PRECAUTIONS & SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. AVOID EXCESSIVE HEAT, HUMIDITY, DUST
AND VIBRATION
Keep the unit away from locations where it is likely to be
exposed to high temperatures or humidity—such as
near radiators, stoves, etc. Also avoid locations which
are subject to excessive dust accumulation or vibration
which could cause mechanical damage.
2. INSTALL THE UNIT IN WELL-VENTILATED
CONDITION
The openings on the cabinet assure proper ventilation
of the unit. If these openings are obstructed, the
temperature inside the cabinet will rise rapidly.
Therefore, avoid placing objects against these
openings, and install the unit in well-ventilated
condition. Make sure to allow a space of at least 10
cm behind and on the both sides and at least 20 cm
above the top panel of the unit. Otherwise it may not
only damage the unit, but also cause fire.
3. KEEP THE AC POWER PLUG
DISCONNECTED DURING VACATION ETC.
When not planning to use this unit for long periods of
time (ie., vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power
plug from the wall outlet.
4. AVOID PHYSICAL SHOCKS
Strong physical shocks to the unit can cause damage.
Handle it with care.
5. DO NOT OPEN THE UNIT OR ATTEMPT
REPAIRS OR MODIFICATIONS YOURSELF
This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Refer
all maintenance to qualified Yamaha service personnel.
Opening the unit and/or tampering with the internal
circuitry will make servicing difficult and will endanger
you and your unit.
6. MAKE SURE POWER IS OFF BEFORE
MAKING OR REMOVING CONNECTIONS
Always turn power OFF prior to connecting or
disconnecting cables. This is important to prevent
damage to the unit itself as well as other connected
equipment.

the unit. Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth.

SOURCE
Make sure that the power source voltage specified on
the rear panel matches your local AC mains supply.
