1To ensure the finest performance, please read this manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future reference.
2Install your unit in a cool, dry, clean place – away from windows, heat sources, and too much vibration, dust, moisture or cold. Avoid sources of hum (transformers, motors). To prevent fire or electrical shock, do not expose to rain and water.
3Do not operate the unit
4Never open the cabinet. If a foreign object drops into the set, contact your dealer.
5Do not use force on switches, knobs or cords. When moving the set, first turn the unit off. Then gently disconnect the power plug and the cords connecting to other equipment. Never pull the cord itself.
6Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents; this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
7Always set the volume control to “– ∞” before starting the audio source play: increase the volume gradually to an appropriate level after the play is started.
8To prevent lightning damage, pull out the power cord and remove the antenna cable during an electrical storm.
9Be sure to read the “Troubleshooting” section on common operating errors before concluding that your unit is faulty.
10Do not connect audio equipment to the AC outlets on the rear panel if that equipment requires more power than the outlets are rated to provide.
11When not planning to use this unit for long periods of time (ie., vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power plug from the wall outlet.
The apparatus is not disconnected from the AC power source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet, even if the apparatus itself is turned off.
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.
