•Use only the attached power-supply cord. Also, the supplied power cord must not be used with any other device.
..................................................................................................................................
•Do not excessively twist or bend the power cord, nor place heavy objects on it. Doing so can damage the cord, producing severed elements and short circuits. Damaged cords are fire and shock hazards!
..................................................................................................................................
•This unit, either alone or in combination with an amplifier and headphones or speakers, may be capable of producing sound levels that could cause permanent hearing loss. Do not operate for a long period of time at a high volume level, or at a level that is uncomfortable. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you should immediately stop using the unit, and consult an audiologist.
..................................................................................................................................
8
USING THE UNIT SAFELY

of the unit.
..................................................................................................................................
•Protect the unit from strong impact. (Do not drop it!)
..................................................................................................................................
•Do not force the unit’s power-supply cord to share an outlet with an unreasonable number of other devices. Be especially careful when using extension cords— the total power used by all devices you have connected to the extension cord’s outlet must never exceed the power rating (watts/amperes) for the extension cord. Excessive loads can cause the insulation on the cord to heat up and eventually melt through.
..................................................................................................................................
•Before using the unit in a foreign country, consult with your retailer, the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the “Information” page.
..................................................................................................................................

Power Supply
•Do not connect this unit to same electrical outlet that is being used by an electrical appliance that is controlled by an inverter (such as a refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or air conditioner), or that contains a motor. Depending on the way in which the electrical appliance is used, power supply noise may cause this unit to malfunction or may produce audible noise. If it is not practical to use a separate electrical outlet, connect a power supply noise filter between this unit and the electrical outlet.
•Before connecting this unit to other devices, turn off the power to all units. This will help prevent malfunctions and/or damage to speakers or other devices.
•Although the LCD and LEDs are switched off when the POWER switch is switched off, this does not mean that the unit has been completely disconnected from the source of power. If you need to turn off the power completely, first turn off the POWER switch, then unplug the power cord from the power outlet. For this reason, the outlet into which you choose to connect the power cord’s plug should be one that is within easy reach and readily accessible.
HP302
•The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long hours of consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a cause for concern.
Placement
•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 farther away from the source of interference.
•This device may interfere with radio and television reception. Do not use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.
•Noise may be produced if wireless communications devices, such as cell phones, are operated in the vicinity of this unit. Such noise could occur when receiving or initiating a call, or while conversing. Should you experience such problems, you should relocate such wireless devices so they are at a greater distance from this unit, or switch them off.
•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 temperature extremes. Also, do not allow lighting devices that normally are used while their light source is very close to the unit (such as a piano light), or powerful spotlights to shine upon the same area of the unit for extended periods of time. Excessive heat can deform or discolor the unit.
•When moved from one location to another where the temperature and/or humidity is very different, water droplets (condensation) may form inside the unit. Damage or malfunction may result if you attempt to use the unit in this condition. Therefore, before using the unit, you must allow it to stand for several hours, until the condensation has completely evaporated.
•Do not allow rubber, vinyl, or similar materials to remain on the unit for long periods of time. Such objects can discolor or otherwise harmfully affect the finish.
•Do not allow objects to remain on top of the keyboard. This can be the cause of malfunction, such as keys ceasing to produce sound.
•Do not paste stickers, decals, or the like to this instrument. Peeling such matter off the instrument may damage the exterior finish.
Maintenance
•To clean the unit, use a dry, soft cloth; or one that is slightly dampened. Try to wipe the entire surface using an equal amount of strength, moving the cloth along with the grain of the wood. Rubbing too hard in the same area can damage the finish.
•Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.
•The pedals of this unit are made of brass.
Brass eventually darkens as the result of the natural oxidization process. If the brass becomes tarnished, polish it using commercially available metal polisher.
•Since wood will expand and contract depending on how it is used and the environment in which it is located, products made of wood may experience a gradual loosening of the screws over time.
To ensure that your piano remains in safe, optimal condition, you should regularly check the tightness of the screws in the locations shown in the illustration. If you find that any screws are loose, use a screwdriver to tighten them.
Maintenance (Polished-finish pianos)
•Since your piano has a polished finish that is as delicate as that found on finely crafted wooden furniture, it needs careful, periodic care.
•For regular dusting, use a soft, clean cloth and/or a piano-use feather duster. Be sure to wipe gently. Even tiny granules of grit can damage the surface of the unit if you use too much pressure when wiping.
•If the cabinet gets dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth that has been soaked with water, then squeezed dry. Afterwards, wipe it again with a soft dry cloth. Do not use any cleaners or detergents, since they might deteriorate the surface of the cabinet, and produce cracks. Do not use dusting cloths that contain chemicals.
•If the cabinet’s surface loses its luster, wipe it thoroughly with a soft cloth dampened with a little of the piano polishing liquid.
•About piano polishing liquid
•Use polishing liquid as directed by the instructions for the product.
•Use only polishing liquid that is intended for use on polishedfinish pianos. Using any other polishing liquid may cause scratches, deformation, or discoloration. To purchase polishing liquid, contact your nearby musical instrument dealer.
•Use the polishing liquid only on the polished surfaces of the cabinet. Always wipe the surface with the grain using straight, even strokes. Do not repeatedly wipe the same places using too much pressure, since that might result in the loss of luster.
•Be sure to keep the polishing liquid out of the reach of small children. If the polishing liquid is accidentally swallowed, first get them to vomit, then take them to a doctor.

