Do not attempt to repair the unit, or replace parts
within it (except when this manual provides specific
instructions directing you to do so). Refer all servicing
to your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center,
or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the
"Information" page.
Never install the unit in any of the following locations.
• Subject to temperature extremes (e.g., direct
sunlight in an enclosed vehicle, near a heating
duct, on top of heat-generating equipment);
or are
• Damp (e.g., baths, washrooms, on wet floors);
or are
• Exposed to steam or smoke; or are
• Subject to salt exposure; or are
• Humid; or are
• Exposed to rain; or are
• Dusty or sandy; or are
• Subject to high levels of vibration and
shakiness.
This unit should be used only with a rack or stand that
is recommended by Roland.
When using the unit with a rack or stand
recommended by Roland, the rack or stand must be
carefully placed so it is level and sure to remain stable.
If not using a rack or stand, you still need to make
sure that any location you choose for placing the unit
provides a level surface that will properly support the
unit, and keep it from wobbling.
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 attached power-supply cord. Also, the
supplied power cord must not be used with any other
device.
Do not excessively twist or bend the power cord, nor
place heavy objects on it. Doing so can damage the
cord, producing severed elements and short circuits.
Damaged cords are fire and shock hazards!
This unit, either alone or in combination with an
amplifier and headphones or speakers, may be
capable of producing sound levels that could cause
permanent hearing loss. Do not operate for a long
period of time at a high volume level, or at a level that
is uncomfortable. If you experience any hearing loss or
ringing in the ears, you should immediately stop using
the unit, and consult an audiologist.
Do not place containers containing liquid (e.g., flower
vases) on this product. Never allow foreign objects
(e.g., flammable objects, coins, wires) or liquids
(e.g., water or juice) to enter this product. Doing so
may cause short circuits, faulty operation, or other
malfunctions.

WARNING
Immediately turn the power off, remove the AC
adaptor from the outlet, and request servicing by
your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or
an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the
"Information" page when:
• The AC adaptor, the power-supply cord, or the
plug has been damaged; or
• If smoke or unusual odor occurs
• Objects have fallen into, or liquid has been
spilled onto the unit; or
• The unit has been exposed to rain (or otherwise
has become wet); or
• The unit does not appear to operate normally or
exhibits a marked change in performance.
In households with small children, an adult should
provide supervision until the child is capable of
following 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 rating (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 retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center,
or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the
"Information" page.
Batteries must never be recharged, heated, taken
apart, or thrown into fire or water.
DO NOT play a CD-ROM disc on a conventional audio
CD player. The resulting sound may be of a level that
could cause permanent hearing loss. Damage to
speakers or other system components may result.
Never expose Battery to excessive heat such as
sunshine, fire or the like.
CAUTION
The unit and the AC adaptor should be located so
their location or position does not interfere with their
proper ventilation.
This (JUNO-Gi) for use only with Roland stand KS-18Z.
Use with other stands (or carts) is capable of resulting
in instability causing possible injury.
Even if you observe the cautions given in the owner's
manual, certain types of handling may allow this
product to fall from the stand, or cause the stand to
overturn. Please be mindful of any safety issues before
using this product.
Always grasp only the plug on the AC adaptor cord
when plugging into, or unplugging from, an outlet
or this unit.
CAUTION
At regular intervals, you should unplug the AC
adaptor and clean it by using a dry cloth to wipe all
dust and other accumulations away from its prongs.
Also, disconnect the power plug from the power
outlet whenever the unit is to remain unused for an
extended period of time. Any accumulation of dust
between the power plug and the power outlet can
result in poor insulation and lead to fire.
Try to prevent cords and cables from becoming
entangled. Also, all cords and cables should be placed
so they are out of the reach of children.
Never climb on top of, nor place heavy objects on
the unit.
Never handle the AC adaptor or its plugs with wet
hands when plugging into, or unplugging from, an
outlet or this unit.
Before moving the unit, disconnect the AC adaptor
and all cords coming from external devices.
Before cleaning the unit, turn off the power and
unplug the AC adaptor from the outlet (p. 16).
Whenever you suspect the possibility of lightning in
your area, disconnect the AC adaptor from the outlet.
If used improperly, batteries may explode or leak
and cause damage or injury. In the interest of safety,
please read and observe the following precautions
(p. 14).
• Carefully follow the installation instructions for
batteries, and make sure you observe the correct
polarity.
• Avoid using new batteries together with used
ones. In addition, avoid mixing different types of
batteries.
• Remove the batteries whenever the unit is to
remain unused for an extended period of time.
• If a battery has leaked, use a soft piece of cloth or
paper towel to wipe all remnants of the discharge
from the battery compartment. Then install new
batteries. To avoid inflammation of the skin, make
sure that none of the battery discharge gets onto
your hands or skin.
Exercise the utmost caution so that none of the
discharge gets near your eyes. Immediately rinse
the affected area with running water if any of the
discharge has entered the eyes.
• Never keep batteries together with metallic objects
such as ballpoint pens, necklaces, hairpins, etc.
Used batteries must be disposed of in compliance
with whatever regulations for their safe disposal that
may be observed in the region in which you live.
Keep any screws, the SD card or the SD card protector
you may remove and the included USB memory
protector in a safe place out of children's reach,
so there is no chance of them being swallowed
accidentally.
Always turn the phantom power off when connecting
any device other than condenser microphones that
require phantom power. You risk causing damage if
you mistakenly supply phantom power to dynamic
microphones, audio playback devices, or other
devices that don't require such power. Be sure to
check the specifications of any microphone you
intend to use by referring to the manual that came
with it.
(This instrument's phantom power: 48 V DC, 10 mA
Max)
