tect you and others from any damage or injuries. Please follow and obey these precautions.

■ About the Icons
: This icon indicates points which should be paid attention to.
Do not throw or swing the instrument when oth-
ers are close by.
The mouthpiece or other parts may fall off hitting other
people. Always treat the instrument gently.
Keep the oil, polish, etc., out of children's
mouths.
Keep the oil, polish, etc., out of children's reach and do
maintenance when children are not present.
Be aware of climatic conditions such as tem-
perature, humidity, etc.
Keep the instrument away from heat sources such as
heaters, etc. Also, do not use or store the instrument
in any extreme conditions of temperature or humidity.
Doing so may result in damage to key balance, linkage,
or pads, resulting in problems during performance.
In regards to brass instruments with a plate finish, the color of the finish may change over time however, it should
be of no concern in regards to the instrument's performance. Discoloration in its early stage can easily be removed
with maintenance. (As discoloration progresses, it may be difficult to remove.)
* Please use the accessories that are specified for use with the particular type of finish found on the instrument. Also, metal pol-
ishes remove a thin layer of the finish's top coat which will make the finish thinner. Please be aware of this before using polish.
Some instruments are shipped with a black cap attached to the end
of the 3rd valve slide ring (A in the diagram) to prevent the ring from
being lost during shipping.
The cap can be removed before you start playing, but leaving it in
place will not affect the operation of the instrument.
