CAUTION: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT
1 To ensure the finest performance, please read this
manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future
reference.
2 Install your unit in a cool, dry, clean place – away from
windows, heat sources, and too much vibration, dust,
moisture or cold. Avoid sources of hum (transformers,
motors). To prevent fire or electrical shock, do not
expose to rain and water.
3 Do not operate the unit upside-down. It may overheat,
possibly causing damage.
4 Never open the cabinet. If a foreign object drops into
the set, contact your dealer.
5 Do not use force on switches, knobs or cords. When
moving the set, first turn the unit off. Then gently
disconnect the power plug and the cords connecting to
other equipment. Never pull the cord itself.
6 Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents;
this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
7 Always set the volume control to “–
” before starting
the audio source play: increase the volume gradually to
an appropriate level after the play is started.
8 To prevent lightning damage, pull out the power cord
and remove the antenna cable during an electrical
storm.
9 Be sure to read the “Troubleshooting” section on
common operating errors before concluding that your
unit is faulty.
10 Do not connect audio equipment to the AC outlets on
the rear panel if that equipment requires more power
than the outlets are rated to provide.
11 When not planning to use this unit for long periods of
time (ie., vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug
from the wall outlet.
The apparatus is not disconnected from the AC power
source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even
if the apparatus itself is turned off.
We Want You Listening For A Lifetime
YAMAHA and the Electronic Industries Association’s
Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out
of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets
the sound come through loud and clear without annoying
blaring or distortion – and, most importantly, without
affecting your sensitive hearing. Since hearing damage from
loud sounds is often undetectable until it is too
late, YAMAHA and the Electronic Industries
Association’s Consumer Electronics Group
recommend you to avoid prolonged exposure
from excessive volume levels.
