CAUTION: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT

1To assure the finest performance, please read this manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.

2Install this unit in a cool, dry, clean place – away from windows, heat sources, sources of excessive vibration, dust, moisture and cold. Avoid sources of humming (transformers, motors). To prevent fire or electrical shock, do not expose the unit to rain or water.

3Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the set, contact your dealer.

4Do not use force on switches, controls or connection wires. When moving the unit, first disconnect the power plug and the wires connected to other equipment. Never pull the wires themselves.

5The openings on the cabinet assure proper ventilation of the unit. If these openings are obstructed, the temperature inside the cabinet will rise rapidly and eventually damage the circuits. Therefore, avoid placing objects against these openings and do not install the unit where the flow of air through the ventilation openings could be impeded.

6Always set the VOLUME control to “–∞” before starting the audio source play. Increase the volume gradually to an appropriate level after playback has been started.

7Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents; this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.

8Be sure to read the “TROUBLESHOOTING” section regarding common operating errors before concluding that the unit is faulty.

9When not planning to use this unit for long periods of time (ie., vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the wall outlet.

10To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC power plug and disconnect the antenna cable when there is an electrical storm.

11Grounding or polarization – Precautions should be taken so that the grounding or polarization of an appliance is not defeated.

12AC outlet

Do not connect audio equipment to the AC outlet on the rear panel if that equipment requires more power than the outlet is rated to provide.

We Want You Listening For A Lifetime (U.S.A.)

YAMAHA and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group want you to get the most out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level. One that lets the sound come through loud and clear without annoying blaring or distortion – and, most importantly, without affecting your sensitive hearing. Since hearing damage from loud sounds is

often undetectable until it is too late, YAMAHA and the Electronic Industries Association’s Consumer Electronics Group recommend you to avoid prolonged exposure from excessive volume levels.
