IMPORTANT NOTES
357
• Do not put anything that contains water (e.g., flower
vases) on the unit. Also, avoid the use of insecticides,
perfumes, alcohol, nail polish, spray cans, etc., near the
unit. Swiftly wipe away any liquid that spills on the unit
using a dry, soft cloth.
359
• Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this
instrument. Peeling such matter off the instrument may
damage the exterior finish.
• During Operation, this device must be placed at a
distance of no less than 50 cm from any walls.
• Do not allow objects to remain on top of the unit while it
is in operation.
• If you cover the heat sink, their function is defeated,
and their temperature can rise to overly high levels,
which could cause burns if they are accidentally
touched.
• Placing heavy objects on this unit may result in injury
if it overturns or falls.
• During setup and transport, be careful not to damage the
vibrating portions (the speaker cone and diaphragm).
• Be sure to place the monitor so that the heat sink on the
rear panel is not obstructed. Also, make sure the monitor
does not touch any curtains or other fabrics.
• The heat sink performs cooling when the monitor is
placed as shown below. Do not place the monitor on its
side or upside down.

• When this device is in operation, the heat sink located on
the rear panel will become hot. Take care not to touch
them with your hands.
Maintenance
401a
• For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth
or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To
remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a
mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to
wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.
402
• Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any
kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or
deformation.
Additional Precautions
553
• 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.
556
• When connecting / 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.
557
• A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit during
normal operation.
558b
• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit’s
volume at reasonable levels (especially when it is late at
night).
559a
• When you need to transport the unit, package it in the
box (including padding) that it came in, if possible.
Otherwise, you will need to use equivalent packaging
materials.
562
• Use a cable from Roland to make the connection. If using
some other make of connection cable, please note the
following precautions.
• Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use
cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this
unit. The use of such cables can cause the sound level
to be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For infor-
mation on cable specifications, contact the manufac-
turer of the cable.
