Cautions

Please read the following operating precautions before use:
• When you disconnect the AC adaptor from the AC outlet, hold the plug, not the cord.
• If you plan not to use the YST-M45Ds for a while, disconnect the AC adaptor from the AC outlet.
• Always disconnect the AC adaptor from the AC outlet before making any connections.
• The YST-M45Ds do not contain any user service­able parts. Refer all servicing to your Yamaha dealer.
Never open the cabinet. If a foreign object drops
into the set, contact your dealer, and do not use the YST-M45Ds. Otherwise, you may cause a fire.
• Do not expose the YST-M45Ds to temperature extremes, direct sunlight, excessive dust, humidity, or vibration.
• Position the YST-M45Ds on a le vel, stable surface. Do not drop the YST-M45Ds, apply excessive force to their controls, or put heavy items on top of them.
• Do not place small metal objects on the speakers. Otherwise, the object may fall, possibly causing an injury.
• To protect the YST-M45D speakers, avoid micro­phone feedback, continuous and excessive output from electronic musical instruments, and excessive signal distortion.
• If the YST-M45Ds are located close to fluorescent or neon lights, a slight hum may be heard. In this case, relocate the YST-M45Ds away from the light.
• Although the YST-M45D speakers are magneti­cally shielded, keep floppy disks and tapes away from them.
• The YST-M45Ds 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-M45D, first turn off the power to the speakers, then disconnect the AC adaptor from the A C 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.
• Though this speaker is a magnetically shielded type, there may be some influence on the monitor picture depending on the type of monitor or the placement of the speaker. In such a case, place the speaker further apart from the monitor until there is no influence on the monitor picture.
• When placing the provided AC adaptor on the desk, etc., be sure to fix the adaptor on the desk, etc. to prevent it from falling. If the adaptor falls, it may cause personal injury or damage to the adap­tor and/or other equipment.
Note for headphone: When you use headphones, make sure that they have a
cable of less than 3m. (UK and Europe models)
