USING THE UNIT SAFELY

WARNING
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. 22).
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.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Placement
• Do not allow lighting devices that normally are used
while their light source is very close to the unit (such
as a piano light), or powerful spotlights to shine upon
the same area of the unit for extended periods of time.
Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.
• 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.
• Depending on the material and temperature of the
surface on which you place the unit, its rubber feet may
discolor or mar the surface.
Maintenance
• To clean the unit, use a dry, soft cloth; or one that is
slightly dampened. Try to wipe the entire surface using
an equal amount of strength, moving the cloth along
with the grain of the wood. Rubbing too hard in the
same area can damage the finish.
• The pedal of this unit are made of brass. Brass
eventually darkens as the result of the natural
oxidization process. If the brass becomes tarnished,
polish it using commercially available metal polisher.
Care of the Keyboard
• Do not write on the keyboard with any pen or other
implement, and do not stamp or place any marking on
the instrument. Ink will seep into the surface lines and
become unremovable.
• Do not affix stickers on the keyboard. You may be
unable to remove stickers that use strong adhesives,
and the adhesive may cause discoloration.
• To remove stubborn dirt, use a commercially available
keyboard cleaner that does not contain abrasives. Start
by wiping lightly. If the dirt does not come off, wipe
using gradually increasing amounts of pressure while
taking care not to scratch the keys.
Concerning the Care of the Unit (Mirror Finish)
• The surface of this unit has been polished so as
to create a high-gloss, mirror-like finish. Since this
beautiful finish is as delicate as that of the highest
quality, wood-crafted furniture, it needs to be cared for
at regular intervals. Please make sure to observe the
following when caring for the unit.
• For routine care, gently clean the surface using a soft
cloth or a piano-use feather duster. You must avoid
applying any force, since even the tiniest particles
of sand or grit can produce scratches if you wipe
too hard.
• If the finish loses its luster, use a soft cloth
dampened with some polishing liquid to evenly
wipe the surface of the unit.
• Avoid using detergents or other cleaners, as they can
cause the surface finish to deteriorate. This may lead
to the formation of cracks or other imperfections.
Also, do not use chemically-enhanced cleaning
cloths.

CAUTION
Cautions when moving 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 loosening.
• Disconnect the power cord.
• Disconnect all cords coming from external devices.
• Close the lid.
Take care so as not to get fingers pinched
When handling the following moving parts,
take care so as not to get fingers, toes, etc.,
pinched. Whenever a child uses the unit,
an adult should be on hand to provide
supervision and guidance.
• Lid (p. 4)
• Pedals (p. 6)
• Precautions concerning the use of polishing agents
• Refer to the instructions that came with the
polishing agent for instructions on its proper use.
• Use only polishing agents that are designed
specifically for use on the mirror finishes of pianos.
By using any other product, you risk causing
scratches, deformation, discoloration, etc. To
purchase an appropriate product, please consult the
nearest musical instrument store.
• Use the product only on the portions of this unit that
have a mirror-like finish, and using an even touch,
apply it equally over the entire surface. If you apply
more force in one place over another, you risk losing
some of the luster of the finish.
• Store in a location that is out of the reach of small
children. If accidentally ingested, induce vomiting
immediately. Then, see a doctor to obtain a
diagnosis.
Repairs and Data
• 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
• Note when placing a mobile device such as a
smartphone or tablet on this unit
• Handle your device with care to avoid scratching the
unit or the mobile device.
• To prevent your mobile device from overturning or
falling, do not move the music rest or the cover.
• 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.
• Roland assumes no liability concerning the restoration
of any stored content that has been lost.
• Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
• The sound of keys being struck and vibrations produced
by playing an instrument can be transmitted through a
floor or wall to an unexpected extent. Please take care
not to cause annoyance to others nearby.
• Do not apply undue force to the music stand while it
is in use.
• Do not use connection cables that contain a built-in
resistor.
