Roland R-88 Manual Do Utilizador

Setup

The R-88 can operate using an AC adaptor, batteries, or an external 

power device.

*  We recommend that you keep batteries installed in the unit 

even though you’ll be powering it with the AC adaptor. That 

way, you’ll be able to continue a performance even if the cord of 

the AC adaptor gets accidently disconnected from the unit.

*  If operating this unit on batteries, please use alkaline batteries, 

rechargeable Ni-MH batteries.

Although it is possible to replace the batteries without removing 

the battery case, battery replacement will be easier if you remove 

the battery case.

If used improperly, batteries may explode or leak and cause 

damage or injury. In the interest of safety, please read and 

observe the following precautions.

•   Carefully follow the installation instructions for batteries, and 

make sure you observe the correct polarity.

•   Avoid using new batteries together with used ones. In 

addition, avoid mixing different types of batteries.

•   Remove the batteries whenever the unit is to remain unused 

for an extended period of time.

•   Never keep batteries together with metallic objects such as 

ballpoint pens, necklaces, hairpins, etc.

•   Incorrect handling of batteries, rechargeable batteries, or 

a battery charger can cause leakage, overheating, fire, or 

explosion. Before use, you must read and strictly observe 

all of the precautions that accompany the batteries, 

rechargeable batteries, or battery charger.

•   When using rechargeable batteries and a charger, use only 

the combination of rechargeable batteries and charger 

specified by the battery manufacturer.

•   AA alkaline batteries (LR6)
•   AA rechargeable Ni-MH batteries (HR6)

Choose <MENU>Ú<SYSTEM SETUP>Ú<BATTERY>(p. 66), and 

specify the battery that you’re using.

*   The R-88 cannot recharge rechargeable Ni-MH batteries. 

You’ll need to use a battery charger designed for 

rechargeable Ni-MH batteries.

The R-88 has a power conservation function, which prevents 

unnecessary battery consumption. If you leave the unit for a 

certain period of time without performing any operation, the 

display will dim or the unit’s power will turn off, depending on 

the power conservation setting.

*   To prevent the power from turning off automatically, Choose 

[MENU]Ú<SYSTEM SETUP> and turn the AUTO OFF setting 

OFF. For details, refer to ”Turning the Power On/Off” (p. 25).

When the remaining battery power runs low, a battery low 

icon

appears in the lower right of the display. When 

this appears, install fresh batteries as soon as possible. If 

you continue to use the unit in this state, the display will 

indicate“Battery Low,” and finally the R-88 will stop functioning 

entirely.
