PM5D/PM5D-RH V2 / DSP5D Owner’s Manual

5

•Avoid setting all equalizer controls and faders to their maximum. Depending on
the condition of the connected devices, doing so may cause feedback and may
damage the speakers.
•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.
•Do not block the vents. This device has ventilation holes at the front and rear to
prevent the internal temperature from becoming too high. In particular, do not
place the device on its side or upside down. Inadequate ventilation can result in
overheating, possibly causing damage to the device(s), or even fire.
• Do not use the device in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile
phone, or other electric devices. Doing so may result in noise, both in the device
itself and in the TV or radio next to it.
•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.
• When turning on the AC power in your audio system, always turn on the power
amplifier LAST, to avoid speaker damage. When turning the power off, the power
amplifier should be turned off FIRST for the same reason.
• Do not insert your fingers or hands in any gaps or openings on the device
(vents, etc.).
•Avoid inserting or dropping foreign objects (paper, plastic, metal, etc.) into any
gaps or openings on the device (vents, 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.
•(PM5D only) Do not apply oil, grease, or contact cleaner to the faders. Doing so
may cause problems with electrical contact or fader motion.
•Do not use the headphones 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 rest your weight on the device or place heavy objects on it, and avoid use
excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
•This device has a built-in backup battery. When you unplug the power cord from
the AC outlet, the internal data of current scene is retained. However, if the
backup battery fully discharges, this data will be lost. When the backup battery
is running low in the system using PM5D or PM5D/DSP5D Editor, each LCD
display indicates “Low Battery!” during operation or “NO BATTERY!” when
starting up the system (the BATTERY field also indicates “LOW” or “NO
BATTERY” in the PREFERENCE2 screen).
When using only the DSP5D, the message such as “Low Battery!” cannot be
displayed because the DSP5D itself has no LCD display. When the DSP5D is
cascade-connected to the PM5D or online with the DSP5D Editor, these
messages will be displayed. In this case, have qualified Yamaha service
personnel replace the backup battery.
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.
