Power supply/Power cord

•Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy objects on it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything over it.

•Only use the voltage specified as correct for the device. The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the device.

•Use only the supplied power cord/plug.

•Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or dust which may have accumulated on it.

•Be sure to connect to an appropriate outlet with a protective grounding connection. Improper grounding can result in electrical shock.

Do not open

•This device contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not open the device or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or modify them in any way. If it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

Fire warning

•Do not put burning items, such as candles, on the unit. A burning item may fall over and cause a fire.

If you notice any abnormality

•When one of the following problems occur, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the electric plug from the outlet. Then have the device inspected by Yamaha service personnel.

-The power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged.

CAUTION

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the device or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

Power supply/Power cord

Maintenance

•When removing the electric plug from the device or an outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.

•Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the device is not to be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.

Location

•Do not place the device in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over.

•Do not use the device in a confined, poorly-ventilated location. Make sure that there is adequate space between the device and surrounding walls or other devices: at least 20 cm at the sides, 20 cm behind and 20 cm above. Inadequate ventilation can result in overheating, possibly causing damage to the device(s), or even fire.

•Do not press the rear panel of the device against the wall. Doing so may cause the plug to come in contact with the wall and detach from the power cord, resulting in short circuiting, malfunction, or even fire.

•Do not place the device in a location where it may come into contact with corrosive gases or salt air. Doing so may result in malfunction.

•Before moving the device, remove all connected cables.

•When setting up the device, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet.

•Remove the power plug from the AC outlet when cleaning the device.

Handling caution

•Do not insert your fingers or hands in any gaps or openings on the device (ports).

•Avoid inserting or dropping foreign objects (paper, plastic, metal, etc.) into any gaps or openings on the device (ports) If this happens, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the device inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.

•Do not rest your weight on the device or place heavy objects on it, and avoid use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.

•Do not use speakers for a long period of time at a high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.

•Do not operate the device 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 device, or data that is lost or destroyed.

Always turn the power off when the device is not in use.

Connections

•Before connecting the device to other devices, turn off the power for all devices. Before turning the power on or off for all devices, set all volume levels to minimum.

NOTICE

To avoid the possibility of malfunction/ damage to the product, damage to data, or damage to other property, follow the notices below.

Handling and Maintenance

•Do not expose the device 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 vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the device, since this might discolor the panel.

•When cleaning the device, use a dry and soft cloth. Do not use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-impregnated wiping cloths.

•Condensation can occur in the device due to rapid, drastic changes in ambient temperature—when the device is moved from one location to another, or air conditioning is turned on or off, for example. Using the device while condensation is present can cause damage. If there is reason to believe that condensation might have occurred, leave the device for several hours without turning on the power until the condensation has completely dried out.

•During extreme changes in temperature or humidity, condensation may occur and water may collect on the surface of the device. 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.

•Interference From Cell Phones

Using a cell phone near the speaker system can induce noise. If this occurs, move the cell phone further away from the speaker system.

•Air blowing out of the bass reflex ports is normal, and often occurs when the speaker is handling program material with heavy bass content.

•Always turn the power off when the device is not in use.

•Avoid touching or allowing objects to come in contact with the speaker diaphragms.

•These speakers should be used vertically, not laid on their side.

Connectors

•XLR-type connectors are wired as follows (IEC60268 standard): pin 1: ground, pin 2: hot (+), and pin 3: cold (-).
