IMPORTANT NOTES
Power Supply
•  Do not connect this unit to same electrical 
outlet that is being used by an electrical 
appliance that is controlled by an inverter 
or a motor (such as a refrigerator, washing 
machine, microwave oven, or air conditioner). 
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 lter between this unit and the 
electrical outlet.
Placement
•  Using the unit near power ampliers (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.
•  This unit may interfere with radio and 
television reception. Do not use this unit in 
the vicinity of such receivers.
•  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 o.
•  When moved from one location to another 
where the temperature and/or humidity is 
very dierent, 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 condensation has 
completely evaporated.
•  Do not allow objects to remain on top of 
the keyboard. This can be the cause of 
malfunction, such as keys ceasing to produce 
sound.
•  Depending on the material and temperature 
of the surface on which you place the unit, its 
rubber feet may discolor or mar the surface. 
•  Do not place containers or anything else 
containing liquid on top of this unit. Also, 
whenever any liquid has been spilled on the 
surface of this unit, be sure to promptly wipe 
it away using a soft, dry cloth.
Maintenance
•  Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or 
solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of 
discoloration and/or deformation.
Care of the Keyboard
•  Do not write on the keyboard with any pen 
or other implement, and do not stamp or 
place any marking on the instrument. Ink 
will seep into the surface lines and become 
unremovable.
•  Do not ax stickers on the keyboard. You 
may be unable to remove stickers that use 
strong adhesives, and the adhesive may cause 
discoloration.
•  To remove stubborn dirt, use a commercially 
available keyboard cleaner that does not 
contain abrasives. Start by wiping lightly. 
If the dirt does not come o, wipe using 
gradually increasing amounts of pressure 
while taking care not to scratch the keys.
Repairs and Data
•  Before sending the unit away for repairs, be 
sure to make a backup of the data stored 
within it; or you may prefer to write down 
the needed information. Although we will 
do our utmost to preserve the data stored in 
your unit when we carry out repairs, in some 
cases, such as when the memory section is 
physically damaged, restoration of the stored 
content may be impossible. Roland assumes 
no liability concerning the restoration of any 
stored content that has been lost.
Additional Precautions
•  Any data stored within the unit can be lost 
as the result of equipment failure, incorrect 
operation, etc. To protect yourself against the 
irretrievable loss of data, try to make a habit 
of creating regular backups of the data you’ve 
stored in the unit.
•  Roland assumes no liability concerning the 
restoration of any stored content that has 
been lost.
•  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.
•  Never strike or apply strong pressure to the 
display.
•  When 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.
•  A small amount of heat will radiate from the 
unit during normal operation.
•  To avoid disturbing others nearby, try to keep 
the unit’s volume at reasonable levels.
•  The sound of keys being struck and vibrations 
produced by playing an instrument can be 
transmitted through a oor or wall to an 
unexpected extent. Please take care not to 
cause annoyance to others nearby.
•  Use only the specied expression pedal. By 
connecting any other expression pedals, you 
risk causing malfunction and/or damage to 
the unit.
•  Do not use connection cables that contain a 
built-in resistor.
Using External Memories
•  Please observe the following precautions 
when handling external memory devices. 
Also, make sure to carefully observe all the 
precautions that were supplied with the 
external memory device.
•  Do not remove the device while reading/
writing is in progress.
