• Placing the speaker on the same shelf or rack as the turntable

can result in acoustical feedback.

• Never put a hand or a foreign object into the port located on the

rear of the speaker, as this might cause personal injury and/or

damage to the speaker.

• When moving the speaker, do not hold the port, as it might

cause personal injury and/or damage to the speaker.

• Any time you notice distortion, reduce the volume control on

your amplifier. Never allow your amplifier to be driven into

“clipping.” Otherwise the speaker may be damaged.

• When using an amplifier with a rated output power higher than

the nominal input power of the speaker, care should be taken

never to exceed the speaker’s maximum input.

• Do not attempt to clean the speaker with chemical solvents, as

this might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.

• Do not attempt to modify or repair the speaker. Contact

qualified YAMAHA service personnel when any service is

needed. The cabinet should never be opened for any reasons.

• Secure placement and installation is the owner’s

responsibility. YAMAHA shall not be liable for any

accident caused by improper placement or installation of

speakers.
