damage your back, result in other injury, or cause damage to the 
instrument itself.
• Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to 
prevent damage to the cables or injury to anyone who might trip 
over them. 
• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are 
using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, 
immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug from 
the outlet. Even when the power switch is turned off, electricity is 
still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When you are not 
using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power

 AT T E N T I O N
Observez toujours les précautions élémentaires reprises ci-dessous pour éviter tout risque de blessures corporelles, 
pour vous-même ou votre entourage, ainsi que la détérioration de l'instrument ou de tout autre bien. La liste de ces 
précautions n'est pas exhaustive :
• N'utilisez pas de connecteur multiple pour brancher l'instrument sur 
une prise secteur. Cela risque d'affecter la qualité du son, voire de 
provoquer la surchauffe de la prise.
• Veillez à toujours saisir la fiche, et non le cordon, pour débrancher 
l'instrument de la prise d'alimentation. Si vous tirez sur le cordon, 
vous risquez de l'endommager.
• Débranchez la fiche électrique de la prise secteur lorsque vous 
n'utilisez pas l'instrument pendant un certain temps ou en cas 
d'orage.
• Ne placez pas l'instrument dans une position instable afin d'éviter 
qu'il ne tombe accidentellement.
• En cas de transport ou de déplacement de l'instrument, faites 
toujours appel à deux personnes au moins. En essayant de soulever 
l'instrument tout seul, vous risqueriez de vous faire mal au dos ou 
de vous blesser ou encore d'endommager l'instrument lui-même.
• Avant de déplacer l'instrument, débranchez-en tous les câbles afin 
d'éviter de les endommager ou de blesser quiconque risquerait de 
trébucher dessus.
• Lors de la configuration de l'instrument, assurez-vous que la prise 
secteur que vous utilisez est facilement accessible. En cas de 
problème ou de dysfonctionnement, coupez immédiatement 
l'alimentation et retirez la fiche de la prise. Même lorsque 
l'interrupteur d'alimentation est en position d'arrêt, du courant 
électrique de faible intensité continue de circuler dans l'instrument. 
Si vous n'utilisez pas l'instrument pendant une période prolongée, 
veillez à débrancher le cordon d'alimentation de la prise murale.• Avant de raccorder l'instrument à d'autres appareils électroniques, 
mettez ces derniers hors tension. Avant de mettre ces appareils sous 
ou hors tension, réglez tous les niveaux de volume sur le son 
minimal.
• Veillez également à régler tous les appareils sur le volume minimal 
et à augmenter progressivement les commandes de volume tout en 
jouant de l'instrument pour obtenir le niveau sonore souhaité.
• N'insérez pas et ne laissez pas tomber d'objets en papier, en métal 
ou autres dans les fentes du panneau ou du clavier. Vous pourriez 
vous blesser ou provoquer des blessures à votre entourage, 
endommager l'instrument ou un autre bien ou causer des 
dysfonctionnements au niveau de l'instrument.
• Ne vous appuyez pas sur l'instrument et ne déposez pas d'objets 
lourds dessus. Ne manipulez pas trop brutalement les touches, les 
sélecteurs et les connecteurs.
• N'utilisez pas l'instrument ou le casque de manière prolongée 
à des niveaux sonores trop élevés ou inconfortables qui risqueraient 
d'entraîner des troubles définitifs de l'audition. Si vous constatez 
une baisse d'acuité auditive ou que vous entendez des sifflements, 
consultez un médecin.
Mettez toujours l'instrument hors tension lorsque vous ne l'utilisez pas. 
Même lorsque l'interrupteur [STANDBY/ON] (Veille/Marche) est en position de veille et que le rétroéclairage de l'écran est éteint, une faible quantité 
d'électricité circule toujours dans l'instrument.
Lorsque vous n'utilisez pas l'instrument pendant une période prolongée, veillez à débrancher le cordon d'alimentation de la prise murale.
