kitchen sink, or laundry tub; in a wet basement; or near
a swimming pool; and the like.
8 Accessories – Do not place this product on an unstable
cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product may
fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and
serious damage to the product. Use only with a cart,
stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the
manufacturer, or sold with the product. Any mounting of
the product should follow the manufacturer’s
instructions, and should use a mounting accessory
recommended by the manufacturer.
9 A product and cart combination should
be moved with care. Quick stops,
excessive force, and uneven surfaces
may cause the product and cart
combination to overturn.
10 Ventilation – Slots and openings in the
cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure
reliable operation of the product and to protect it from
overheating, and these openings must not be blocked
or covered. The openings should never be blocked by
placing the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar
surface. This product should not be placed in a built-in
installation such as a bookcase or rack unless proper
ventilation is provided or the manufacturer’s
instructions have been adhered to.
11 Power Sources – This product should be operated only
from the type of power source indicated on the marking
label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply to
your home, consult your product dealer or local power
company. For products intended to operate from
battery power, or other sources, refer to the operating
instructions.
12 Grounding or Polarization – This product may be
equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug
(a plug having one blade wider than the other). This
plug will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a
safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully
into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should
still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your
obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the
polarized plug.
13 Power-Cord Protection – Power-supply cords should
be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or
pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying
particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience

i
14 Lightning – For added protection for this product during
a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and
unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall
outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system.
This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning
and power-line surges.
15 Power Lines – An outside antenna system should not
be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or
other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall
into such power lines or circuits. When installing an
outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken
to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as
contact with them might be fatal.
16 Overloading – Do not overload wall outlets, extension
cords, or integral convenience receptacles as this can
result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
17 Object and Liquid Entry – Never push objects of any
kind into this product through openings as they may
touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that
could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid
of any kind on the product.
18 Servicing – Do not attempt to service this product
yourself as opening or removing covers may expose
you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all
servicing to qualified service personnel.
19 Damage Requiring Service – Unplug this product from
the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service
personnel under the following conditions:
a) When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged,
b) If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen
into the product,
c) If the product has been exposed to rain or water,
d) If the product does not operate normally by
following the operating instructions. Adjust only
those controls that are covered by the operating
instructions as an improper adjustment of other
controls may result in damage and will often
require extensive work by a qualified technician to
restore the product to its normal operation,
e) If the product has been dropped or damaged in
any way, and
f) When the product exhibits a distinct change in
performance - this indicates a need for service.
20 Replacement Parts – When replacement parts are
required, be sure the service technician has used
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or
have the same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric
shock, or other hazards.
21 Safety Check – Upon completion of any service or
repairs to this product, ask the service technician to
perform safety checks to determine that the product is
in proper operating condition.

Thank you for purchasing Yamaha’s YST-MS50 Powered Multimedia Speakers. Advanced Yamaha Active Servo
Technology offers exceptionally high performance, allowing these compact speakers to produce a rich bass sound.
Cautions
Please read the following operating precautions before
use:
• When you disconnect the AC power cable from an
AC outlet, hold the plug, not the cord.
• If the YST-MS50s are not going to be used for a
while, disconnect the AC power cord from the AC
receptacle.
• Always disconnect the AC power cord from the AC
receptacle before making any connections.
• The YST -MS50s do not contain any user serviceable
parts. Refer all servicing to your Yamaha dealer.
•
Never open the cabinet.
into the set, contact your dealer, and do not use the
YST-MS50s. Otherwise, you may cause a fire.
• Do not expose the YST-MS50s to temperature
extremes, direct sunlight, excessive dust, humidity,
or vibration.
• Position the YST-MS50s on a level, stable surface.
Do not drop the YST-MS50s, apply excessive force
to their controls, or put heavy items on top of them.
• Since this unit has a built-in power amplifier, heat
will radiate from the rear panel. Therefore, place
the unit away from walls, allowing a space of at
least 20 cm (7.9") above, and 10 cm (4") behind and
at the sides. Also, do not position with the rear
panel facing down on the floor or other surface.
(Subwoofer only)
• Do not obstruct the port with your hand or a foreign
object.
• To protect the YST-MS50 speakers, avoid microphone feedback, continuous and excessive output
from electronic musical instruments, and excessive
signal distortion.
• If the YST-MS50s are located close to fluorescent
or neon lights, a slight hum may be heard. In this
case, relocate the YST-MS50s away from the light.
• Although the YST-MS50 speakers are magnetically
shielded, keep floppy disks and tapes away from
them.
• The YST -MS50s may cause picture distortion when
located close to a television or computer monitor . In
this case, move them away a short distance.
• Avoid sources of hum (transformers, motors). To
prevent fire or electrical shock, do not expose to
rain and water.
• Do not use force on switches, knobs, or cables.
When you move the YST-MS50, first turn off the
power to the speakers, then disconnect the power
cable from the AC outlet and the cables from the
connected devices.
• Always turn the volume control counterclockwise
to the minimum before starting to play the audio
source: increase the volume gradually to an appropriate level after the playback has started.
If a foreign object drops
• Do not turn off the POWER switch on the subwoofer while the (standby/on) button on the
front panel of the right satellite speaker is on (while
the standby/on indicator is lit). Otherwise, the
speakers may be damaged.
Note for headphone:
When you use headphones, make sure that they have a
cable of less than 3m. (UK and Europe models)
