2Retain Instructions – The safety and operating instructions should be retained for future reference.

3Heed Warnings – All warnings on the unit and in the operating instructions should be adhered to.

4Follow Instructions – All operating and other instructions should be followed.

5Water and Moisture – The unit should not be used near water – for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc.

6Carts and Stands – The unit should be used only with a cart or stand that is recommended by the manufacturer.

6A A unit and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the unit and cart combination to overturn.

7Wall or Ceiling Mounting – The unit should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

8Ventilation – The unit should be situated so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, the unit should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface, that may block the ventilation openings; or placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings.

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

D.The unit does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a marked change in performance; or

E.The unit has been dropped, or the cabinet damaged.

16Servicing – The user should not attempt to service the unit beyond those means described in the operating instructions. All other servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.

17Power Lines – An outdoor antenna should be located away from power lines.

18Grounding or Polarization – Precautions should be taken so that the grounding or polarization is not defeated.

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.

9When not planning to use this unit for long periods of time (ie., vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the wall outlet.

10Be sure to read the “Troubleshooting” section on common operating errors before concluding that your unit is faulty.

11Do 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.

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.

CONNECTING SPEAKERS

Connect the SPEAKERS terminals to your speakers with wire of the proper gauge, cut 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.

How to Connect:

Red: positive (+) Black: negative (–)

2

1

3

Unscrew the knob.

Insert the bare wire. [Remove approx. 5mm (1/4”) insulation from the speaker wires.]

Tighten the knob and secure the wire.

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.

Banana Plug connections are also possible (except for Scandinavian models). Simply insert the Banana Plug connector into the corresponding terminal.

ENGLISH

ABOUT THE ACCESSORY TERMINALS

AC OUTLETS (SWITCHED)

<Except Australia, U.K. and Europe models of AX-470>

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.

REMOTE CONTROL (PHONO) connector

If you have a YAMAHA turntable with a terminal for remote control, 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 normally minimize hum, but in some cases better results may be obtained with the ground wire disconnected.

PRE OUT/MAIN IN terminals

<For AX-570 only>

Removing the jumper pins enables this unit to independently perform the functions of a control amplifier and a power amplifier. These terminals are for connection of a signalprocessing system such as a graphic equalizer or sound processor.

If a sound processor or other component is connected, the VOLUME control of this unit can be used for overall adjustment of the level of sound. To connect such a unit, remove the jumper pins from the PRE OUT/MAIN IN terminals, connect the inputs of that unit to the PRE OUT terminals and its outputs to the MAIN IN terminals. For details, refer to the owner’s manual included with the unit to be connected.
