Using The Unit Safely - Boss GT-001 Mode D'emploi

USING THE UNIT SAFELY

WARNING
To completely turn off power to the unit, pull out the plug
from the outlet
Even with the power switch turned off, this
unit is not completely separated from its main
source of power. When the power needs to be
completely turned off, turn off the power switch
on the unit, then pull out the plug from the
outlet. For this reason, the outlet into which you
choose to connect the power cord's plug should be one that is
within easy reach and readily accessible.
Concerning the Auto Off function
The power to this unit will be turned off
automatically after a predetermined amount of
time has passed since it was last used for playing
music, or its buttons or controls were operated
(Auto Off function). If you do not want the power
to be turned off automatically, disengage the
Auto Off function (p. 13).
IMPORTANT NOTES
Placement
• Depending on the material and
temperature of the surface on which
you place the unit, its rubber feet may
discolor or mar the surface.
You can place a piece of felt or cloth
under the rubber feet to prevent this
from happening. If you do so, please
make sure that the unit will not slip or
move accidentally.
Maintenance
• 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.
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 specified
on the AC adaptor's body. Other AC adaptors
may use a different polarity, or be designed for
a different voltage, so their use could result in
damage, malfunction, or electric shock.
Precautions concerning use of phantom power supply
Always turn the phantom power off when
connecting any device other than condenser
microphones that require phantom power. You
risk causing damage if you mistakenly supply
phantom power to dynamic microphones, audio
playback devices, or other devices that don't
require such power. Be sure to check the specifications of any
microphone you intend to use by referring to the manual that
came with it.
(This instrument's phantom power: 48 V DC, 10 mA Max)
Repairs and Data

repairs, be sure to make a backup of
the data stored within it; or you may

restoration of any stored content that
has been lost.
Additional Precautions
• Any data stored within the unit can be
lost as the result of equipment failure,
incorrect operation, etc. To protect
yourself against the irretrievable loss
of data, try to make a habit of creating
regular backups of the data you've
stored in the unit.
• Roland assumes no liability
concerning the restoration of any
stored content that has been lost.
• Never strike or apply strong pressure
to the display.
