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.

Caution-ii En

FCC WARNING

Change or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate
the equipment.

NOTICE

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC
Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the
instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be
determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the
following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

To satisfy FCC RF exposure requirements, a separation distance of 20 cm or more should be maintained between the antenna of this
device and persons during device operation.
To ensure compliance, operations at closer than this distance is not recommended.

Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain
approved for the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should
be so chosen that the equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication.

This transmitter must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

CAUTION

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein may result
in hazardous radiation exposure.

LASER Specification:

Class 1 LASER Product

Side: 10 cm (4 in)

3 Locate this unit away from other electrical appliances,

motors, or transformers to avoid humming sounds.

4 Do not expose this unit to sudden temperature changes from

cold to hot, and do not locate this unit in an environment with
high humidity (i.e. a room with a humidifier) to prevent
condensation inside this unit, which may cause an electrical
shock, fire, damage to this unit, and/or personal injury.

5 Avoid installing this unit where foreign object may fall onto

this unit and/or this unit may be exposed to liquid dripping or
splashing. On the top of this unit, do not place:

– Other components, as they may cause damage and/or

discoloration on the surface of this unit.

– Burning objects (i.e. candles), as they may cause fire,

damage to this unit, and/or personal injury.

– Containers with liquid in them, as they may fall and

liquid may cause electrical shock to the user and/or
damage to this unit.

6 Do not cover this unit with a newspaper, tablecloth, curtain,

etc. in order not to obstruct heat radiation. If the temperature
inside this unit rises, it may cause fire, damage to this unit,
and/or personal injury.

7 Do not plug in this unit to a wall outlet until all connections

are complete.

8 Do not operate this unit upside-down. It may overheat,

possibly causing damage.

9 Do not use force on switches, knobs and/or cords.

warm. Turn the power off, then leave this unit alone for
cooling.

20 Install this unit near the AC outlet and where the AC power

plug can be reached easily.

21 The batteries shall not be exposed to excessive heat such as

sunshine, fire or the like.

Do not use this unit within 22 cm (9 inches) of persons
with a heart pacemaker implant or defibrillator implant.

This unit is not disconnected from the AC power source
as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if this
unit itself is turned off by p. This state is called the
standby mode. In this state, this unit is designed to
consume a very small quantity of power.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC
SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR
MOISTURE.

The laser component in this product is capable of
emitting radiation exceeding the limit for Class 1.

FOR CANADIAN CUSTOMERS

care and store them in a safe place.

Proper disc storage

Place the disc in the center of the disc case
and store the case and disc upright.

Avoid storing discs in locations subject to
direct sunlight, close to heating appliances
or in locations of high humidity.

Do not drop discs or subject them to
strong vibrations or impacts.

Avoid storing discs in locations where
there are large amounts of dust or
moisture.

■ Notice for watching 3D video images

– Some people may experience discomfort (such as

eye strain, fatigue, or nausea) while watching 3D
video images. We recommend that all viewers take
regular breaks while watching 3D video images.

– If you experience any discomfort, stop watching the

3D video images until the discomfort subsides.
Consult a doctor if you experience severe
discomfort.

– Read the owner’s manuals (Blu-ray Disc and TV)

and/or the caution messages that appear on the TV
carefully.

– The vision of young children (especially those under

six years old) is still under development. Consult
your doctor (such as a pediatrician or eye doctor)
before allowing young children to watch 3D video
images.

– Adults should supervise young children to ensure

they follow the recommendations described above.
