damp or wet conditions, or place containers on it containing
liquids which might spill into any openings.
• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
Fire warning

volume levels to minimum. Also, be sure to set the volumes of
all components at their minimum levels and gradually raise
the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the
desired listening level.

use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-
impregnated wiping cloths.

since this might discolor the panel or keyboard.
