2Insert the 2supplied batteries (AAA, R03, UM4), observing
the polarity markings
(+ and -) on the inside of the battery
compartment.
3Snap the battery compartment cover back into place.
Notes
• If the effective operation distance of the remote control decreases considerably, replace the batteries with two new ones as soon as
possible.
•Do not use
an old battery together with new one.
•Do not use different types
of batteries (for example, alkaline and manganese) together. Their performance will vary, even if they are
similar in shape.
•
If the batteries run out, immediately remove them from the remote control to prevent an explosion or acid leak.

PLACING THIS SYSTEM
To enjoy quality sound thoroughly, you need to place this system in the appropriate positions, and install the components
correctly. After deciding the layout, follow the procedure below to install this system.
SUbwooferlsystem control
Center system (YAS-71SPX)
(YAS·71CU) f
\Q 'Center system (YAS-71 CU)
Place the center system beneath aTV or under the TV so that the
center system and your TV align vertically. Make sure that the
center system
is placed in parallel with the wall.
Main roles: Produces front channel (stereo) sounds. Also
produces virtual centerchannel sounds (dialogue. etc.) and virtual
surround channel sounds effectively using the Yamaha front
surround system.
Subwooferlsystem control (YAS-71 SPX)
Place the subwoofer near the center system and turn it slightly
toward the center
of the room to reduce wall reflections.
Main roles: Produces low frequency (LFE) sounds.
Notes
•This system is shielded against magnetic fields. However, if the picture on your TV screen becomes blurred or distorted, we
recommend moving the system away from your TV.
•
Low frequency sound produced by the subwoofer/system control may be heard differently depending on the listening position and
subwoofer location. To enjoy desired sounds, try changing the location
of the subwoofer.
•Depending on your installation environment, connections to external components can be done before installing this system.
We
recommend that you temporarily place and arrange all components in order to decide which procedure is best done first.
