Turn Power OFF When Making Connections

Your Silent Guitar will give you years of reliable service if you follow the simple rules given below:

■Location

Do not expose it to the following conditions to avoid deformation, discoloration, or more serious dam- age.

•Direct sunlight (e.g. near a window).

•High temperatures (e.g. near a heat source, outside, or in a car during the daytime).

•Excessive humidity.

•Excessive dust.

•Strong vibrations.

■Power Supply

•Turn the power switch OFF when not in use.

•If you use an AC power adaptor, unplug the adaptor from the AC outlet if not to be used for an extended period of time.

•If you use an AC power adaptor, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily accessible.

•If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power switch and unplug the adaptor from the outlet.

•This product is not disconnected from the AC power source as long as the adaptor is connected to the outlet, even if the power switch is turned off.

•Unplug the AC power adaptor during electric storms.

•Avoid plugging the AC power adaptor into the same AC outlet as appliances with high power con- sumption, such as electric heaters or ovens. Also avoid using multi-plug adaptors since these can result in reduced sound quality and possible damage.

■Turn Power OFF When Making Connections

•To avoid damage to the Silent Guitar and other devices to which it is connected (a sound system, for example), turn the power switches of all related devices OFF prior to connecting or disconnect- ing audio cables.

■Handling and Transport

•Never apply excessive force to the controls, connectors or other parts.

•Always unplug cables by gripping the plug firmly, not by pulling on the cable.

•Disconnect all cables before moving the unit.

•Physical shocks caused by dropping, bumping, or placing heavy objects on the unit can result in scratches and more serious damage.

■Cleaning

•Clean the guitar body with a dry soft cloth.

•A slightly damp cloth may be used to remove stubborn grime and dirt.

•Never use cleaners such as alcohol or thinner.

■Electrical Interference

•This unit contains electric circuitry and may cause interference if placed too close to radio or televi- sion receivers. If this occurs, move it further away from the affected equipment.

YAMAHA is not responsible for damage caused by improper handling or operation.
