Precautions: Read this before operating your system
English
To assure the finest performance, please read this manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
Choose the installation location of this system carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight or close to a source of heat. Also avoid locations subject to vibration and excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture. Keep it away from sources of hum such as transformers and electric motors.
Do not operate this system upside-down. It may overheat, possibly causing damage.
Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the set, contact your dealer.
The openings on the main unit cover assure proper ventilation of the main unit. If these openings are obstructed, the temperature inside the unit will rise rapidly. Therefore, avoid placing objects against these openings, and install the main unit in a well-ventilated area to prevent fire and damage.
Always set the VOLUME control to minimum before starting an audio source play: increase the volume gradually to an appropriate level after play has started.
When not planning to use this system for long periods of time (ie., vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the wall outlet.
Grounding or polarization – Precautions should be taken so that the grounding or polarization of this system is not defeated.
Do not use force on switches, controls or connection wires. When moving the main unit, first disconnect the power plug and the wires connected to other equipment. Never pull the wire itself.
If an external appliance (TV, radio, etc.) interferes with this system operation, move the main unit away from such an appliance.
Do not attempt to clean this system with chemical solvents; this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
Be sure to read the “Troubleshooting” section regarding common operating errors before concluding that this system is faulty.
Although the tape deck’s record/playback heads are high quality heads with outstanding reproduction characteristics, they can become dirty through the use of old tapes or from dust accumulation over time. This can have a serious effect on reproduction quality. Clean the heads regularly with one of the commonly available head cleaners or with cleaning solutions.
The voltage to be used must be the same as that specified on this system. Using this system with a higher voltage than specified is dangerous and may result in a fire or other types of accidents causing damage. YAMAHA will not be held responsible for any damage resulting from use of this system with a voltage other than specified.
The sound level at a given volume setting depends on speaker location and other factors. Care should be taken to avoid exposure to sudden high levels of sound, which may occur when turning on this system with the volume control setting at high, and to continuous high levels of sound.
Sudden temperature changes and storage or operation in an extremely humid environment may cause condensation inside the cabinet. Condensation can cause this system to malfunction.
To eliminate condensation:
CD pickup/MD pickup
Leave the power on with no disc loaded until normal play becomes possible (about 1 hour).
Tape head
Leave the power on with no tape loaded until normal playback becomes possible (about 1 hour).
Note
If condensation forms on the tape head, dirt or dust may accumulate during use.
Remote control
Wipe off condensation on the transmission window with a soft cloth before operating this system.
To prevent a malfunction of this system:
Do not use any non standard shaped compact disc
(heart etc.) available on the market, because it may damage this system. Do not use a compact disc with tape, seals, or paste on
it, because damage to this system may result.
To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC power plug and the antenna cable when there is an electrical storm.
Do not plug the AC power plug to the wall socket before you finish all connections.
Never allow metallic items (e.g. screwdrivers, tools, etc.) to come near the tape deck’s record/playback head assembly. Doing so may not only scratch or damage the head’s mirror-smooth finish, it may change the magnetic characteristics of the heads, causing a deterioration in reproduction performance quality.
This system is not disconnected from the AC power source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if this system itself is turned off. This state is called the standby mode. In this state, this system is designed to consume a certain level of power.
Note
Please check the copyright laws in your country to record from records, compact discs, minidiscs, radio, etc. Record­ing of copyright material may infringe copyright laws.

Notes
The area between the remote control and the main unit must be clear of large obstacles.
Do not expose the remote control sensor to strong lighting, in particular, an inverter type fluorescent lamp. Otherwise, the remote control may not work properly. If necessary, position the main unit away from direct lighting.
Battery replacement
If you find that the remote control must be used closer to the main unit, the batteries are weak. Replace both batteries with new ones.

When connecting a subwoofer (separate purchase)
You may wish to add a subwoofer to reinforce the bass frequencies. When connecting a subwoofer to this system, connect the SUBWOOFER OUT terminal of this system to the INPUT terminal of the subwoofer. * Ordinary subwoofers, including the Yamaha Active Servo Processing Subwoofer System, are designed so that the amplifier and
subwoofer are in the same unit.
* The SUBWOOFER OUT terminal outputs low frequencies from both left and right channels.
(The cut-off frequency of this terminal is 200 Hz.)

m Connecting external components
This system can be connected with external audio components.
Connect an audio component to the AUX terminals on the
rear of the main unit by using RCA pin plug connector cables correctly, that is to say L (left) to L and R (right) to R. Also, refer to the owner’s manual for the component to be connected to this system. If a tape deck is connected to the AUX (OUT) terminals, a source played on this system or radio program can be recorded with the tape deck.
A digital-to-digital recording is possible from an external LD
(DVD) player, satellite tuner, DAT, etc. connected to the DIGITAL IN (OPTICAL) terminal on the rear of the main unit to the built-in MD recorder.
