IMPORTANT NOTES

291b

In addition to the items listed under “IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS” and “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on pages 3,
4 and 5, please read and observe the following:

Power Supply

301

• Do not use this unit on the same power circuit with any

device that will generate line noise (such as an electric
motor or variable lighting system).

307

• Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the

power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions
and/or damage to speakers or other devices.

Placement

351

• Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other equipment

containing large power transformers) may induce hum.
To alleviate the problem, change the orientation of this
unit; or move it farther away from the source of inter-
ference.

352

• This device may interfere with radio and television

reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such
receivers.

354b

• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight, place it near

devices that radiate heat, leave it inside an enclosed
vehicle, or otherwise subject it to temperature extremes.
Also, do not allow lighting devices that normally are used
while their light source is very close to the unit (such as a
piano light), or powerful spotlights to shine upon the
same area of the unit for extended periods of time.
Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.

355

• To avoid possible breakdown, do not use the unit in a wet

area, such as an area exposed to rain or other moisture.

356

• Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain

on the piano for long periods of time. Such objects can
discolor or otherwise harmfully affect the finish.

357

• Do not put anything that contains water (e.g., flower

vases) on the piano. 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.

358

• Do not allow objects to remain on top of the keyboard.

This can be the cause of malfunction, such as keys ceasing
to produce sound.

359

• Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument.

Peeling such matter off the instrument may damage the
exterior finish.

Maintenance

401b

• To clean the unit, use a dry, soft cloth; or one that is

slightly dampened. Try to wipe the entire surface using an
equal amount of strength, moving the cloth along with the
grain of the wood. Rubbing too hard in the same area can
damage the finish.

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.

558a

• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit’s

volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use
headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about
those around you (especially when it is late at night).

559b

• When you need to transport the unit, pack it in shock-

absorbent material. Transporting the unit without doing
so can cause it to become scratched or damaged, and
could lead to malfunction.

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.
