This will help prevent ‘malfunctions and/or damage to speakers or other devices. ‘Using the unit near power amplifiers (or other ‘equipment containing large power transformers) may induce hum. To alleviate the problem, ‘change the orientation of this unit; or move it far- ther away from the source of interference. ‘+ This device may interfere with radio and televi- sion reception. Do not use this device inthe vicin- ity of such receivers. + Observe the following when using the unit's flop- py disk drive, For further details, refer to “Before Using Floppy Disks" (p. 38). Do not place the unit near devices that produce a strong magnetic field (eg. loudspeakers) + Install the unit on a solid, level surface. -Do not move the unit or subject it to vibration while the drive is operating. + 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 tem- perature extremes. Excessive heat can deform ot Aiscolor the unit. 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 mild, non-abrasive detergent. Afterwards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft dry cloth, + Never use benzene, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possiblity of discol- oration and /or deformation contents of data thal was stored on a floppy disk ‘once it has been Jost. Roland Corporation assumes ro liability concerning such loss of date ‘Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit's buttons, sliders, or other controls; and ‘when using its jacks and connectors. Rough han- dling can lead to malfunctions. ‘+ Never strike or apply strong pressure to the dis- play. ‘+ When connecting / disconnecting all cables, gasp the connector itsel(—never pall on the cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable's internal elements. ‘+ A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit during normal operation. 4 To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit's volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer fo use headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about those around you (especially when itis late at nigh). “+ When you need to transport the urit, package it in the box (including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use equiva Tent packaging materials, ‘+ Do not pull the music stand too far forward when setting/releasing its latches.BEFORE YOU BEGIN | Gently lft the music rest and fix itin place as shown below.

This is useful when giving piano lessons, o ‘when playing a piece for four hands. “The Headphones jacks are located beneath the key- board, at the far left. Connecting headphones will automatically mute the sound from the internal speakers. As a resull, you can play the piano with= out worrying about the neighbors. Hesdphone jack x2 To adjust the volume of the headphones, use the Volume slider on the piano, Please use stereo headphones, such as Roland RH= '30/80//120 stereo headphones. ‘The HP 550G provides for the use of a microphone. Using this, you can sing as you play the piano, enjoy Karaoke with the music data ete. For further details about Music Data, see pages 4and 39. ‘The Mic jack is located beneath the keyboard, at the far right. Connect a microphone to it, then you can hear the sound from it through the internal speak- ers. With headphones connected to the Headphones jack, the sound will be heard only through the head- phones, and no sound is heard from the speakers. Mic ack x1 To adjust the volume of the microphone, use the ‘Microphone Volume knob. To adjust the depth of the Echo effect, use the ‘Microphone Echo knob. * Be sure that the volume is not too loud for the neighbors You can use a microphane such as an optionally available Roland DR-15/25 microphone. When {you purchase a new microphone for the HP 350G, please consult the retailer where you have pur- chased the HP 550G. Notes on Using a Microphone * Before you connect the microphone to the piano, be sure to lower the volume. Ifthe volume is too high, noise may be heard from the speakers. ‘+ Howling (eedback) could be produced depend- ing on the location of microphones relative to speakers. This can be remedied by: 1. Changing the orientation of the microphone(s) 2. Relocating microphone(s) at a greater distance from speakers 3. Lowering volume levels.PANEL DESCRIPTIONS Front Panel 1.
