IMPORTANT NOTES
Power Supply: Use of Batteries
301
•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.
302
•The AC adaptor will begin to generate heat after long hours of
consecutive use. This is normal, and is not a cause for concern.
303a
•The use of an AC adaptor is recommended as the unit’s power consumption is relatively high. Should you prefer to use batteries,
please use the nickel-metal hydride type.
304a
•When installing or replacing batteries, always turn off the power on this unit and disconnect any other devices you may have connected. This way, you can prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or
other devices.
307
•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.
Add
•If you’re using batteries, disconnect the AC adaptor from this unit.
Add
•If batteries are installed, disconnecting or reconnecting the power cord at the AC outlet or disconnecting the DC plug from the unit’s rear panel while the power is on will cause the power to turn off. You must turn off the power before you connect or disconnect the power cord or AC adaptor.
Placement
351
•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.
352a
•This device may interfere with radio and television reception. Do not
use this device in the vicinity of such receivers.
352b
•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.
354a
•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. Excessive heat can deform or discolor the
unit.
355b
•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.
358
•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.
360
•Depending on the material and temperature of the surface on which you place the unit, its rubber feet may discolor or mar the surface. You can place a piece of felt or cloth under the rubber feet to prevent this from happening. If you do so, please make sure that the unit will not slip or move accidentally.
6
Maintenance
401a
•For everyday cleaning wipe the unit with a soft, dry cloth or one that has been slightly dampened with water. To remove stubborn dirt, use a cloth impregnated with a mild, non-abrasive detergent.
Afterwards, be sure to wipe the unit thoroughly with a soft, dry cloth.
402
•Never use benzine, thinners, alcohol or solvents of any kind, to avoid the possibility of discoloration and/or deformation.
Repairs and Data
452
•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
551
•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.
552
•Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore the contents of data that was stored in the unit’s memory or on a USB memory once it has been lost. Roland Corporation assumes no liability concerning such
loss of data.
553
•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.
554
•Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
556
•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.
558a
•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).
559a
•When you need to transport the unit, package it in the box (including padding) that it came in, if possible. Otherwise, you will need to use
equivalent packaging materials.
561
•Use only the specified expression pedal (EV-5; sold separately). By connecting any other expression pedals, you risk causing
malfunction and/or damage to the unit.
562
•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.
566a
•The usable range of D Beam controller will become extremely small when used under strong direct sunlight. Please be aware of this
when using the D Beam controller outside.
566b
•The sensitivity of the D Beam controller will change depending on the amount of light in the vicinity of the unit. If it does not function as you expect, adjust the sensitivity as appropriate for the brightness of your location.

Depending on the circumstances of a particular setup, you may experience a discomforting sensation, or perceive that the surface feels granular 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 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.
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)

