PRECAUTIONS

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE PROCEEDING

* Please keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.

WARNING

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, ﬁre or other hazards. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

ENGLISH

Power supply/Power cord

• Only use the voltage speciﬁed as correct for the device. The required voltage is printed on the name plate of the device.

• Use only the included power cord.

• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as heaters or radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise damage the cord, place heavy objects on it, or place it in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything over it.

Do not open

• Do not open the device or attempt to disassemble the internal parts or modify them in any way. The device contains no user-serviceable parts. If it should appear to be malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it inspected by qualiﬁed Yamaha service personnel.

Water warning

• Do not expose the device to rain, use it near water or in damp or wet conditions, or place containers on it containing liquids which might spill into any openings.

• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.

If you notice any abnormality

• If the power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged, or if there is a sudden loss of sound during use of the device, or if any unusual smells or smoke should appear to be caused by it, immediately turn off the power switch, disconnect the electric plug from the outlet, and have the device inspected by qualiﬁed Yamaha service personnel.

• If this device should be dropped or damaged, immediately turn off the power switch, disconnect the electric plug from the outlet, and have the device inspected by qualiﬁed Yamaha service personnel.

CAUTION

Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the device or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:

Power supply/Power cord

• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the device is not to be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.

• When removing the electric plug from the device or an outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.

Location

• If you use the metal socket on the subwoofer for mounting of a satellite speaker, use a pole no longer than 90cm (35.4") with an outer diameter of 35mm (1-3/8"). Use of any other size pole may cause the device to fall, and result in injury or damage to the internal components.

• When transporting or moving the device, always use two or more people. Attempting to lift the device by yourself may damage your back, result in other injury, or cause damage to the device itself.

• Before moving the device, remove all connected cables.

• Do not use the device in a conﬁned, poorly-ventilated location. If this device is to be used in a small space other than an EIA-standard rack, make sure that here is adequate space between the device and surrounding walls or

other devices: at least 30cm at the sides, 30cm behind and 30cm above. Inadequate ventilation can result in overheating, possibly causing damage to the device(s), or even ﬁre.

• Do not use the speaker’s handles for suspended installation. Doing so can result in damage or injury.

• Do not expose the device to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent the possibility of panel disﬁguration or damage to the internal components.

• Do not place the device in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over.

Connections

• Before connecting the device to other devices, turn off the power for all devices. Before turning the power on or off for all devices, set all volume levels to minimum.

(5)-2

Handling caution

• When turning on the AC power in your audio system, always turn on the device LAST, to avoid speaker damage. When turning the power off, the device should be turned off FIRST for the same reason.

• Do not insert your ﬁngers or hands in any gaps or openings on the device

ENGLISH

(ports, etc.).

•Avoid inserting or dropping foreign objects (paper, plastic, metal, etc.) into any gaps or openings on the device (ports, etc.) If this happens, turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the device inspected by qualiﬁed Yamaha service personnel.

• Do not use the device for a long period of time at a high or uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.

• Do not operate the device if the sound is distorting. Prolonged use in this condition could cause overheating and result in ﬁre.

• Do not rest your weight on the device or place heavy objects on it, and avoid use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.

XLR-type connectors are wired as follows (IEC60268 standard): pin 1: ground, pin 2: hot (+), and pin 3: cold (-).

Interference From Cell Phones

Using a cell phone near the speaker system can induce noise. If this occurs, move the cell phone further away from the speaker system.

Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modiﬁcations to the device.

Always turn the power off when the device is not in use.

The performance of components with moving contacts, such as switches, volume controls, and connectors, deteriorates over time. Consult qualiﬁed Yamaha service personnel about replacing defective components.
