This symbol indicates explanations about

dangerous matters. If users ignore this

symbol and handle the device incorrectly,

bodily injury and damage to the equip-

ment could result.

Please observe the following safety tips and precau-

tions to ensure hazard-free use of the G1u.

Power requirements

Since power consumption of this unit is fairly high,

we recommend the use of an AC adapter whenever

possible. When powering the unit from batteries, use

only alkaline types.

[AC adapter operation]

• Be sure to us e on l y an A C ad a p t er ZO OM

AD-0006 or AD-16. The use of an adapter other

than the specified type may damage the unit and

pose a safety hazard.

• Connect theAC adapter only to anAC outlet that

supplies the rated voltage required by the adapter.

• When disconnecting theAC adapter from theAC

outlet, always grasp the adapter itself and do not

pull at the cable.

• Duringlightningorwhennotusingtheunitforan

extended period, disconnect the AC adapter from

the AC outlet.

[Battery operation]

• Use four conventional IEC R6 (sizeAA) batteries

(alkaline).

• TheG1ucannotbeusedforrecharging.

• Paycloseattentiontothelabellingofthebatteryto

make sure you choose the correct type.

• When not using the unit for anextended period,

remove the batteries from the unit.

• If battery leakage has occurred, wipe the battery

compartment and the battery terminals carefully to

remove all remnants of battery fluid.

• While using the unit, the battery compartment

cover should be closed.

Environment

To prevent the risk of fire, electric shock or malfunc-

tion, avoid using your G1u in environments where it

will be exposed to:

• Extremetemperatures

• Heatsourcessuchasradiatorsorstoves

• Highhumidityormoisture

• Excessivedustorsand

• Excessivevibrationorshock

Handling

• Never place objects filled with liquids, such as

vases, on the G1u since this can cause electric

shock.

• Donotplacenakedflamesources,such as lighted

candles, on the G1u since this can cause fire.

• The G1u is a precision instrument. Do not exert

undue pressure on the keys and other controls. Also

takecarenottodroptheunit,anddonotsubjectit

to shock or excessive pressure.

• Take care that no foreign objects (coins or pins

etc.)orliquidscanentertheunit.

Connecting cables and input and output jacks

You should always turn off the power to the G1u and

all other equipment before connecting or disconnect-

ing any cables. Also make sure to disconnect all con-

nection cables and the power cord before moving the

G1u.

Alterations

NeveropenthecaseoftheG1uorattempttomodify

the product in any way since this can result in dam-

age to the unit.

Volume

Do not use the G1u at a loud volume for a long time

since this can cause hearing impairment.

Usage Precautions

Electrical interference

For safety considerations, the G1u has been designed to pro-

vide maximum protection against the emission of electro-

magnetic radiation from inside the device, and protection

fromexternalinterference.However,equipmentthatisvery

susceptible to interference or that emits powerful electro-

magnetic waves should not be placed near the G1u, as the

possibility of interference cannot be ruled out entirely.

With any type of digital control device, the G1u included,

electromagnetic interference can cause malfunctioning and

can corrupt or destroy data. Care should be taken to mini-

mize the risk of damage.

Cleaning

Useasoft,dryclothtocleantheG1u.Ifnecessary,slightly

moisten the cloth. Do not use abrasive cleanser, wax, or sol-

vents(suchaspaintthinnerorcleaningalcohol),sincethese

may dull the finish or damage the surface.

Please keep this manual in a convenient place for

future reference.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS / Usage Precautions

Terms Used in This Manual

This section explains some important terms that are used throughout the G1u manual.

• Effectmodule

As shown in the illustration above, a patch in the

G1u can be thought of as a combination of up to

eightsingleeffects.Eachsucheffectisreferredto

as an effect module.

• Effecttype

Some effect modules have several different effects

which are referred to as effect types. For example,

the MODULATION module is comprised of

chorus, flanger, pitch shifter, and other effect

types.Onlyoneofthesecanbeselectedatatime.

• Effectparameter

All effect modules have various parameters that

canbeadjusted.Thesearecalledeffectparameters

or simply parameters. When thinking of an effect

module as a compact effect, the parameters change

the tone and effect intensity similar to the knobs

on the device.

• Patch

In the G1u, effect module combinations are stored

and called up in units referred to as patches. A patch

is comprised of information about the on/off status

and effect parameter settings used in each module.

•Bank

A group of ten patches is called a bank.

The memory of the G1u is comprised of a total of

20banks,labeledwithlettersAtoJ(user-editable

banks) and numbers 0 to 9 (read-only preset

banks),asshownintheillustrationattopright.

• Mode

The internal status of the G1u is referred to as the

operation mode. The function of keys and controls

differs,dependingontherespectivemode.Modes

of the G1u include play mode for selecting and

playing patches, rhythm mode for playing a

rhythm pattern, edit mode for modifying effects,

and store mode for saving patches.

When the batteries are

getting low, the indication

"bt" appears on the display.

When operating the G1u on

batteries, it is advisable to

disconnect the guitar cable

plug from the [INPUT] jack

when not using the unit, to

conserve battery power.

3. Close the cover of the

battery compartment.

Latch

1. Turn the G1u over and open

the cover of the battery

compartment on the bottom.

Press latch to release

and then lift cover.

Operating the G1u on batteries

Four IEC R6

(size AA) batteries

2. Insert four fresh IEC

R6 (size AA) batteries.
