• Do not place any burning items or open flames near the product, since they may cause a fire.
CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the product or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Location and connection
• Do not place the product in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over and cause injuries.
• Keep the device 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 product, always use two or more people. Attempting to lift the product by yourself may damage your back, result in other injury, or cause damage to the product itself.
• 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 from the cable, resulting in short circuiting, malfunction, or even fire.
• Always consult qualified Yamaha service personnel if the product installation requires construction work, and make sure to observe the following precautions.
- Choose mounting hardware and an installation location that
can support the weight of the product.
- Avoid locations that are exposed to constant vibration.

• 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.
2 CZR series Owner’s Manual
• When choosing a power amplifier for use with this product, make sure that the output power of the amplifier is lower than the power capacity of this product. If the output power is higher than the power capacity, 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.
• Do not operate the product if the sound is distorting. Prolonged use in this condition could cause overheating and result in fire.
Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the product.
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 (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day), in order to prevent the possibility of panel disfiguration, unstable operation, or damage to the internal components.
• Do not place the speaker face down with the grille attached, as deformation of the grille may result.
• When placing the speaker face down, always place it on a flat surface.
• Do not touch the speaker driver unit.
• Be sure to observe the amplifier’s rated load impedance (see page 7), particularly when connecting speakers in parallel. Connecting an impedance load outside the ampli­fier's rated range can damage the amplifier.
• Protection Circuit This speaker system has an internal protection circuit that shuts off the speaker unit when an excessive input signal is applied. If the speaker unit emits no sound, reduce the vol­ume level of the amplifier immediately. The sound will return automatically in several seconds.
• Air blowing out of the bass reflex ports is normal, and often occurs when the speaker is handling program material with heavy bass content.
• During extreme changes in temperature or humidity, con­densation may occur and water may collect on the surface of the product. If water is left, the wooden parts may absorb the water and be damaged. Make sure to wipe any water off immediately with a soft cloth.
Connectors
• Use only Neutrik NL4 plugs for connecting speakON con­nectors.