IMPORTANT NOTES
Repairs and Data
•Please be aware that all data contained in the unit’s memory may be lost when the unit is sent for repairs. Important data should always be backed up on a USB memory, or written down on paper (when possible). During repairs, due care is taken to avoid the loss of data. However, in certain cases (such as when circuitry related to memory itself is out of order), we regret that it may not be possible to restore the data, and Roland assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.
Additional Precautions
•Please be aware that the contents of memory can be irretrievably lost as a result of a malfunction, or the improper operation of the unit. To protect yourself against the risk of loosing important data, we recommend that you periodically save a backup copy of important data you have stored in the unit’s memory on a USB memory.
•Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents of data that was stored on an Internal Memory, a USB Memory or an external memory once it has been lost. Roland Corporation assumes no liability concerning such loss of data.
•Use a reasonable amount of care when using the unit’s buttons, sliders, or other controls; and when using its jacks and connectors. Rough handling can lead to malfunctions.
•When connecting / disconnecting all cables, grasp the connector itself—never pull on the cable. This way you will avoid causing shorts, or damage to the cable’s internal elements.
•To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep the unit’s volume at reasonable levels. You may prefer to use headphones, so you do not need to be concerned about those around you (especially when it is late at night).
•When you need to transport the unit, pack it in shock-absorbent material. Transporting the unit without doing so can cause it to become scratched or damaged, and could lead to malfunction.
•Do not apply undue force to the music stand while it is in use.
•Some connection cables contain resistors. Do not use cables that incorporate resistors for connecting to this unit. The use of such cables can cause the sound level to be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For information on cable specifications, contact the manufacturer of the cable.
•Before opening or closing the keyboard lid, always make sure that no pets or other small animals are located on top of the instrument (in particular, they should be kept away from the keyboard and its lid). Otherwise, due to the structural design of this instrument, small pets or other animals could end up getting trapped inside it. If such a situation is encountered, you must immediately switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the outlet. You should then consult with the retailer from whom the instrument was purchased, or contact the nearest Roland Service Center.
•A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit during normal operation.
Handling the Floppy Disk Drive
(Using Optional Floppy Disk Drive)
•Never attempt to remove a floppy disk from the drive while the drive is operating (the indicator is lit); damage could result to both the disk and the drive.
Handling Floppy Disks
•Floppy disks contain a plastic disk with a thin coating of magnetic storage medium. Microscopic precision is required to enable storage of large amounts of data on such a small surface area. To preserve their integrity, please observe the following when handling floppy disks:
•Never touch the magnetic medium inside the disk.
•Do not use or store floppy disks in dirty or dusty areas.
•Do not subject floppy disks to temperature extremes (e.g., direct sunlight in an enclosed vehicle). Recommended temperature range: 10 to 50 degrees C (50 to 122 degrees F).
•Do not expose floppy disks to strong magnetic fields, such as those generated by loudspeakers.
•Floppy disks have a “write protect” tab which can protect the disk from accidental erasure. It is recommended that the tab be kept in the PROTECT position, and moved to the WRITE position only when you wish to write new data onto the disk.
Rear side of the disk
Write
(can write new data onto disk)
Write Protect Tab |
Protect |
|
(prevents writing to disk) |
•The identification label should be firmly affixed to the disk. Should the label come loose while the disk is in the drive, it may be difficult to remove the disk.
•Store all disks in a safe place to avoid damaging them, and to protect them from dust, dirt, and other hazards. By using a dirty or dustridden disk, you risk damaging the disk, as well as causing the disk drive to malfunction.
Handling Using USB memory
(Using Optional USB memory)
•Do not connect or disconnect USB memory while it is being read from, or written to (i.e., while the USB memory access indicator will blink).
•Carefully insert the USB memory all the way in—until it is firmly in place.
•Never touch the External Memory connector. Also, avoid getting the terminals dirty.
•USB memories are constructed using precision components; handle the USB memories carefully, paying particular note to the following.
•To prevent damage to the USB memories from static electricity, be sure to discharge any static electricity from your own body before handling the USB memories.
•Do not touch or allow metal to come into contact with the contact portion of the USB memories.
•Do not bend, drop, or subject USB memories to strong shock or vibration.
•Do not keep USB memories in direct sunlight, in closed vehicles, or other such locations.
•Do not allow USB memories to become wet.
•Do not disassemble or modify the USB memories.
Handling CD-ROMs
(Using Optional CD-ROMs)
•Avoid touching or scratching the shiny underside (encoded surface) of the disc. Damaged or dirty CD-ROM discs may not be read properly. Keep your discs clean using a commercially available CD cleaner.

