Information for Users on Collection and
Disposal of Old Equipment and Used Batteries
These symbols on the products, packaging, and/or
accompanying documents mean that used electrical
and electronic products and batteries should not be
mixed with general household waste.
For proper treatment, recovery and recycling of old
products and used batteries, please take them to
applicable collection points, in accordance with your
national legislation and the Directives 2002/96/EC
and 2006/66/EC.
■ Bluetooth
Bluetooth is a technology for wireless communication between devices
within an area of about 10 meters (33 ft) employing the 2.4 GHz frequency
band, a band which can be used without a license.
■ Handling Bluetooth communications
• The 2.4 GHz band used by Bluetooth compatible devices is a radio band
shared by many types of equipment. While Bluetooth compatible devices
use a technology minimizing the influence of other components using the
same radio band, such influence may reduce the speed or distance of
communications and in some cases interrupt communications.
• The speed of signal transfer and the distance at which communication is
possible differs according to the distance between the communicating
devices, the presence of obstacles, radio wave conditions and the type of
equipment.
• Yamaha does not guarantee all wireless connections between this unit and
devices compatible with Bluetooth function.
By disposing of these products and batteries correctly,
you will help to save valuable resources and prevent
any potential negative effects on human health and
the environment which could otherwise arise from
inappropriate waste handling.
For more information about collection and recycling
of old products and batteries, please contact your
local municipality, your waste disposal service or the
point of sale where you purchased the items.
[Information on Disposal in other
Countries outside the European
Union]
These symbols are only valid in the European Union.
If you wish to discard these items, please contact your
local authorities or dealer and ask for the correct
method of disposal.
Note for the battery symbol (bottom
