• Before using this unit, make sure to read the instruc-
tions below, and the Owner's Manual.
.........................................................................................................
• Do not open or perform any internal modifications on
the unit.
.........................................................................................................
• 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.
.........................................................................................................
• Avoid damaging the power cord. Do not bend it
excessively, step on it, place heavy objects on it, etc. A
damaged cord can easily become a shock or fire hazard.
Never use a power cord after it has been damaged.
.........................................................................................................
• In households with small children, an adult should
provide supervision until the child is capable of follow-
ing all the rules essential for the safe operation of the
unit.
.........................................................................................................
• Protect the unit from strong impact.
(Do not drop it!)
.........................................................................................................
• 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 rat-
ing (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 dealer, or qualified Roland service personnel.
