Additional Precautions
551
Please be aware that the contents of memory can be
irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the
improper operation of the unit. To protect yourself against
the risk of loosing important data, we recommend that
you periodically save a backup copy of important data
you have stored in the unit’s memory on a storage device
(e.g., CD-R/RW disc or Zip disk).
552
Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents
of data that was stored on a storage device (e.g.,
CD-R/RW disc or Zip disk) once it has been lost. Roland
Corporation assumes no liability concerning such loss of
data.
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.
554
Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
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).
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.
Handling Zip Disks
651
Zip disks contain a plastic disk with a thin coating of
magnetic storage medium. Microscopic precision is
required to enable storage of large amounts of data on
such a small surface area. To preserve their integrity,
please observe the following when handling Zip disks:
Never touch the magnetic medium inside the disk.
Do not use or store Zip disks in dirty or dusty areas.
Do not subject Zip disks to temperature extremes (e.g.,
direct sunlight in an enclosed vehicle). Recommended
temperature range: -22 to 51˚C (-7.6 to 123.8˚F).
Do not expose Zip disks to strong magnetic fields, such
as those generated by loudspeakers.
653
The identification label should be firmly affixed to the
disk. Should the label come loose while the disk is in the
drive, it may be difficult to remove the disk.
654
Store all disks in a safe place to avoid damaging them, and
to protect them from dust, dirt, and other hazards. By
using a dirty or dust-ridden disk, you risk damaging the
disk, as well as causing the disk drive to malfunction.
Handling CD-ROMs
801
Avoid touching or scratching the shiny underside
(encoded surface) of the disc. Damaged or dirty CD-ROM
discs may not be read properly. Keep your discs clean
using a commercially available CD cleaner.
Handling Hard Disks
Important Performance and Image
Data
811
Once a hard disk fails to function normally, all data that
has been stored on it could be destroyed.
All hard disks eventually wear out.
We recommend that
you consider the hard disk not as a permanent storage
site, but as a place to store data temporarily. We also
recommend that you back up important performance and
image data that cannot be recorded again onto the
external media that is supported by your device. For
instructions on how to make such backups, refer to the
owner’s manual for your device.
Note that Roland assumes no liability whatsoever,
including monetary compensation, for the loss of any
recorded content in the event of the malfunction of, or
physical damage to the hard disk, or for any direct or
incidental damages resulting from the loss of such data.
Precautions Regarding Setup and Use
812
Certain hard disk setup procedures and usage conditions
may result in the corruption of recorded data, malfunc-
tioning, or physical damage to the disk, so be sure to
observe the following precautions.
Do not subject the hard disk to vibration or shock,
especially while the unit is in operation.
Do not set up the unit in any location where it may be
affected by vibration from external sources, or on any
surface that is not stable and level.
If the device includes a cooling fan, ensure that the fan
and the side panel air vents remain unobstructed.
