Your Silent Violin will give you years of reliable service if you follow the simple rules given below:

Location

Do not expose it to the following conditions to avoid deformation, discoloration, or more seri-

ous damage.

Direct sunlight (e.g. near a window).

High temperatures (e.g. near a heat source, out- side, or in a car during the daytime).

Excessive humidity.

Excessive dust.

Strong vibration.

Power Supply

Turn the power switch OFF when not in use.

If you use an AC power adaptor, unplug the adap- tor from the AC outlet if not to be used for an extended period of time.

Unplug the AC power adaptor during electric storms.

Avoid plugging the AC power adaptor into the same AC outlet as appliances with high power consump- tion, such as electric heaters or ovens. Also avoid using multi-plug adaptors since these can result in reduced sound quality and possibly damage.

Turn Power OFF When Making Connections

To avoid damage to the Silent Violin and other devices to which it is connected (a sound system, for example), turn the power switches of all related devices OFF prior to connecting or disconnecting audio cables.

Handling and Transport

Never apply excessive force to the controls, con- nectors or other parts.

Always unplug cables by gripping the plug firmly, not by pulling on the cable.

Disconnect all cables before moving the unit.

Physical shocks caused by dropping, bumping, or placing heavy objects on the unit can result in scratches and more serious damage.

Cleaning

Clean the cabinet and panel with a dry soft cloth.

A slightly damp cloth may be used to remove stubborn grime and dirt.

Never use cleaners such as alcohol or thinner.

Avoid placing vinyl objects on top of the unit (vinyl can stick to and discolor the surface).

Electrical Interference

This unit contains electric circuitry and may cause interference if placed too close to radio or television receivers. If this occurs, move it further away from the affected equipment.

YAMAHA is not responsible for damage caused by improper handling or operation.
