• Use only the stand/rack specified for the instrument. When attaching 

the stand or rack, use the provided screws only. Failure to do so 
could cause damage to the internal components or result in the 
instrument falling over.

• Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, 

turn off the power for all components. Before turning the power on 
or off for all components, set all volume levels to minimum.

• Be sure to set the volumes of all components at their minimum 

levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the 
instrument to set the desired listening level.

• Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument.

• Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps 

on the panel. This could cause physical injury to you or others, 
damage to the instrument or other property, or operational failure.

• Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the 

instrument, and do not use excessive force on the buttons, switches 
or connectors.

• Do not use the instrument/device or headphones for a long period of 

time at a high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause 
permanent hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or 
ringing in the ears, consult a physician.

Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use. 

Even when the power switch is in standby status, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the 
instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.
