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

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

To prevent lightning damage, disconnect the AC power
plug when there is an electric storm.

Since this unit has a built-in power amplifier, heat will
radiate from the rear panel. Place the unit apart from the
walls, allowing enough spaces above, behind and on
both sides of the unit to prevent fire or damage.
Furthermore, do not position with the rear panel facing
down on the floor or other surfaces.

For U.K., Europe and China models only

>

Be sure to allow spaces of at least 20 cm above, behind
and on both sides of the unit.

Do not cover the rear panel of this unit with a
newspaper, a tablecloth, a curtain, etc. in order not to
obstruct heat radiation. If the temperature inside the unit
rises, it may cause fire, damage to the unit and/or
personal injury.

Do not place the following objects on this unit:
Glass, china, etc.

If glass etc. falls by vibrations and breaks, it may cause
personal injury.

A burning candle etc.

If the candle falls by vibrations, it may cause fire and
personal injury.

A vessel with water in it

If the vessel falls by vibrations and water spills, it may
cause damage to the unit, and/or you may get an
electric shock.

Super-bass frequencies reproduced by this unit may
cause a turntable to generate a howling sound. In such a
case, move this unit away from the turntable.

If you hear distorted noise (i.e., unnatural, intermittent
“rapping” or “hammering” sounds) coming from this unit,
reduce the volume level. Extremely loud playing of a
movie soundtrack’s low frequency, bass-heavy sounds or
similarly loud popular music passages can damage this
speaker system.

Vibration generated by super-bass frequencies may
distort images on a TV. In such a case, move this unit
away from the TV set.

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

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

Secure placement or installation is the owner’s
responsibility.
YAMAHA shall not be liable for any accident caused
by improper placement or installation of speakers.
