Important notes for DA824
users
Rack mounting precautions have been revised on
page “ii” in this owner’s manual. Please refer to the
following revisions rather than the corresponding
sections of the original owner’s manual.
Important Information
Cautions
•If this device is to be mounted in an EIA-standard
rack, leave the back of the rack open and make sure
that it is at least 10 cm away from walls or surfaces.
Also, if this device is to be mounted with devices
that tend to generate heat, such as power amplifiers, be sure to keep an adequate gap between this
device and the heat-generating devices or install
ventilation panels to prevent high temperatures
from developing inside this device.
Under these conditions these devices can be rackmounted. Inadequate ventilation can result in
overheating, possibly causing damage to the
device(s), or even fire.
Wichtige Hinweise für DA824Anwender
Die Vorsichtsmaßnahmen für den Rackeinbau auf
Seite ii der Bedienungsanleitung haben sich
geändert. Bitte ersetzen Sie jene Abschnitte der
ursprünglichen Bedienungsanleitung durch die hier
erwähnten Punkte.
Wichtige Hinweise
Achtung
• Lassen Sie –nach dem Einbau dieses Gerätes in ein EIARack– während des Betriebs die Rückseite offen und
sorgen Sie dafür, dass sich das Rack mindestens 10cm
von einer Wand oder anderen Gegenständen entfernt
befindet. Wenn Sie dieses Gerät in der Nähe anderer
Einheiten verwenden, die viel Wärme erzeugen, müssen
Sie einen ausreichenden Abstand zwischen diesem
Gerät und der Wärmequelle wahren. Am besten installieren Sie sogar Lüftungsblenden, damit die Heißluft so
schnell wie möglich abgeführt werden kann.
Grundsätzlich darf das Gerät nur in ein Rack eingebaut
werden, wenn man die oben erwähnten Punkte berücksichtigt. Eine unzureichende Lüftung kann nämlich zu
Überhitzung und demnach zu Schäden an dem/den
Gerät(en) oder sogar zu einem Brand führen.

Les précautions concernant le montage en rack à la
page ii de ce mode d’emploi ont été revues. Veuillez
donc vous référer aux révisions suivantes plutôt
qu’aux sections correspondantes du mode d’emploi
original.
Informations importantes
Précautions
•Si cet appareil doit être monté dans un rack EIA
standard, laissez le dos du rack ouvert et gardez
une distance d’au moins 10cm de tout mur ou
autre surface. De plus, si cet appareil est monté à
côté d’appareils générant de la chaleur, comme des
amplis de puissance, veillez à laisser un intervalle
adéquat entre cet appareil et les dispositifs générateurs de chaleur; à défaut, installez des panneaux
d’aération pour éviter que cet appareil n’atteigne
des températures excessives.
Moyennant le respect de ces précautions, l’appareil
peut être monté en rack. Une mauvaise aération
peut entraîner une surchauffe qui risque d’endommager le ou les appareils voire même causer un
incendie.

Important Information
Please read before operating the DA824
Warnings
•Do not subject the DA824 to extreme temperatures, humidity, direct sunlight, or dust,
which could be a potential fire or electrical shock hazard.
•Do not allow water to enter the DA824 or allow it to become wet. Fire or electrical shock
may result.
•Connect the power cord only to an AC outlet of the type stated in this
or as marked on the DA824. Failure to do so is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
•Hold the power-cord plug when disconnecting from an AC outlet. Never pull the cord.
A power cord damaged through pulling is a potential fire and electrical shock hazard.
•Do not touch the power plug with wet hands. Doing so is a potential electrical shock
hazard.
•Do not place heavy objects, including the DA824, on top of the power cord. A damaged
power cord is a fire and electrical shock hazard. In particular, be careful not to place
heavy objects on a power cord covered by a carpet.
•Do not scratch, bend, twist, pull, or heat the power cord. A damaged power cord is a
fire and electrical shock hazard.
•If the power cord is damaged (e.g., cut or a bare wire is exposed), ask your dealer for a
replacement. Using the DA824 with a damaged power cord is a fire and electrical shock
hazard.
•Do not plug several devices into the same AC outlet. This may overload the AC outlet,
and could be a fire or electrical shock hazard. It may also affect the performance of some
equipment.
Owner’s Manual
•If you notice any abnormality, such as smoke, odor, or noise, or if a foreign object or
liquid gets inside the DA824, turn it off immediately. Remove the power cord from the
AC outlet and consult your dealer for repair. Using the DA824 in this condition is a fire
and electrical shock hazard.
•Do not place small objects on top of the DA824. Metal objects falling inside the DA824
is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
•If a foreign object or water gets inside the DA824, turn it off immediately. Remove the
power cord from the AC outlet and consult your dealer for repair. Using the DA824 in
this condition is a potential fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Should the DA824 be dropped or the cabinet be damaged, turn off the power, remove
the power plug from the AC outlet, and contact your dealer. If you continue using the
unit without heeding this instruction, fire or electrical shock may result.
•Do not remove the DA824’s cover. You could receive an electrical shock. If you think
internal inspection, maintenance, or repair is necessary, contact your dealer.
•Do not attempt to modify the DA824. This is a potential fire and electrical shock hazard.
•Do not block the DA824 ventilation slots. Blocking the ventilation slots is a potential
fire hazard.
•Do not place a container with liquid or small metal objects on top of this unit. Liquid
or metal objects inside this unit are a fire and electrical shock hazard.

Cautions
•Allow enough free space around the unit for normal ventilation. This should be: 10 cm
at the sides, 15 cm behind, and 30 cm above. These distances should also be adopted
when rack-mounting the DA824. For normal ventilation during use, remove the rear
of the rack or open a ventilation hole. If the airflow is not adequate, the DA824 will heat
up inside and may cause a fire.
•Use the DA824 in an environment where the temperature is between 10˚C and 35˚C
(50˚F and 95˚F).
•Turn off audio devices when connecting them to the DA824, and use only the cables
specified in the relevant owner’s manuals.
•If you plan not to use the DA824 for a long period of time, remove the power cord from
the AC outlet. Leaving the DA824 connected is a potential fire hazard.
•Do not use benzene, thinner, cleaning detergent, or a chemical cloth to clean the
DA824. Use only a soft, dry cloth.
•If the DA824 is stored in a cold place (e.g., overnight in a car), and then moved to a
warmer environment, or the temperature rises sharply, condensation may form inside
the DA824, which may affect performance. In such cases, the DA824 should be allowed
to acclimatize for about one hour before use.
•When the wordclock source is changed, the DA824’s analog outputs may produce
noise, especially if an MY8-AT I/O card is installed, so turn down your power amps
beforehand. Likewise, when changing the wordclock source on the wordclock master
device (e.g., AD824 or DME32), turn down your power amps beforehand, or turn off
the DA824.
Interference
The DA824 uses high-frequency digital circuits that may cause interference on radio
and television equipment located nearby. If interference is a problem, relocate the
affected equipment.
DA824 Exclusion of Certain Responsibility
Manufacturer, importer, or dealer shall not be liable for any incidental damages including personal injury or any other damage caused by improper use or operation of the
DA824.
Yamaha cannot be held responsible for any loss of data or data damage due to improper
use or operation of the DA824.
