CARING FOR YOUR SD600
ELECTRONIC DRUM SET
LOCATION
• Keep the drum kit away from direct sunlight, high
temperature sources, and excessive humidity to prevent
deformation, discoloration, or more serious damage
POWER SUPPLY
• Turn the power switch OFF when the SD600 is not in use.
• The AC adapter should be unplugged from the AC outlet if the
SD600 is not to be used for an extended period of time.
• Avoid plugging the AC adapter into an AC outlet that is also
powering high-consumption appliances such as electric
heaters or televisions. Also avoid using multi-plug adapters,
since these can reduce sound quality, cause operation errors,
and result in possible damage.
• To avoid damaging the unit, turn the SD600 and all related
devices OFF prior to connecting or disconnecting cables.
HANDLING AND TRANSPORT
• Never apply excessive force to controls, connectors, and
other parts.
• Unplug cables by gripping the plug rmly. Do not pull on
the cable.
• Disconnect all cables before moving the module.
• Physical shocks caused by dropping, bumping, or placing
heavy objects on the module can result in scratches and more
serious damage.
CLEANING
• Clean the module 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.
• To avoid discoloration, do not place vinyl objects on top
of module.
ELECTRICAL INTERFERENCE
• The module contains digital circuitry and may cause
interference if placed too close to radio or television receivers.
If this occurs, move the SD600 further away from the affected
equipment.
SERVICE AND MODIFICATION
• There are no user serviceable parts in the drum module.
• Do not attempt to open the sound module or make any
change in the circuits or parts of the unit. This would void
