IMPORTANT NOTES
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 or a motor (such as a 
refrigerator, washing machine, microwave oven, or 
air conditioner). 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.
•  To prevent malfunction and equipment failure, 
always make sure to turn off the power on all your 
equipment before you make any connections.
•  Although the LCD and LEDs are switched off when 
the unit is turned 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 unit’s 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.
•  With the factory settings, the HP507 will 
automatically be switched off 30 minutes after you 
stop playing or operating the unit. If you don’t want 
the unit to turn off automatically, change the “Auto 
Off” setting to “Off” as described on “Making the 
Power Automatically Turn Off After a Time (Auto 
Off)” (p. 44).
NOTE
The settings you were editing will be lost when the 
unit is turned off. If you want to keep your settings, 
you must save your settings before turning the unit 
off.
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 this 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.
•  Do not put anything that contains water on this unit. 
Also, avoid the use of insecticides, perfumes, alcohol, 
nail polish, spray cans, etc., near the unit. Swiftly 
wipe away any liquid that spills on the unit using a 
dry, soft cloth.
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 of polished-finish pianos
(Only for HP507-PE)
•  Since your piano has a polished finish that is as 
delicate as that found on finely crafted wooden 
furniture, it needs careful, periodic care. A few 
important suggestions concerning the proper care 
of the unit follow. For dusting, using a soft, clean 
cloth and/or piano-use feather duster. Be sure to 
wipe gently. Even the tiniest grains of sand or grit 
can leave scratches on the surface if too much force 
is applied while wiping. Do not use any cleaners or 
detergents, since they might deteriorate the surface 
of the cabinet, and produce cracks.
If the cabinet’s surface loses its luster, wipe it 
thoroughly with a soft cloth dampened with a little 
of the polishing liquid. 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.
•  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 
polished-finish 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.
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 
USB flash drives, 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 flash drive.
•  Unfortunately, it may be impossible to restore 
the contents of data that was stored in the unit’s 
memory, USB flash drives 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.
•  Never strike or apply strong pressure to the display.
•  When 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.
•  A small amount of heat will radiate from the unit 
during normal operation.
•  To avoid disturbing others nearby, 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.
•  The sound of keys being struck and vibrations 
produced by playing an instrument can be 
transmitted through a floor or wall to an unexpected 
extent. Please take care not to cause annoyance to 
others nearby.
•  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.
•  Do not apply undue force to the music stand while 
it is in use.
