IMPORTANT NOTES
USING THE UNIT SAFELY
WARNING
Concerning the AUTO OFF function

turned o automatically after a
predetermined amount of time
has passed since it was last used
for playing music, or its buttons or

Use only the stand that is recommended
This unit should be used only with
a stand that is recommended by
Roland.
Do not place in a location that is unstable
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 you choose for
placing the unit provides a level surface that
will properly support the unit, and keep it from
wobbling.
Precautions regarding placement of this unit on a
stand
Be sure to follow the instructions in
the Owner’s Manual carefully when
placing this unit on a stand (refer
to the setup guide).
If it is not set up properly, you risk
creating an unstable situation which could
lead to the unit falling or the stand toppling,
and may result in injury.
WARNING
Use only the supplied AC adaptor and the correct
voltage
Be sure to use only the AC
adaptor supplied with the unit.
Also, make sure the line voltage
at the installation matches the
input voltage specied on the AC
adaptor’s body. Other AC adaptors may use a
dierent polarity, or be designed for a dierent
voltage, so their use could result in damage,
malfunction, or electric shock.
Use only the supplied power cord
Use only the attached power cord.
Also, the supplied power cord must
not be used with any other device.
CAUTION
Use only the specied stand(s)

combination with specic stands
(MDS series) manufactured by
Roland. If used in combination with
other stands, you risk sustaining
injuries as the result of this product dropping
down or toppling over due to a lack of stability.
Evaluate safety issues before using stands
Even if you observe the cautions
given in the owner’s manual,
certain types of handling may
allow this product to fall from
the stand, or cause the stand to
overturn. Please be mindful of any safety issues
before using this product.
