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 (3-15/16”) 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.
* The values must be applied to China and Singapore models only.
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.

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.

• 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.
• Do not warp discs.
• When a disc is not currently being used, remove it from the
system and store in an appropriate case.
• 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!
To play an 8-cm CD

Front speakers: On both sides of and at approximately the
same height as the TV.
Center speaker: Precisely between the front speakers.
Rear speakers: Behind your listening position, facing
slightly inward. About 1.8 m (approx. six
feet) from the floor.
Subwoofer: The position of the subwoofer is not so
(not included in) critical because low bass tones are not highly
in this system) directional. However, we recommend that
you place the subwoofer anywhere in front of
your listening position.

■Mounting the rear speakers
Mount the rear speakers on a shelf, rack or on the floor, or hang
them on the wall.
To mount the rear speakers by using commercially
available speaker stands
The provided mounting bracket has 1 pair of screw holes (at an
interval of 60 mm). They are for mounting the speaker on a speaker
stand.
* These screw holes can be used with M4 screws only.
Note
It is recommended that you connect the speaker cords to the
speaker’s terminals before attaching the bracket to the speaker.

Wall or wall support
To mount the rear speakers directly on the wall
If desired, you can hang the speaker on the protruding screws on
the wall without using the bracket.
Fasten screws into a firm wall or wall support as shown left, and
hang the holes of the speaker on the protruding screws.
* Make sure that the screws are securely caught by a narrow part
of the holes.
WARNING
• Each of the rear speakers weighs 0.8 kg (1 lbs. 12 oz.). Do not
mount them on thin plywood or soft wall surface material, as the
screws may come out of the flimsy surface, causing the speakers
to fall and be damaged, or result in personal injury.
• Do not fasten the speakers to the wall with nails, adhesives, or
other unstable hardware. Long-term use and vibrations may
cause them to fall.
• To avoid accidents resulting from tripping over loose speaker
cords, fix them to the wall.
• Select a proper position on the wall to mount the speaker and the
stand so that no one will injure his/her head or face with the edge
of the stand.

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 the left front, center and right front channels.
(The cut-off frequency of this terminal is 200 Hz.)