To the AC Adapter
Installing Batteries (Sold Separately)
If eight commercially available AA nickel-metal hydride batteries are installed, you’ll be able to play the JUNO-Di without connecting the AC adaptor.
Types of batteries that can be used
●Using nickel-metal hydride batteries will allow approximately five hours of continuous operation at room temperature. (However, the duration will be approximately four hours if USB memory is connected. The duration of continuous operation may differ depending on the conditions of use.)
Do not use alkaline batteries or zinc-carbon batteries.
Battery handling
●If you connect the AC adaptor and turn on the power when batteries are installed, the AC adaptor will be used preferentially.
●If you’re using batteries, disconnect the AC adaptor from this unit.
●If batteries are installed, disconnecting or reconnecting the power cord at the AC outlet or disconnecting the DC plug from the JUNO-Di’s rear panel while the power is on will cause the power to turn off. You must turn off the power before you connect or disconnect the power cord or AC adaptor.
●The BATTERY indicator is only an approximation.
●Avoid using new batteries together with used ones. In addition, avoid mixing different types of batteries.
●Whenever the unit is to remain unused for an extended period of time, save any important data on a USB memory, and then remove the batteries.
●Improper handling of a battery, rechargeable battery, or charger can cause leakage, overheating, fire, or bursting. Before use, you must read all of the safety instructions for your battery, rechargeable battery, and charger, and use these items safely in accordance with the safety instructions.
●You must use the combination of rechargeable battery and charger specified by the battery manufacturer.
1.While pressing the tabs of the battery compartment cover on the JUNO-Di’s bottom panel, remove the cover.
fig.BattCase-1.eps
•When opening the battery compartment cover, make sure that no foreign objects (flammable items, coins, pins, etc.) or liquids (water, juice, etc.) enter the compartment.
•When turning the unit upside-down, get a bunch of newspapers or magazines, and place them under the four corners or at both ends to prevent damage to the buttons and controls. Also, you should try to orient the unit so no buttons or controls get damaged.
•When turning the unit upside-down, handle with care to avoid dropping it, or allowing it to fall or tip over.
17
Getting Ready
2. Insert the batteries into the battery compartment, taking care to observe the correct polarity (+/- orientation).
fig.BattCase-2.eps
Carefully follow the installation instructions for batteries, and make sure you observe the correct polarity.
3. Securely close the battery compartment cover.
Removing Batteries
To remove the batteries, power off the JUNO-Di, open the battery compartment cover, and remove the batteries.
Connecting the External Equipment
Connecting Speakers or Headphones
Since JUNO-Di contains no amplifier or speakers, you’ll need to connect it to audio equipment such as a keyboard amplifier, monitor speaker system or home stereo, or use headphones to hear its sound.
In order to fully experience the JUNO-Di’s sound, we recommend using a stereo amp/speaker system. If you’re using a mono system, however, make your connections to the JUNO-Di’s OUTPUT L/MONO jack.
Audio cables are not included with the JUNO-Di. You’ll need to provide them.
921
To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power on all devices before making any connections.
fig.connect-output_e.eps
When to Replace the Batteries (BATTERY Indicator)
When the batteries run down, the BATTERY indicator located at the left of the display will light or blink.
• The BATTERY indicator will light when the batteries run low.
• If you continue using the JUNO-Di, the indicator will blink;
please recharge the batteries.
Stereo headphones
•If you continue use even though the indicator is blinking, the display will indicate “Battery Low!” and further operation will be impossible.
•The BATTERY indicator is only an approximation.
To reduce battery consumption, you can turn off the display’s backlight when it is not required. Refer to “Turning the Display Backlight On/Off” (p. 21).
You can also set the system setting “POWER SAVE MODE” to save power. For details, refer to “Making Settings that are Common to the Entire JUNO-Di (SYSTEM)” (p. 75).

Playing Ballads
This section explains how to select the piano tone for playing ballads. If use a pedal (sold separately), you can make reverberate in the same way as if you were using the damper pedal on a piano. Use the “reverb” effect to add some reverberation to your tone, as if you are playing in a concert hall.

Rotary Effect + Modulation Lever
When you play with the “Rotary” effect, you can tilt the Modulation lever forward to change the effect’s speed.
At the “ 
” mark in the sample score, press the Hold Pedal (see page 24) and tilt the lever forward with your left hand.
When you move the lever, the swelling speed of the tone changes. When you return the lever, the swell also returns.
Using the Pitch Bend/Modulation lever with your left hand, you can add effects to the tone while playing with your right hand.
When you’re playing a tone that uses “Rotary” or “VK Rotary” as the effect (MFX), the speed of Memo the rotary effect will be switched each time you tilt the modulation lever. For details on effect
settings, refer to p. 61.
Important
Function
Pitch Bend/Modulation Lever
When you play with another tone that does not have the rotary effect, the Pitch Bend/Modulation lever has the following effects:
While you play the keyboard, you can tilt the lever to the left to lower the pitch, and to the right to raise the pitch. This is called the “Pitch Bend Effect.” You can also tilt the lever forward to add a vibrato effect to the tone. This is called the “Modulation Effect.”
By tilting and holding the lever forward and to the left or right at the same time, you can attain both effects together.