3. Plug the Power cord into a power outlet.
Be sure to use only the AC adaptor supplied with the unit. Also, make sure the line voltage at the installation matches the input voltage specified on the AC adaptor’s body. Other AC adaptors may use a different polarity, or be designed for a different voltage, so their use could result in damage, malfunction, or electric shock
*Depending on the circumstances of a particular setup, you may experience a discomforting sensation, or perceive that the surface feels gritty to the touch when you touch this device, microphones connected to it, or the metal portions of other objects, such as guitars. This is due to an infinitesimal electrical charge, which is absolutely harmless. However, if you are concerned about this, connect the ground terminal (see figure) with an external ground. When the unit is grounded, a slight hum may occur, depending on the particulars of your installation. If you are unsure of the connection method, contact the nearest Roland Service Center, or an authorized Roland distributor, as listed on the “Information” page.
Unsuitable places for connection
•Water pipes (may result in shock or electrocution)
•Gas pipes (may result in fire or explosion)
•Telephone-line ground or lightning rod (may be dangerous in the event of lightning)

If you need to turn off the power completely, first turn off the [POWER] switch, then unplug the power cord from the power outlet. Refer to “Connecting the Power Cord (HP305)” (p. 18) or “Connecting the AC Adaptor (HP302)” (p. 18).
Here’s how to adjust the volume of your keyboard playing or the playback volume of an internal song or USB memory song.
If headphones are connected, use the [Volume] slider to adjust the headphone volume.
Min Max
1.Turn the [Volume] slider to adjust the overall volume.
Adjust the volume while you play the keyboard to produce sound.
Turning the knob toward the right will increase the volume, and turning it toward the left will decrease the volume.
21
Before You Play
The pedals perform the following operations. You’ll use them mainly when playing piano.
Soft Pedal
Sostenuto Pedal
Damper Pedal
Damper Pedal (right pedal)
Use this pedal to sustain the sound.
While this pedal is held down, notes will be sustained for an extended time even if you release your fingers from the keyboard.
The length of sustain will change subtly depending on how deeply you press the pedal.
On an acoustic piano, holding down the damper pedal will cause the strings for notes other than the ones you actually play to vibrate in sympathy with what you’ve played, producing a rich resonance. The HP305/HP302 simulates this
sympathetic vibration (damper resonance).
You can modify the sound of the sympathetic vibration (p. 59).
Sostenuto Pedal (center pedal)
The notes you are pressing when this pedal is depressed will be sustained.
Soft Pedal (left pedal)
This pedal is used to make the sound softer.
Playing with the soft pedal depressed produces a sound that is not as strong as when otherwise played with the equivalent strength. This is the same function as the left pedal of an acoustic piano.
The softness of the tone can be varied subtly by the depth to which you press the pedal.
You can switch the function of the sostenuto pedal and the soft pedal (p. 59).
If you disconnect the pedal cord from the HP305/HP302 while the power is turned on, the pedal effect will remain applied. You must connect or disconnect the pedal cord while the HP305/HP302’s power is switched off.
If you feel that the pedal is unstable (for example if you’ve moved the HP305/HP302 to a different location), you can adjust the adjuster located on the bottom of the pedals as follows.
