Cautions with the update

in the User bank.
You should save the Live Set on a USB memory before you perform the
update.

procedure.
○ Saving a Live Set File ( LIVE SET Save )
Call up the Live Set from the USB memory after the update completes.
● We recommend that you back up your Live Set files and Songs stored in the
internal memory to a USB memory before you perform the update although
RD-700NX keeps the data with normal updating.
Refer to the following section from the Owner's Manual for the detailed
procedure.
○ Copying a Live Set File ( LIVE SET Copy )
○ Copying a Song (SONG Copy)
● Never apply this update data to any product other than the RD-700NX. This
update data may destroy the data or system program of other products.
● Never power-off your RD-700NX while the update is in progress!
● If a power failure or similar accident occurs during the update process, the
RD-700NX won’t be able to start up in normal operating mode. This will
require servicing, so you will need to contact Roland service center near
