If you notice any abnormality
•If any of the following problems occur, immediately turn off the power of the amplifier.
-Unusual smells or smoke are emitted.
-Some object, or water has been dropped into the product.
-There is a sudden loss of sound during use of the product.
-Cracks or other visible damage appear on the product. Then have the product inspected or repaired by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
Do not open
•This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt to disassemble the internal parts or modify them in any way.
Water warning
•Do not expose the product to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet conditions, or place on it any containers (such as vases, bottles or glasses) containing liquids which might spill into any openings.
Fire warning
•Do not place any burning items or open flames near the product, since they may cause a fire.
Hearing loss
•Before turning the power of all devices on or off, make sure that all volume levels are set to the minimum. Failing to do so may result in hearing loss, electric shock, or device damage.
•When turning on the AC power in your audio system, always turn on the power amplifier LAST, to avoid hearing loss and speaker damage. When turning the power off, the power amplifier should be turned off FIRST for the same reason.

CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Location and connection
•Do not place the product in an unstable position or a location with excessive vibration, where it might accidentally fall over and cause injury.
•Keep this product out of reach of children. This product is not suitable for use in locations where children are likely to be present.
•Do not place the product in a location where it may come into contact with corrosive gases or salt air. Doing so may result in malfunction.
•Before moving the product, remove all connected cables.
•When transporting or moving the CHR15, always use two or more people. Attempting to lift the product by yourself may result in injuries, such as back injuries, or cause the product to be dropped and broken, which could lead to other injuries.
•Do not use the speaker’s handles for suspended installation. Doing so can result in damage or injury.
•Do not hold the bottom of the product when transporting or moving it. In doing so, you may pinch your hands under the product, and result in injury.
•Do not press the rear panel of the product against the wall. Doing so may cause the plug to come in contact with the wall and detach the cable from the connector, resulting in short circuiting, malfunction, or even fire.
•Always consult qualified Yamaha service personnel if the product installation requires construction work. Improper installation might cause accidents, injuries, damage or malfunction of this product.
•Use only speaker cables for connecting speakers to the speaker jacks. Use of other types of cables may result in fire.
Handling caution
•Do not insert your fingers or hands in any gaps or openings on the product (ports).
•Do not rest your weight on the product or place heavy objects on it.
•Make sure that the output power of the amplifier is lower than the power capacity of this product (see page 108).
If the output power is not appropriate, malfunction or fire may occur.
•Do not input excessively loud signals that may result in clipping in the amplifier or cause the following:
-Feedback, when using a microphone
-Continuous and extremely loud sound from a musical instrument, etc.
-Continuous and excessively loud distorted sound
-Noise caused by plugging/unplugging the cable while the amplifier is turned on
Even if the output power of the amplifier is lower than the power capacity of this product (program), damage to the product, malfunction or fire may occur.

NOTICE
To avoid the possibility of malfunction/damage to the product or damage to other property, follow the notices below.
Handling and maintenance
•Do not expose the product to excessive dust or vibration, or extreme cold or heat, in order to prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration, unstable operation, or damage to the internal components.
•Do not touch the speaker driver unit, since it might cause malfunction.
•Be sure to observe the amplifier’s rated load impedance (see page 108), particularly when connecting speakers in parallel. Connecting an impedance load outside the amplifier's rated range can damage the amplifier.
•When cleaning the product, use a dry and soft cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemi- cal-impregnated wiping cloths, since this might cause alteration or discoloration.
•Air blowing out of the bass reflex ports (hole or holes at the front) is normal, and often occurs when the speaker is handling program material with heavy bass content.
•Do not place the speaker face down.
Protective Circuit
•All full-range loudspeakers are fitted with a self-resetting poly switch that protects the high-frequency driver from damage caused by excessive power. If a loudspeaker cabinet loses high-frequency output, immediately remove power from the power amplifier and wait for two to three minutes. This should be long enough to allow the poly switch to reset. Reapply power and check the performance of the high-frequency driver before continuing, with the power reduced to a level that does not cause the poly switch to interrupt the signal.
