2. INSTALLATION
2.1. Usage Precautions
The MicroFreak uses an external power adapter. Do not use any power supply or adapter
other than the one provided by Arturia. Arturia accepts no responsibility for damage caused
by use of an unauthorized power supply.
The MicroFreak has a touch capacitive keyboard. It can be used with a power bank, but for
it to be fully functional the MicroFreak must be properly grounded. It's why we recommend
that you use the three pin wall plug provided by Arturia.
Use the included adapters (1/8" TRS jack to 5-pin DIN, grey) to connect your external MIDI
devices to the MicroFreak.
2.2. Warning
Do not place this product in a place or position where one might walk on, trip over, or
roll anything over power cords or connecting cables. The use of an extension cord is not
recommended. However if you must use one, make sure that the cord has the ability to
handle the maximum current needed by this product. Please consult a local electrician for
more information on your power requirements. This product should be used only with the
components supplied or recommended by Arturia. When used with any components, please
observe all safety markings and instructions that accompany the accessory products.
2.3. Notice
The manufacturer’s warranty does not cover service charges incurred due to a lack of
knowledge relating to how a function or feature works (when the unit is operating as
designed); reading the manual is the owner's responsibility. Please study this manual
carefully and consult your dealer before requesting service.
2.4. Precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Read and understand all the instructions.
• Always follow the instructions on the instrument.
• Before cleaning the instrument, always remove the electrical plug from the
outlet, as well as the USB cable. When cleaning, use a soft and dry cloth. Do not
use gasoline, alcohol, acetone, turpentine or any other organic solutions; do not
use liquid cleaner, spray or cloth that’s too wet.
• Do not use the instrument near water or moisture, such as a bathtub, sink,
swimming pool or similar place. Do not place the instrument in an unstable
position where it might accidentally fall over.
• Do not place heavy objects on the instrument. Do not block openings or vents of
the instrument; these locations are used for ventilation to prevent the instrument
from overheating. Do not place the instrument near a heat vent or any place of
poor air circulation.
• Use only the provided AC adapter, as specified by Arturia.
• Make sure the line voltage in your location matches the input voltage specified
on the AC power adapter.
• Do not open and insert anything into the instrument, as this could cause a fire or
electrical shock.
