Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of serious injury or even 
death from electrical shock, short-circuiting, damages, fire, or other hazards. These precautions 
include, but are not limited to, the following:

Do not open the device or attempt to disassemble or modify it.
Otherwise, there is an increased risk of electrical shock or fire.  The device contains no user-
serviceable parts.  If it appears to be malfunctioning, have it inspected by qualified service personnel.

Do not look inside the device.
If you expose your eyes to the laser inside the device, you risk damage to or loss of your vision.

Do not insert fingers or foreign objects into the device.
Otherwise, there is an increased risk of personal injury, electrical shock, damage to the device, or 
fire.  Please take particular care if small children are present.

Do not expose the device to rain or use it near water or in damp or wet conditions. Do not place 
containers on it that contain liquids which might spill into any openings.
Otherwise, there is an increased risk of electrical shock, fire, or personal injury.

Otherwise, there is an increased risk of personal injury, electrical shock, fire, or damage to the unit.  
Follow the correct procedure when setting up the device.

If unusual smells, sounds, or smoke emanate from the device, or if liquids enter the device, switch 
the computer off immediately and unplug it from the power outlet.
Otherwise, there is an increased risk of electrical shock, fire, or damage to the device. Return the 
device immediately to the store where it was purchased, or alternatively, to the nearest Yamaha 
dealer (listed at the back of this manual).

Make sure the computer is electrically grounded.
Otherwise, there is an increased risk of electrical shock.

When opening up the computer, always unplug the computer from the electrical outlet.  Do not 
touch the plug with wet hands.
Otherwise, there is an increased risk of electrical shock.
