owner's manual, certain types of handling may
allow this product to fall from the stand, or cause
the stand to overturn. Please be mindful of any
safety issues before using this product.
Handle the ground terminal carefully
If you remove the screw from the ground terminal,
be sure to replace it; don't leave it lying around
where it could accidently be swallowed by small
children. When refastening the screw, make that it
is firmly fastened, so it won't come loose.
Precautions concerning use of phantom
power supply
Always turn the phantom power off when
connecting any device other than condenser
microphones that require phantom power. You
risk causing damage if you mistakenly supply
phantom power to dynamic microphones, audio
playback devices, or other devices that don't require such
power. Be sure to check the specifications of any microphone
you intend to use by referring to the manual that came with it.
(This instrument's phantom power: 48 V DC, 10 mA Max)
