Your EDP450 should give you years of playing pleasure if
you follow the advice below:
Location
Do not expose the unit to the following conditions to avoid
deformation, discoloration, or more serious damage.
• Direct sunlight
• High temperature (near a heat source, or in a
car during the day time)
• Excessive humidity
• Excessive dust
• Strong vibration
Power Supply
• Turn the power switch OFF when the
instrument is not in use.
• If an AC adaptor is used, it should be
unplugged from the AC outlet if the instrument is not to
be used for an extended period of time.
• Unplug the AC adaptor during electric storms.
• Avoid plugging the AC adaptor into the same AC outlet as
an appliance with high power consumption, such as
electric heaters or ovens. Also avoid using multi-plug
adaptors since these can result in reduced sound
quality, operation errors, and possibly damage.
Turn Power OFF When Making Connections.
• To avoid damage to the instrument and other
devices to which it is connected, turn off the
power switches of all related devices prior to
connecting or disconnecting cables.
Handling and Transport
• Never apply excessive force to the controls,
connectors or other parts of the instrument.
• Always unplug cables by gripping the plug
firmly, but not pulling on the cable.
• Disconnect all cables before moving the instrument.
• Physical shocks caused by dropping, bumping,
or placing heavy objects on the instrument
can result in scratches and more serious damage.
Cleaning
• Clean the cabinet and panel with a dry soft cloth.
•A slightly damp cloth may be used to remove
stubborn grime and dirt.
• Never use cleaners such as alcohol or thinner.
• Avoid placing vinyl objects on top of the unit (vinyl can
stick to and discolor the surface).
Electrical Interference
• This instrument contains digital circuitry and may cause
interference if placed too close to radio or television
