English
Set this system by allowing enough spaces around and behind the main unit to assure good ventilation. Be sure not to place another unit or any object on top of
the main unit to prevent the ventilation holes from being obstructed. Otherwise, it may cause fire or damage to the main unit.
Caution
When placing the speakers apart from the main unit, be sure to allow spaces of at least 20 cm above, behind and on both sides of the main unit. If the main unit
is put inside a rack, the front of it must be fully opened.
Français
Installer ce système en laissant assez d’espace autour et derrière l’appareil principal pour assurer une bonne ventilation. Veiller à ne pas empiler un autre
appareil ou un autre objet sur l’appareil principal afin de ne pas boucher les orifices de ventilation. Sinon, on risquerait de provoquer un incendie ou
d’endommager l’appareil principal.
Attention
Lorsqu’on place les enceintes à une certaine distance de l’appareil principal, veiller à laisser un espace d’au moins 20 cm au-dessus, derrière et sur les deux
côtés de l’appareil principal. Si l’on place l’appareil principal dans un meuble, veiller à ce que le côté avant du meuble soit grand ouvert.
Deutsch
Stellen Sie das System so auf, daß um und hinter dem Gerät genügend freier Raum vorhanden ist, um eine ausreichende Belüftung zu gewährleisten. Es dürfen
keine anderen Geräte oder Gegenstände auf das Gerät gestellt werden, weil die Belüftungsschlitze nicht abgedeckt werden dürfen. Bei abgedeckten
Belüftungsöffnungen kann ein Brand verursacht werden oder das Gerät kann beschädigt werden.
Achtung
Wenn die Lautsprecher vom Gerät entfernt aufgestellt werden, muß ein freier Abstand von mindestens 20 cm über, hinter und auf beiden Seiten des Gerätes
vorhanden sein. Wenn das Gerät in einem Regal oder Schrank aufgestellt wird, so muß die Vorderseite vollständig geöffnet sein.
Svenska
Vid placeringen av anläggningen, skall du se till att det finns tillräckligt med fritt utrymme runt om samt bakom huvudapparaten, för att tillförsäkra en bra
ventilation. Var noga med att inte ställa någon annan apparat eller något föremål ovanpå huvudapparaten för att förhindra att ventilationshålen blir blockerade.
Annars kan huvudapparaten utsättas för brand eller skadas på annat sätt.
Observera
När högtalarna ställs separat från huvudapparaten, skall du förvissa dig om att det finns ett fritt utrymme på minst 20 cm ovanför, bakom och på
huvudapparatens båda sidor. Om huvudapparaten placeras i en stereomöbel, måste möbelns framsida lämnas helt öppen.
Italiano
Installare il sistema lasciando sufficiente spazio intorno e dietro all’apparecchio centrale per garantire una ventilazione sufficiente. Evitare assolutamente di
posizionare altri dispositivi o oggetti sulla parte superiore dell’apparecchio centrale onde evitare di ostruirne le aperture per la ventilazione presenti. In caso
contrario possono verificarsi incendi, o l’apparecchio può subire danni.
Avvertenza
Se si installano gli altoparlanti lontano dall’apparecchio principale, quest’ultimo deve essere posizionato in modo da avere almeno 20 cm di spazio libero
sopra, dietro e suoi due lati. Se si installa l’apparecchio principale in uno scaffale, il lato anteriore dello scaffale deve essere completamente aperto.
Español
Instale el sistema dejando suficiente espacio alrededor y detrás de la unidad principal para garantizar una buena circulación de aire. No instale otro aparato o un
objeto encima de la unidad principal porque obstruirá los orificios de salida de aire. Puede provocar un fuego o dañar la unidad principal.
Precaución
Cuando instale los altavoces alejados de la unidad principal, asegúrese de dejar un espacio de por lo menos 20 cm encima, detrás y a ambos lados de la unidad
principal. Si se coloca la unidad principal dentro de un mueble, no debe cerrar la tapa delantera.
Nederlands
Zorg ervoor bij de opstelling van dit systeem dat er voldoende ruimte rondom en aan de achterzijde van de hoofdeenheid is voor het verkrijgen van een goede
ventilatie. Plaats geen andere apparatuur of voorwerpen bovenop de hoofdeenheid om te voorkomen dat de ventilatieopeningen geblokkeerd raken. Anders kan
dit brandgevaar en beschadiging van de hoofdeenheid veroorzaken.
Gevaar
Bij het opstellen van de luidsprekers op afstand van de hoofdeenheid, een ruimte van tenminste 20 cm aan de bovenzijde, achterzijde en aan de linker en
rechter zijde van de hoofdeenheid open laten. Als de hoofdeenheid in een rek wordt geplaatst, dient de voorzijde ervan volledig open te zijn.

