9Heat – The unit should be situated away from heat sources such as radiators, stoves, or other appliances that produce heat.
10Power Sources – The unit should be connected to a power supply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as marked on the unit.
11Power-Cord Protection – Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the unit.
12Cleaning – The unit should be cleaned only as recommended by the manufacturer.
13Nonuse Periods – The power cord of the unit should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time.
14Object and Liquid Entry – Care should be taken so that objects do not fall into and liquids are not spilled into the inside of the unit.
15Damage Requiring Service – The unit should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:
A.The power-supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or
B.Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the unit; or
C.The unit has been exposed to rain; or

Note to CATV system installer:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be
connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
CAUTION: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT
1To ensure the finest performance, please read this manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
2Install 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.
3Do not operate the unit upside-down. It may overheat, possibly causing damage.
4Never open the cabinet. If a foreign object drops into the set, contact your dealer.
5Do 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.
6Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents; this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.

7Always set the volume control to “–∞ ” before starting the audio source play: increase the volume gradually to an appropriate level after the play is started.
8To prevent lightning damage, pull out the power cord and remove the antenna cable during an electrical storm.
9Be sure to read the “Troubleshooting” section on common operating errors before concluding that your unit is faulty.
10Do 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.

CONNECTING SPEAKERS
Connect the SPEAKERS terminals to your speakers with wire of the proper gauge, cut to be as short as possible. If the connections are faulty, no sound will be heard from the speakers. Make sure that the polarity of the speaker wires is correct, that is, + and – markings are observed. If these wires are reversed, the sound will be unnatural and will lack bass.
Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other and do not let them touch the metal parts of this unit as this could damage this unit and/or speakers.
●One or two speaker systems can be connected to this unit. If you connect only one speaker system, connect it to either the SPEAKERS A or B terminals.
●Use speakers with the specified impedance shown on the rear of this unit.
How to Connect:
Red: positive (+)
Black: negative (–)

ABOUT THE ACCESSORY TERMINALS
AC OUTLETS
(U.S.A., Canada Europe and General models)
............................................................2 SWITCHED OUTLETS (Australia and U.K. models)
...............................................................1 SWITCHED OUTLET Use these to connect the power cords from your components to this unit.
The power to the SWITCHED outlets is controlled by this unit’s POWER switch or the provided remote control transmitter’s POWER key. These outlets will supply power to any component whenever this unit is turned on.
The maximum power (total power consumption of components) that can be connected to the SWITCHED AC OUTLETS is 100 watts (200 watts for U.S.A. and General models).
REMOTE CONTROL (PHONO) connector
If you have a YAMAHA turntable with the 
mark, connect it to this connector by using the cable provided with the turntable. This connection allows you to control the turntable from the provided remote control transmitter.
GND terminal (For turntable use)
Connecting the ground wire of the turntable to this terminal will minimize hum, but in some cases better results may be obtained with the ground wire disconnected.
