Ground termi-
nal
927
Depending on the circumstances of a partic-
ular setup, you may experience a discomfort-
ing sensation, or perceive that the surface
feels gritty to the touch when you touch this
device, microphones connected to it, or the
metal portions of other objects, such as gui-
tars. This is due to an infinitesimal electrical
charge, which is absolutely harmless. How-
ever, if you are concerned about this, connect
the ground terminal with an external
ground. When the unit is grounded, a slight
hum may occur, depending on the particu-
lars of your installation. If you are unsure of
the connection method, contact the nearest
Roland Service Center, or an authorized Ro-
land distributor, as listed on the “Informa-
tion” page.
Unsuitable places for connection
Water pipes (may result in shock or
electrocution)
Gas pipes (may result in fire or
explosion)
Telephone-line ground or lightning rod
(may be dangerous in the event of
lightning)
Cord hook
924fig.CordHook.j
To prevent the inadvert-
ent disruption of power
to your unit (should the
plug be pulled out acci-
dentally), and to avoid
applying undue stress
to the AC adaptor jack,
anchor the power cord
using the cord hook, as
shown in the illustra-
tion.
