hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you
should immediately stop using the unit,

WARNING
Do not drop or subject to strong impact
Protect the unit from strong impact.
(Do not drop it!)
Do not share an outlet with an unreasonable number of
other devices
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.
Do not use overseas
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.
