Keep the unit away from locations where it is likely to be exposed to high temperatures or humidity — such as near radiators, stoves, etc. Also avoid locations which are subject to excessive dust accumulation or vibration which could cause mechanical damage. 2.Ventilation Allow a distance of 10cm between the unit and the wall so that heat generated from the unit will be released effectively. Also, allow enough space between the unit and other devices. If you mount the unit in an audio rack, keep a space of 10cm on the top panel, and a space of 1cm to the side panel. Remove the rear panel of the rack or open a vent hole. If heat release is inadequate, the unit will retain heat inside the unit, which may cause a fire. 3.Avoid physical shocks. Strong physical shocks to the unit can cause damage. Handle it with care. 4.Do not open the case or attempt repairs or modifica- tions yourself. This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Refer all maintenance to qualified Yamaha service personnel. Opening the case and/or tampering with the internal circuitry will void the warranty. 5.Make sure power is off before making or removing connections. Always turn the power OFF prior to connecting or disconnecting cables. This is important to prevent dam- age to the unit itself as well as other connected equip- ment. 6.Handle cables carefully. Always plug and unplug cables — including the AC cord — by gripping the connector, not the cord. 7.Clean with a soft dry cloth. Never use solvents such as benzine or thinner to clean the unit. Wipe clean with a soft, dry cloth. 8... »
