IMPORTANT NOTES

Placement

 

6

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. Excessive heat can deform or 

discolor the unit.

 

6

When moved from one location to another where the 

temperature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets 

(condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction 

may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition. 

Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for 

several hours, until the condensation has completely evaporated.

 

6

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

this unit for long periods of time. Such objects can discolor or 

otherwise harmfully affect the finish.

Maintenance

 

6

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.

 

6

Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to 

avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.

Additional Precautions

 

6

Use a reasonable amount of care when using the output jacks. 

Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.

 

6

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.

 

6

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.

 

6

This instrument is designed to minimize the extraneous sounds 

produced when it’s played. However, since sound vibrations 

can be transmitted through floors and walls to a greater degree 

than expected, take care not to allow these sounds to become a 

nuisance to neighbors, especially when using headphones.

 

6

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.

 

6

The rubber portion of the striking surface is treated with a 

preservative to maintain its performance. With the passage of 

time, this preservative may appear on the surface as a white stain, 

or reveal how the pads were struck during product testing. This 

does not affect the performance or functionality of the product, 

and you may continue using it with confidence.

 

6

Continuous playing may cause dis-coloration of the pad, but this 

will not affect the Pad’s function.
