CONSUMER PRECAUTIONS

Read these precautions carefully before installing your NS-IW760 speaker.

z

  Before you begin installation, read this owner’s manual completely and consult your local building codes. If you 

have any doubt, contact your dealer or a qualified audio/video installer. 

z

  YAMAHA recommends installing the speaker only in two-by-four wood frame or similar construction. The 

instructions provided in this owner’s manual are intended specifically for this type of wall construction. 

z

  When installing your NS-IW760 in-wall speaker, be aware of the product weight (See specification page) and 

the sturdiness of the material into which you are installing the speaker. 

z

  Be aware of any concealed studs, electrical wiring or plumbing in the wall or ceiling into which you are 

installing the speakers. If you are not sure of a safe way to install these speakers, consult a professional 
installer or a building contractor.

z

  Never touch the woofer or tweeter units with your hands or expose them to excessive physical shock. If they 

are dented or bent, the sound will be distorted.

z

  Lower the power amplifier/receiver volume control before changing input sources. Never change input sources 

(for example, FM to CD) at high listening levels. Always turn the receiver/amplifier unit off when installing or 
removing any cables.

z

  Anytime you note distortion, reduce the volume control on your power amplifier/receiver to a lower setting. 

Never allow your power amplifier to be driven into  “clipping”.

z

  Secure placement or installation is the owner’s responsibility. YAMAHA shall not be liable for any accident 

caused by improper placement or installation of speakers.

WARNING:

Installation shall be in accordance with the applicable section of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, 
and/or the National Fire Alarm Code, ANSI/NFPA 72, as applicable. The wiring method and compartment shall 
be such as not to interfere with the operation of the speaker.
