Power Supply
• Do not share the power supply with other
electronics that can produce cable statics, for
example, electric motors.
• It is normal for direct current (DC) to produce
heat with extended usage, and there is no
need to be worried.
• Before connecting the machine to other
equipments, always turn off the power to
prevent damage.
Placement/Location
• Operating the machine near a post-
amplier or machines that use high-power
converters, buzzing may result. To prevent this
problem, please change the machine’s facing
direction, or place the machine away from the
interrupting sources.
• This machine may interfere with the radios
and televisions. Please do not operate the
machines near them.
• Do not place the machine under sun, or near
any heat source, as high temperature may
cause the machine to deform or discolor.
• To prevent permanent damage, please do
not expose the machine to moist or in humid
environments.
Maintenance
• For normal cleaning, please use soft cloth
with little or no moist for wiping. For tougher
spots, use neutral-pH and wear-free cleaner
then use dry soft cloth to wipe clean.
• Never use volatile oil, diluting solutions,
alcohol, or any other kinds of solvents to
prevent the machine from deforming or
discoloring.
Additional Precautions
• During operation, please handle with care to
prevent any damage.
• Do not hit or press against the display screen.
• Always grab the heads of cables during
insertion/removal to prevent damage to the
cables or the machine.
• To prevent disturbing your neighbors, please
operate the machine at an acceptable volume,
or use a headphone, especially at nights.
• Although the machine is designed to
minimize unwanted noise during operation, the
percussive sound may still pass through the
oor or walls, resulting in unexpected noise.
Please be careful not to let such sound disturb
your neighbors, especially at nights.
• When transporting the machine, please use
the original or similar stufng and box.
• Please use ofcal cables for connection.
When using cables from other companies,
please note the following:
Some cables may consist of resistors, which
may be incompatible and result in extremely
low volume. For information about the
specications of cables, please consult with
the manufacturers.
• Please do not hit the pads with excessive
force to prevent the risk of hurting your ngers.
