Maintenance - Boss PS-5 Owner's Manual

• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight,
place it near devices that radiate heat, leave
it inside an enclosed vehicle, or otherwise
subject it to temperature extremes. Exces-
sive heat can deform or discolor the unit.
• To avoid possible breakdown, do not use
the unit in a wet area, such as an area ex-
posed to rain or other moisture.

Maintenance

• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a
soft, dry cloth or one that has been slightly
dampened with water. To remove stubborn
dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild,
non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be
sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft,
dry cloth.
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or sol-
vents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of
discoloration and/or deformation.
Additional Precautions
• Use a reasonable amount of care when using
the unit's buttons, sliders, or other controls;
and when using its jacks and connectors.
Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.
• When connecting / disconnecting all cables,
grasp the connector itself-never pull on the
cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts,
or damage to the cable's internal elements.
• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to
keep the unit's volume at reasonable levels.
You may prefer to use headphones, so you do
not need to be concerned about those around
you (especially when it is late at night).
• When you need to transport the unit, pack-
age it in the box (including padding) that it
came in, if possible. Otherwise, you will
need to use equivalent packaging materials.
• Use only the specified expression pedal
(EV-5; sold separately). By connecting any
other expression pedals, you risk causing
malfunction and/or damage to the unit.
