CAUTION: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT.

1To assure the finest performance, please read this manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.

2Install this sound system in a well ventilated, cool, dry, clean place with at least 10 cm on the top, 10 cm on the left and right, and 10 cm at the back of RDX-E700 — away from direct sunlight, heat sources, vibration, dust, moisture, and/or cold.

3Locate this unit away from other electrical appliances, motors, or transformers to avoid humming sounds.

4Do not expose this unit to sudden temperature changes from cold to hot, and do not locate this unit in an environment with high humidity (i.e. a room with a humidifier) to prevent condensation inside this unit, which may cause an electrical shock, fire, damage to this unit, and/or personal injury.

5Avoid installing this unit where foreign object may fall onto this unit and/or this unit may be exposed to liquid dripping or splashing. On the top of this unit, do not place:

–Other components, as they may cause damage and/or discoloration on the surface of this unit.

–Burning objects (i.e. candles), as they may cause fire, damage to this unit, and/or personal injury.

–Containers with liquid in them, as they may fall and liquid may cause electrical shock to the user and/or damage to this unit.

6Do not cover this unit with a newspaper, tablecloth, curtain, etc. in order not to obstruct heat radiation. If the temperature inside this unit rises, it may cause fire, damage to this unit, and/or personal injury.

7Do not plug in this unit to a wall outlet until all connections are complete.

8Do not operate this unit upside-down. It may overheat, possibly causing damage.

9Do not use force on switches, knobs and/or cords.

10When disconnecting the power cable from the wall outlet, grasp the plug; do not pull the cable.

11Do not clean this unit with chemical solvents; this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.

12Only voltage specified on this unit must be used. Using this unit with a higher voltage than specified is dangerous and may cause fire, damage to this unit, and/or personal injury. YAMAHA will not be held responsible for any damage resulting from use of this unit with a voltage other than specified.

13To prevent damage by lightning, keep the power cord and outdoor antennas disconnected from a wall outlet or the unit during a lightning storm.

14Do not attempt to modify or fix this unit. Contact qualified YAMAHA service personnel when any service is needed. The cabinet should never be opened for any reasons.

15When not planning to use this unit for long periods of time (i.e. vacation), disconnect the AC power plug from the wall outlet.

16Be sure to read the “TROUBLESHOOTING” section on common operating errors before concluding that this unit is faulty.

17Before moving this unit, press STANDBY/ON to set this unit in standby mode, and disconnect the AC power plug from the wall outlet.

18Condensation will form when the surrounding temperature changes suddenly. Disconnect the power cable from the outlet, then leave the unit alone.

19When using the unit for a long time, the unit may become warm. Turn the power off, then leave the unit alone for cooling.

This unit is not disconnected from the AC power source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if this unit itself is turned off. This state is called the standby mode. In this state, this unit is designed to consume a very small quantity of power.

FOR CANADIAN CUSTOMERS

To prevent electric shock, match wide blade of plug to wide slot and fully insert.

This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.

DANGER

When this unit is plugged to the wall outlet, do not place your eyes close to the opening of the disc tray and other openings to look into inside.

The laser component in this product is capable of emitting radiation exceeding the limit for Class 1.

WARNING

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.

■ For U.K. customers

If the socket outlets in the home are not suitable for the plug supplied with this appliance, it should be cut off and an appropriate 3 pin plug fitted. For details, refer to the instructions described below.

Note

The plug severed from the mains lead must be destroyed, as a plug with bared flexible cord is hazardous if engaged in a live socket outlet.

■ Special Instructions for U.K. Model

IMPORTANT

THE WIRES IN MAINS LEAD ARE COLOURED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE FOLLOWING CODE:

Blue: NEUTRAL

Brown: LIVE

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead of this apparatus may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows: The wire which is coloured BLUE must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or coloured BLACK. The wire which is coloured BROWN must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L or coloured RED.

Making sure that neither core is connected to the earth terminal of the three pin plug.

CONNECTING SPEAKERS

Follow the procedure below to connect speakers to the DVD receiver. Here, the connection example uses the YAMAHA NX-E700 (consisting of two speakers) and its supplied cables. For information on your speakers, refer to the owner’s manual for the speakers.

y

You can also use commercially available speakers (see page 8).

Notes

• Do not connect the power cable of the DVD receiver until all cable connections are completed.

PREPARATION

• Be sure to connect the left channel (L), right channel (R), “+” (red) and “–” (black) properly. If the connections are faulty, no sound

will be heard from the speakers, and if the polarity of the speaker connections is incorrect, the sound will be unnatural and lack bass.

• Do not let the bare speaker wires touch each other or do not let them touch any metal part of this unit. This could damage the DVD

receiver and/or the speakers.

• Use speakers with the specified impedance shown on the rear panel of this unit.

• Use magnetically shielded speakers. If this type of speakers still creates the interference with the monitor, place the speakers away

from the monitor.

Notes

•Do not connect the power cable of the DVD receiver or subwoofer until all cable connections are completed.

•The low frequency range of the downmixed sound is output at the SUBWOOFER OUT jack.

■ Notes on the speaker cord

A speaker cord is actually a pair of insulated cables running side by side. One cable is colored or shaped differently, perhaps with a stripe, groove or ridge. Connect the striped (grooved, etc.) cable to the “+” (red) terminals on the DVD receiver and your speaker. Connect the plain cable to the “–” (black) terminals on the DVD receiver and your speaker.
