Thank you for purchasing a Yamaha MS101III Monitor Speaker. The MS101III employs a 4 inch full-range speaker in a
compact bass-reflex style cabinet. Its faithful sound reproduction capabilities make it ideal for home recording and
personal practice. Since a magnetic field-cancelling speaker is used, the MS101III can be placed next to a television or
video monitor without causing interference, making it the perfect choice for Audio/Video system applications.

* 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:
•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.
• Be sure to connect to an appropriate outlet with a protective grounding
connection. Improper grounding can result in electrical shock.
• 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.
•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 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:
• 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.
•Before moving the device, remove all connected cables.
•When setting up the device, 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 disconnect the plug from the outlet.
• Do not use the device in a confined, poorly-ventilated location. Make sure
that there is adequate space between the device and surrounding walls or
other devices: at least 10 cm at the sides, 10 cm behind and 20 cm above.
Inadequate ventilation can result in overheating, possibly causing damage to
the device(s), or even fire.
•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.
•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.
