Yamaha NS-120 PRECAUTIONS, PRECAUTIONS WHEN POSITIONING THE SPEAKERS, Thank you for selecting this YAMAHA NS-120speaker system

Thank you for selecting this YAMAHA NS-120 speaker system.

PRECAUTIONS

Read these precautions carefully before using your speaker.

●Any time you note distortion, reduce the volume control on your amplifier to a lower setting. Never allow your amplifier to be driven into “clipping”. Otherwise the speaker may be damaged.

●When using an amplifier with a rated output power higher than the nominal input power of the speaker, care should be taken never to exceed the speaker’s maximum input.

●Do not attempt to clean the speaker with chemical solvents as this might damage the finish. To clean, wipe with a dry, soft cloth.

●To prevent the enclosure from warping or discoloring, do not place the speaker where it will be exposed to direct sunlight or excessive humidity.

●Do not place the speaker where it is liable to be knocked over or struck by falling objects. Stable placement will also ensure better sound performance.

●Secure placement or installation is the owner’s responsibility. YAMAHA shall not be liable for any accident caused by improper placement or installation of the speaker.

PRECAUTIONS WHEN POSITIONING THE SPEAKERS

The speaker is constructed with the majority of the weight located in its upper portion, and is thus susceptible to falling over if proper care is not taken to insure its stability. If the speaker falls over, it may damage the speaker or be the cause of injury (or even death) to persons and/or damage to personal property.

For safe and proper use of the speaker:

•Position the speaker in a location that is solid, level, smooth, and low (with respect to the floor).

•Do not push or apply pressure to the side of the speaker when moving, or lean objects against the side of the speaker.

•Do not sit on or set objects on top of the speaker.

Vibrations or jolts associated with earthquakes and other phenomena or activities may cause the speaker to fall over. For safety reasons, using commercially available products that increase stability in the speaker is recommended (metal fittings or chains, etc.).

Use the stands included with the speakers to increase stability:

●Stands

Be sure to use the stands regardless of where the speakers are positioned. Attaching the stands included with the speakers reinforces the base of the speaker not to fall over. Please be cautioned that even though the stands are connected, this does not guarantee that the speakers will not fall over.
