If so, change the angle or the position of the unit. • Avoid using the unit in excessive heat or humidity or where it may be affected by direct sunlight or dust. Power • The appropriate power supply for this unit is shown on its name plate. Please make sure that the line voltage in your country meets the requirement. • It is normal for this unit to become hot while being operated. • Do not drop or place anything heavy on the power cord or connection cords. Caution • Do not dismantle or touch inside the unit. It may cause you an electric shock and the unit breakdown. • Do not let any solid or liquid substance into the unit. • If the unit does not function properly,, immediately switch it off, disconnect the power plug from the socket, and call your local Roland service center. Other Notes ® For about five seconds after the unit is switched on, muting circuits function, therefore no sound (effect or direct) is produced. • If this unit is turned on immediately after being turned off, it may not function properly. If this happens, turn off the unit once, then turn it on after waiting for a few seconds. • The RE-3 features a memory back-up system that retains the data even when switched off. The battery that supports the back-up circuit should be replaced every five years. Call Roland for battery replacement. (The first replacement may be required before five years, depending on how much time had passed before you purchased the unit.) ■ CONNECTIONS MIC1 MIC MIC2 Rolarte I SB kCE ECHO оом.. .с.
