1. Safety Information
WARNING
Failure to observe the following warnings may lead to fatality or serious injury from fire or elec-
tric shock.
•
Do not attempt to disassemble or modify boards or SIMMs. Do not apply excessive force to
connectors or other components. (Damage to components may lead to shock, fire hazard, or
equipment failure.)
• Be sure to disconnect the power cable from the SU700 before carrying out installation work
(to eliminate shock hazard).
CAUTION
Failure to observe the following precautions may lead to personal injury, or may result in damage
to equipment or other property.
•
Be sure to disconnect all devices from the SU700 before beginning work.
• Be careful to avoid touching the metal connector pins on expansion boards and SIMMs. (Pins
are sharp and may cause hand cuts.)
• Boards and SIMMs are electrostatic-sensitive. Before handling these components, you should
briefly touch the SU700’s metal casing with your hand to drain static charge from your body.
• Take care to avoid dropping screws into the SU700 during work. If a screw falls in, be sure to
remove it before reassembling and powering up the SU700. Starting the SU700 with a loose
screw inside may lead to improper operation or to equipment failure.
NOTE:
Improper handling of an expansion board or SIMM may void the warranties for both the
option and the SU700 itself. Yamaha assumes no responsibility for data loss, equipment
damage, or injury caused by inappropriate handling or usage.
