IMPORTANT NOTES

Power Supply

301
• Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is being used by
an electrical appliance that is controlled by an inverter (such as a
refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or air conditioner), or
that contains a motor. Depending on the way in which the electrical
appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit to
malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it is not practical to use a
separate electrical outlet, connect a power supply noise filter
between this unit and the electrical outlet.
302
• The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long hours of
consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a cause for concern.
307
• Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the power to all
units. This will help prevent malfunctions and/or damage to monitors
or other devices.
Placement
351
• Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment containing
large power transformers) may induce hum. To alleviate the problem,
change the orientation of this unit; or move it farther away from the
source of interference.
352a
• This device may interfere with radio and television reception. Do not
use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.
352b
• Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices, such as
cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such noise could
occur when receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing. Should
you experience such problems, you should relocate such wireless
devices so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch them
off.
355b
• When moved from one location to another where the temperature
and/or humidity is very different, water droplets (condensation) may
form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you
attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore, before using the
unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours, until the conden-
sation has completely evaporated.
360
• Depending on the material and temperature of the surface on which
you place the unit, its rubber feet may discolor or mar the surface. You
can place a piece of felt or cloth under the rubber feet to prevent this
from happening. If you do so, please make sure that the unit will not
slip or move accidentally.
Maintenance
401a
• 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.
402
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid
the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.

Additional Precautions
ADD
• This unit allows you to switch images sat high speed. For some
people, viewing such images can cause headache, nausea, or other
discomfort. Do not use this unit to create video that might cause
these types of health problems.Roland Corporation will accept no
responsibility for any such health problems that may occur in yourself
or in viewers.
552
• Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents of data
that was stored on SD cards once it has been lost. Roland Corporation
assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.
553
• 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.
554
• Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
556
• 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.
558a
• 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).
559a
• When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box (including
padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use
equivalent packaging materials.
562
• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use cables that
incorporate resistors for connecting to this unit. The use of such
cables can cause the sound level to be extremely low, or impossible to
hear. For information on cable specifications, contact the manufac-
turer of the cable.
Before Using SD Cards
704
• Carefully insert the SD card all the way in---until it is firmly in place.
705
• Never touch the terminals of the SD card. Also, avoid getting the
terminals dirty.
708
• SD cards are constructed using precision components; handle the
cards carefully, paying particular note to the following.
• To prevent damage to the cards from static electricity, be sure to
discharge any static electricity from your own body before
handling the cards.
• Do not touch or allow metal to come into contact with the contact
portion of the cards.
• Do not bend, drop, or subject cards to strong shock or vibration.
• Do not keep cards in direct sunlight, in closed vehicles, or other
such locations (storage temperature: -25 to +85 degrees C).
• Do not allow cards to become wet.
• Do not disassemble or modify the cards.
