Installation Precautions
Before installing the optional hardware, make sure you have
a Phillips screwdriver and ample space to work.
WARNING
• Before beginning installation, switch off the power to the instrument
and connected peripherals, and unplug them from the power outlet.
Installation or removal of any devices should be started ONLY after
the instrument (and the optional hardware) returns to normal room
temperature. Then remove all cables connecting the instrument to
other devices. (Leaving the power cord connected while working
can result in electric shock. Leaving other cables connected can
interfere with work.)
• Be careful not to drop any screws inside the instrument during
installation. (This can be prevented by keeping the optional units
and cover away from the instrument while attaching). If this does
happen, be sure to remove the screw(s) from inside the unit before
turning the power on. Loose screws inside the instrument can
cause improper operation or serious damage. If you are unable to
retrieve a dropped screw, consult your Yamaha dealer for advice.
• Install the optional units carefully as described in the procedure
below. Improper installation can cause shorts which may result in
irreparable damage and pose a fire hazard.
• Do not disassemble, modify, or apply excessive force to board areas
and connectors on optional units. Bending or tampering with
boards and connectors may lead to electric shock, fire, or
equipment failures.
CAUTION
• It is recommended that you wear gloves to protect your hands from
metallic projections on optional units and other components.
Touching leads or connectors with bare hands may cause finger
cuts, and may also result in poor electrical contact or electrostatic
damage.
• Be careful of static electricity. Static electricity discharge can
damage the IC chips on the FW16E. Before you handle the optional
FW16E, to reduce the possibility of static electricity, touch
unpainted metal parts or a ground wire on the devices that are
grounded.
• Handle the optical units with care. Dropping or subjecting them to
any kind of shock may cause damage or result in a malfunction.
• Do not touch the exposed metal parts in the circuit board. Touching
these parts may result in a faulty contact.
• Be careful not to misplace any of the screws.
• Do not use any screws other than what are installed on the
instrument. Use of incorrect screws can cause damage.
