with an amplifier and headphones or
speakers, may be capable of producing
sound levels that could cause permanent
hearing loss. Do not operate for a long
period of time at a high volume level, or at a level that

occurs
Immediately turn the unit off, remove the
power cord from the outlet, and request
servicing by your retailer, the nearest
Roland Service Center, or an authorized
Roland distributor, as listed on the "Information" page

children are present, be careful so no
mishandling of the unit can take place.
An adult should always be on hand to
provide supervision and guidance.

Protect the unit from strong impact.
(Do not drop it!)
Do not share an outlet with an unreasonable
number of other devices
Do not force the unit's power-supply cord
to share an outlet with an unreasonable
number of other devices. Be especially
careful when using extension cords—the
total power used by all devices you
have connected to the extension cord's outlet must
never exceed the power rating (watts/amperes) for
the extension cord. Excessive loads can cause the
insulation on the cord to heat up and eventually melt
through.

Before using the unit in overseas, consult
with your retailer, the nearest Roland
Service Center, or an authorized Roland
distributor, as listed on the "Information"
page.