Adjuster
Turn the adjuster to lower it until the adjuster is in firm contact with the floor. The pedal may be damaged if there is a gap between the adjuster and the floor. In particular, when you’ve placed the HP305/HP302 on carpet, you must turn the adjuster until it is pressing firmly against the floor.
22
Before You Play
You can use headphones to enjoy the HP305/HP302 without disturbing those around you, such as at night.
The HP305/HP302 has two headphone jacks, two people can also use headphones simultaneously.
HP305 |
HP302 |
1.Plug the headphones into the Phone jack.
If headphones are connected, no sound will be output from the HP305/HP302’s speakers.
2.Use the HP305/HP302’s [Volume] slider to adjust the headphone volume (p. 21).
23
Before You Play
Whenever you are not using the headphones, you can hang them on the headphone hook of the HP305/HP302.

2.Turn the headphone hook wing nut to secure the headphone hook.
Do not hang anything other than headphones on the headphone hook. Doing so may damage the instrument or the hook.
Cautions when Using Headphones
•To prevent damage to the cord’s internal conductors, avoid rough handling. When using headphones, mainly try to handle either the plug or the headset.
•Your headphones may be damaged if the volume of a device is already turned up when you plug them in. Minimize the volume before you plug in the headphones.
•Excessive input will not only damage your hearing, but may also strain the headphones. Please enjoy music at an appropriate volume.
•Use headphones that have a stereo 1/4” phone plug.

In addition to piano sounds, the HP305/HP302 lets you enjoy performing with many other sounds (over 300 types). These sounds are called “Tones.” The Tones are divided into four groups, each of which is assigned to a different Tone button.
Let’s start by performing with a piano tone.
When you turn on the power, the “Grand Piano1” Tone is selected.

You can sound the metronome while you perform.
The HP305/HP302 contains a versatile metronome feature. You can change the metronome’s volume and time signature, or change the way in which it divides the beats.
While the song plays, the metronome will sound at the tempo and time signature of the song.

A series of sounds rhythmically played to indicate the tempo before a song starts is called a “count-in.”
If you sound a count-in, it will be easier for you to synchronize your own performance to the tempo of the playback.

You can add a pleasant reverberation to the sounds you play from the keyboard, producing the impression that you are performing in a concert hall. This effect is called “Reverb.”

1.Press the [Reverb] button.
The [Reverb] button will light.
If you press the [Reverb] button once again, the button will go out and the reverb effect will be eliminated.

The display will indicate the depth of the reverb effect values.
Reverb depth range |
1 –10 |
|
|
Higher values apply deeper reverb.
The adjusted setting will return to its previous value when you turn off the power. If you wish, you can have this setting be retained even while the power is turned off (p. 21).
*You can’t specify the depth of the reverb effect independently for each sound. Reverb is applied at the same depth for each sound.
*The depth of the reverb effect for the song that’s playing will not change.
*The reverb effect is not applied if Twin Piano mode (p. 33) is set to Individual.
What are Effects?
In addition to reverb, the HP305/HP302 provides a wide variety of other “effects” that can modify the sound in various ways. An appropriate effect is selected for each different tone.
* Some tones do not have an effect.
