IMPORTANT NOTES
291a
In addition to the items listed under “USING THE UNIT SAFELY” on page p. 2, please read and observe
the following:
Power Supply
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.
Placement
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.
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.
Additional Precautions
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.
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.
558b
• To avoid disturbing your neighbors, try to keep
the unit’s volume at reasonable levels (especially
when it is late at night).
559b
• 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.
4
Handling CD-ROMs
801
• 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.

Installing the Driver
Operation of the UM-3EX
What is a driver?
A
“driver”
is software that transfers data between the UM-3EX and application software running on
your computer, when your computer and the UM-3EX are connected. The driver sends data from
your application to the UM-3EX, and from the UM-3EX to your application.
The installation procedure will differ depending on your system.
Please proceed to one of the following sections, depending on the system you use.
• Windows XP/2000 users ......................................................................................... p. 15
• Windows Me/98 users ............................................................................................ p. 20
Steps to be performed on the UM-3EX itself are marked by a symbol.

Here’s the procedure for installing a single UM-3EX.
If you’re using Mac OS X, you can simultaneously connect up to three UM-3EX units to a single
Macintosh via USB.
* Connection of multiple units is supported only in Mac OS X. For details, refer to
UM-3EX units”
* Depending on your system, the second or subsequent unit may not be usable depending on the limitations
imposed by the CPU processing speed, hard disk, memory, and the performance of your software.

What is a driver?
A
“driver”
is software that transfers data between the UM-3EX and application software running on
your Macintosh, when your Macintosh and the UM-3EX are connected. The driver sends data from
your application to the UM-3EX, and from the UM-3EX to your application.
The installation procedure will differ depending on your system.
Please proceed to one of the following sections, depending on the system you use.
