INFORMATION RELATING TO PERSONAL INJURY, ELECTRICAL SHOCK,
AND FIRE HAZARD POSSIBILITIES HAS BEEN INCLUDED IN THIS LIST.
WARNING — When using any electrical or electronic prod
uct, basic precautions should always be followed. These pre
cautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
\ _ Read all Safety Instructions, Installation Instructions,
Special Message Section items, and any Assembly
Instructions found in this manual BEFORE making any con
nections, including connection to the main supply.
2^ Main Power Supply Verification: Yamaha products are
manufactured specifically for the supply voltage in the
area where they tu'e to be sold. If you should move, or if any
doubt exists about the supply voltage in your area, please
contact your dealer for supply voltage verification and (if
applicable) instructions. The required supply voltage is printed
on the name plate. For name plate location, please refer to the
graphic found in the Special Message Section of this manual.
3 This product may be equipped with a polarized plug (one
blade wider than the other). If you are unable to insert the
plug into the outlet, turn the plug over and try again. If the
problem persists, contact an electrician to have the obsolete
outlet replaced. DO NOT defeat the safety puipo.se of the plug.
4. DANGER — Grounding Instructions: Disklavier Grand
must be grounded and therefore has been equipped with
a three pin attachment plug. If this product should malfunction,
the ground pin provides a path of low resistance for electrical
current, reducing the risk of electrical shock. If your wall socket
will not accommodate this type plug, contact an electrician to
have the outlet replaced in accordance with local electrical
codes. Do NOT modify the plug or change the plug to a
different type!
5, WARNING: Do not place this product or any other
objects on the power cord or place it in a position where
anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything over power or
connecting cords of any kind. The use of an extension cord is
not recommended! If you must use an extension cord, the
minimum wire size for a 25’ cord (or less) is 18 AWG. NOTE:
The smaller the AWG number, the larger the current handling
capacity. For longer extension cords, consult a local electrician.
^ Ventilation: Electronic products, unless specifically de
signed for enclosed installations, should be placed in
locations that do not inteifere with proper ventilation. If
instructions for enclosed installations are not provided, it must
be assumed that unobstructed ventilation is required.
7^ Temperature considerations: Electronic products should
be installed in locations that do not significantly contrib
ute to their operating temperature. Placement of this product
close to heat sources such as; radiators, heat registers and other
devices that produce heat should be avoided.
This product was NOT designed for use in wet/damp
locations and should not be used near water or exposed to
rain. Examples of wet/damp locations are; near a swimming
pool, spa, tub, sink, or wet basement.
9. This product should be used only with the components
supplied or; a cart, rack, or stand that is recommended by
the manufacturer. If a cart, rack, or stand is used, please observe
all safety mtu'kings and instructions that accompany the acces-
S017
product.
10. The power supply cord (plug) should be disconnected
from the outlet when electronic products are to be left
unused for extended periods of time. Cords should also be
disconnected when there is a high probability of lightning
and/or electrical storm activity.
I \ ^ Care should taken that objects do not fall and liquids tu'e
not spilled into the enclosure through any openings that
may exist.
12. Electrical/electronic products should be .serviced by a
qualified service person when:
a. The power supply cord has been damaged; or
b. Objects have fallen, been inserted, or liquids have
been spilled into the enclosure through openings; or
c. The product has been exposed to rain; or
d. The product does not operate, exhibits a marked
change in performance; or
e. The product has been dropped, or the enclosure of
the product has been damaged.
13. Do not attempt to service this product beyond that
de.scribed in the user-maintainance instructions. All other
servicing should be referred to qualified .service personnel.
14. This product, either alone or in combination with an
amplifier and headphones or speaker/s, may be capable of
producing sound levels that could cause permanent hearing
loss. DO NOT operate for a long period of time at a high
volume level or at a level that is uncomfortable. If you
experience any hetu'ing loss or ringing in the ears, you should
consult an audiologist. IMPORTANT: The louder the sound,
the shorter the time period before damage occurs.
15. Some Yamaha products may have benches and/or acces-
soiy mounting fixtures that are either supplied as a part or

Important
Read the following before operating the Disklavier.
Warnings
• Do not locate the Disklavier in a place subject to excessive heat, low temperatures, or direct
sunlight. This could be a fire hazard and may damage the finish and internal paits.
• Excessive humidity or dust can lead to fire or electric shock.
• Connect the plug on the Disklavier power cable to a compatible AC outlet. Failure to do so will
present a fire and electric shock hazard. If the power cable plug is not compatible with your AC
outlet, consult your dealer.
• Do not plug several devices into the same AC outlet. This can overload the AC outlet, and lead to
fire and electric shock hiizai'd. It may also affect the performance of some devices.
• Do not place heavy objects on the power cable. A damaged power cable is a potential fire and
electric shock hazard. If the power cable runs under a carpet, make sure heavy objects, including
the Disklavier, are not placed on top of the cable.
• If the power cable is damaged (i.e. cut or a bcire wire is exposed), ask your dealer for a replacement.
Using the Disklavier in this condition is a fire and shock hazard.
• When disconnecting the power cable from an AC outlet, always pull from the plug. Never pull the
cable. Damaging the cable in this way is a potential fire and electric shock hazard.
• The cover of the unit should be removed only by qualified service technicians.
• Do not place liquid containers such as vases, potted plants, glasses, cosmetic bottles, medicines, etc.,
on top of the Disklavier.
• Do not try to modify the Disklavier, as this could lead to fire or electric shock hazard.
• When moving the Disklavier to another location, turn off the power, remove the power plug Irom
the AC outlet, and remove all cables connected to external devices.
Cautions
• Turn off all audio devices when connecting to the Disklavier. Refer to the user’s guide for each
device. Use the correct cables and connect as specified.
• Set the volume level on all the devices to minimum before applying power.
• Do not play the Disklavier at a high volume for extended periods; you may damage your hearing.
This is especially important when using headphones. If you think your hearing ability is impaired,
consult your doctor.
• If the Disklavier is worked extremely hai'd - that is, prolonged playback of veiy “busy” songs - the
Disklavier’s thermal relay may trip. The thermal relay will automatically reset when the Disklavier
has cooled down.
• If you notice any abnormality - such as smoke, odor, or noise - turn off the Disklavier immediately,
and remove the power plug from the AC outlet. Consult your dealer for repair.
• If a foreign object or water gets inside the Disklavier turn it off immediately, and remove the power
plug from the AC outlet. Consult your dealer.
• If you plan not to use the Disklavier for a long period of time (such as when you are on vacation),
disconnect the electrical mains.
