Cautions
Please read the following operating precautions before
use:
• When disconnecting the AC power cord from an AC
receptacle, hold and pull the plug, not the power cord.
• If theYST-MSW5 is not going to be used for a while,
disconnect the AC power cord from the AC receptacle.
• Always disconnect theAC power cord from theAC
receptacle before making any connections.
• TheYST-MSW5 does not contain any user serviceable
parts. Refer all servicing to yourYamaha dealer.
•
Never open the cabinet. If a foreign object drops into
the set, contact your dealer, and do not use the
YST-MSW5. Otherwise, you may cause a fire.
• Do not expose theYST-MSW5 to temperature extremes,
direct sunlight, excessive dust, humidity, or vibration.
• Position theYST-MSW5 on a level, stable surface. Do
not drop theYST-MSW5, apply excessive force to
their controls, or put heavy items on top of them.
• 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 10 cm
(3-15/16") 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.
• Do not obstruct the port with your hand or a foreign
object.
• To protect theYST-MSW5 speaker, avoid microphone
feedback, continuous and excessive output from elec-
tronic musical instruments, and excessive signal dis-
tortion.
• If theYST-MSW5 is located close to fluorescent or
neon lights, a slight hum may be heard. In this case,
relocate theYST-MSW5 away from the light.
• Although theYST-MSW5 speaker is magnetically
shielded, keep floppy disks and tapes away from them.
• TheYST-MSW5 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 pre-
vent fire or electrical shock, do not expose to rain and
water.
• Do not use force on switches, knobs or cords. When
moving theYST-MSW5, first turn theYST-MSW5 off.
• Always turn the volume control counterclockwise
before starting to play the audio source: increase the
volume gradually to an appropriate level after the play-
back has started.
