that is recommended by Roland.
When using the unit with a stand 
recommended by Roland, the stand must 
be carefully placed so it is level and sure 
to remain stable. If not using a stand, you 
still need to make sure that any location

marked on the rear side of unit.
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 re and shock hazards!
This unit, either alone or in combination 
with an amplier 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.
Never allow foreign objects (e.g., 
ammable 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 o, remove 
the power cord 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 power-supply cord or the plug has 
been damaged; or

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.