Precautions: Read this before operating your system
■ To assure the finest performance, please read this manual
carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
■ Choose the installation location of this system carefully. Avoid
placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also
avoid locations subject to vibration and excessive dust, heat,
cold or moisture. Keep it away from sources of hum such as
transformers and electric motors.
■ Do not operate this system upside-down. It may overheat,
possibly causing damage.
■ Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the set, contact
your dealer.
■ The openings on the main unit cover assure proper ventilation
of the main unit. If these openings are obstructed, the
temperature inside the main unit will rise rapidly. Avoid
placing objects against these openings, and install the main
unit in a well-ventilated area to prevent fire or damage.
■ Always set the VOLUME control to minimum before starting
an audio source play. Increase the volume gradually to an
appropriate level after play has started.
■ When not planning to use this system for a long period of time
(ie., vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the
wall outlet.
■ Grounding or polarization – Precautions should be taken so
that the grounding or polarization of this system is not
defeated.
■ Do not use force on switches, controls or connection wires.
When moving the main unit, first disconnect the power plug
and the wires connected to other equipments. Never pull the
wire itself.
■ If an external appliance (TV, radio, etc.) interferes with the
operation of this system, move the main unit away from such
appliance.
■ Do not attempt to clean this system with chemical solvents as
this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
■ Be sure to read the “Troubleshooting” section regarding
common operating errors before concluding that this system is
faulty.
■ To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC power plug
and the antenna cable when there is an electric storm.
■ Do not plug the AC power plug to the wall socket before you
finish all connections.
■ Never allow metallic items (e.g. screwdrivers, tools, etc.) to
come near the tape deck’s record/playback head assembly.
Doing so may not only scratch or damage the head’s mirrorsmooth finish, it may change the magnetic characteristics of
the heads, causing a deterioration in reproduction performance
quality.
■ Although the tape deck’s record/playback heads are of high
quality with outstanding reproduction characteristics, they can
get dirty through the use of old tapes or from dust
accumulation over time. This can have a serious effect on
reproduction quality. Clean the heads regularly with
commonly available head cleaners or with cleaning solutions.
■ The voltage to be used must be the same as that specified on
this system. Using this system with a higher voltage than
specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other types of
accidents causing damage. YAMAHA will not be held
responsible for any damage resulting from use of this system
with a voltage other than specified.
■ The sound level at a given volume setting depends on speaker
location and other factors. Care should be taken to avoid
exposure to sudden high levels of sound, which may occur
when turning this system on with the volume control setting at
high. Also avoid exposure to continuous high levels of sound.
■ Sudden temperature changes and storage or operation in an
extremely humid environment may cause condensation inside
the cabinet. Condensation can cause this system to
malfunction.
To eliminate condensation:
• Pickup
Leave the power on with no disc loaded until normal play
becomes possible (about 1 hour).
• Tape head
Leave the power on with no tape loaded until normal
playback becomes possible (about 1 hour).
Note:
If condensation forms on the tape head, dirt or dust may
accumulate during use.
• Remote control
Wipe off condensation on the transmission window with a
soft cloth before operating this system.
■ The carousel will turn when you open the disc tray by pressing
OPEN/CLOSE; therefore, make sure the carousel stopped
moving completely before you perform further operations such
as placing or removing a disc from the disc tray. Otherwise,
you may cause damage to your discs, or you might injure
yourself.

NOTES ABOUT DISCS
To prevent a malfunction of this
system:
• Do not use any nonstandard shaped disc
(heart etc.) available on the market
because it might damage the system.
• Do not use a disc with tape, seals, or
paste on it. If you use such a disc, a disc may get stuck
in the system, or damage to the system may result.
Notes about handling discs
• Always handle the disc with care so that its surface is not
scratched.
• Discs are not subjected to wear during play, but damage to the
disc surface when the disc is being handled can adversely
affect the disc’s play.
• Be sure to use a felt-tip pen or similar writing tool when
writing on the label side of the disc. Do not use a ball-point
pen, pencil, or other hard-tipped writing tool, as these may
damage the disc and may adversely affect the disc’s play.
English
• Discs are not affected by small particles of dust or fingerprints
on their playing surface, but even so they should be kept clean.
Wipe by using a clean, dry cloth. Do not wipe with a circular
motion; wipe straight outward from the center.
• Do not try to clean the disc’s surface by using any type of disc
cleaner, record spray, anti-static spray or liquid, or any other
chemical-based liquid because such substances might
irreparably damage the disc’s surface.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high temperature or
high humidity for a long period of time because these might
warp or otherwise damage the disc.
No!
• Do not warp discs.
• When a disc is not currently being used, remove it from the
system and store in an appropriate case.
• When removing or storing a disc, be careful not to scratch the
playing surface.
To play an 8-cm CD
Place it in the inner recessed area of the disc tray. Do not put a
normal (12-cm) CD on top of an 8-cm CD.

• The area between the remote control and the main unit must be clear of
large obstacles.
• Do not expose the remote control sensor to strong lighting, in particular,
an inverter type fluorescent lamp. Otherwise, the remote control may not
work properly. If necessary, position the main unit away from direct
lighting.
Battery replacement
If you find that the remote control must be used closer to the main
unit, the batteries are weak. Replace both batteries with new ones.

■ Connecting speakers
To AC outlet
Connect the speakers to the corresponding speaker terminals on the rear of the main unit by using the speaker cords. Make
sure that the polarity of the speaker cords is correct, that is the + and – markings are observed. If these cords are reversed,
the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.

Caution
Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other as this could damage the amplifier and/or speakers.
When connecting a subwoofer (not included in this system)
You may wish to add a subwoofer to reinforce the bass frequencies.
When connecting a subwoofer to this system, connect the SUBWOOFER OUT terminal of this system to the INPUT
terminal of the subwoofer.
* Ordinary subwoofers, including the Yamaha Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System, are designed so that both the
amplifier and subwoofer are contained in the same unit.
* The SUBWOOFER OUT terminal outputs low frequencies from both the left and right channels. (The cut-off
frequency of this terminal is 200 Hz.)

■Antenna connection
(1) Supplied FM antenna
Connect the FM antenna wire to the corresponding terminal and
direct it to the direction where the strongest signal can be received.
(2) Supplied AM loop antenna
Connect the AM loop antenna wires to the corresponding
terminals. Position the AM loop antenna for optimum reception.
Notes
• When static is still heard even after adjusting the position of the AM loop
antenna, try reversing the wire connections (from the right terminal to
the left one, and vice versa).
• The AM loop antenna should be placed apart from the main unit. The
antenna may be hung on a wall.
Using an external antenna
• If you need better reception, use an external FM antenna instead
of an indoor FM antenna. Consult your dealer.
• Use an external AM antenna if you need better reception.
Consult your dealer.
