Thank you for purchasing Yamaha’s YST-MS30 Powered Multimedia Speakers. Advanced Yamaha Active Servo Technology offers exceptionally high performance, allowing these compact speakers to produce a rich bass sound.

Cautions

Please read the following operating precautions before use:

•When you disconnect the AC adapter from the AC receptacle, hold the plug, not the cord.

•If you plan not to use the YST-MS30s for a while, disconnect the AC adapter from the AC receptacle.

•Always disconnect the AC adapter from the AC receptacle before making any connections.

•The YST-MS30s do not contain any user service- able parts. Refer all servicing to your Yamaha dealer.

•Never open the cabinet. If a foreign object drops into the set, contact your dealer, and do not use the YST-MS30s. Otherwise, you may cause a fire.

•Do not expose the YST-MS30s to temperature extremes, direct sunlight, excessive dust, humidity, or vibration.

•Position the YST-MS30s on a level, stable surface. Do not drop the YST-MS30s, apply excessive force to their controls, or put heavy items on top of them.

•Do not place small metal objects on the speakers. Otherwise, the object may fall, possibly causing an injury.

•Since this unit has a built-in power amplifier, heat will radiate from the rear panel. Therefore, place the unit apart from the walls, allowing a space of at least 20 cm (7-7/8") above, behind and on the both sides of the unit. Also, do not position with the rear panel facing down on the floor or other surface. (Subwoofer only)

•Do not obstruct the port with your hand or a foreign object.

•To protect the YST-MS30 speakers, avoid micro- phone feedback, continuous and excessive output from electronic musical instruments, and excessive signal distortion.

•If the YST-MS30s are located close to fluorescent or neon lights, a slight hum may be heard. In this case, relocate the YST-MS30s away from the light.

•Although the YST-MS30 speakers are magnetically shielded, keep floppy disks and tapes away from them.

•The YST-MS30s may cause picture distortion when located close to a television or computer monitor. In this case, move them away a short distance.

•Avoid sources of hum (transformers, motors). To prevent fire or electrical shock, do not expose to rain and water.

•Do not use force on switches, knobs, or cables. When you move the YST-MS30, first turn off the power to the speakers, then disconnect the AC adapter from the AC receptacle and the cables from the connected devices.

•Always turn the volume control counterclockwise to the minimum before starting to play the audio source: increase the volume gradually to an appro- priate level after the playback has started.

Controls & Connectors

Refer to the illustrations on page 1.

1TO RIGHT SPEAKER

Connect the 8-pin cable from the right satellite speaker to this connector.

2INPUT 1/2

You can input two audio sources to the speaker system from these input jacks. For example, you can connect the output of a CD-ROM player and a personal computer here. The two audio sources are mixed together by the speaker system.

A typical (recommended) setting is the position between one o’clock and two o’clock.

Rotating the control clockwise will increase the volume level, and rotating the control counter- clockwise will decrease the level.

5DC connector

Connect the included AC adapter to this connector.

Press the (standby/on) button on the right satel- lite speaker to turn the power on or standby.

6VOLUME control

Allows you to adjust the volume level of the entire speaker system.

Rotating the control clockwise will increase the volume level, and rotating the control counter- clockwise will decrease the level.

7 (standby/on) button/indicator

Press this button to turn on the power to the speaker system. Its indicator lights up. Press the button again to turn the speaker system to standby mode.

Before turning the power on or standby, make sure that the VOLUME control setting is lowered. A small electrical current flows through the speaker system even if the standby/on switch is turned off.
