Cautions
• Allow enough free space around the DME32 for normal ventilation. This should be
10 cm at the sides, 15 cm behind, and 30 cm above. These distances should also be
adopted when rack-mounting the DME32. For normal ventilation during use, remove
the rear of the rack or open a ventilation hole. If the airflow is not adequate, the DME32
will heat up inside and may cause a fire.
• Use the DME32 in a environment with a free-air temperature of between 10˚C and
35˚C (50˚F and 95˚F).
• Turn off all audio equipment when connecting to the DME32, and use only the cables
specified in the relevant owner's manuals.
• If you plan not to use the DME32 for a long period of time, remove the power cord from
the AC outlet. Leaving the DME32 connected is a potential fire hazard.
• Do not use benzene, thinner, cleaning detergent, or a chemical cloth to clean the
DME32. Use only a soft, dry cloth.
• If the DME32 is stored in a cold place (e.g., overnight in a car), and then moved to a
warmer environment, or the temperature rises sharply, condensation may form inside
the DME32, which may affect performance. In such cases, the DME32 should be
allowed to acclimatize for about one hour before use.
• When the wordclock source is changed on the wordclock master device (e.g., AD824 or
DME32), noise may occur from the DME32's analog outputs, especially if an MY8-AT
I/O card is installed, so turn down your power amps, or turn off the DME32 before-
hand, otherwise any connected speakers may be damaged.
• If the DME32 displays the message "Warning Low Battery" when it's turned on, contact
your Yamaha dealer as soon as possible and ask them to replace the internal backup bat-
tery. Although the DME32 will continue to work in this condition, any configuration
data will be lost. It's recommended that you save any configuration data using DME
Manager or a PC Card before replacing the battery.
Interference
The DME32 uses high-frequency digital circuits that may cause interference on radio
and television equipment located nearby. If interference is a problem, relocate the
affected equipment.
DME32 Exclusion of Certain Responsibility
Manufacturer, importer, or dealer shall not be liable for any incidental damages includ-
ing personal injury or any other damages caused by improper use or operation of the
DME32.
