Your Silent Electric Cello will give you years of reliable service if you follow the simple

rules given below:

 

Location

Do not expose it to the following conditions to avoid deformation, discoloration, or more serious dam-
age.

• Direct sunlight (e.g. near a window).
• High temperatures (e.g. near a heat source, outside, or in a car during the daytime).
• Excessive humidity.
• Excessive dust.
• Strong vibrations.

 

Power Supply

• Turn the power switch OFF when not in use.
• If you use an AC power adaptor, unplug the adaptor from the AC outlet if not to be used for an

extended period of time.

• Unplug the AC power adaptor during electric storms.
• Avoid plugging the AC power adaptor into the same AC outlet as appliances with high power con-

sumption, such as electric heaters or ovens. Also avoid using multi-plug adaptors since these can
result in reduced sound quality and possible damage.

 

Turn Power OFF When Making Connections

• To avoid damage to the Silent Electric Cello and other devices to which it is connected (a sound

system, for example), turn the power switches of all related devices OFF prior to connecting or
disconnecting audio cables.

 

Handling and Transport

• Never apply excessive force to the controls, connectors or other parts.
• Always unplug cables by gripping the plug firmly, not by pulling on the cable.
• Disconnect all cables before moving the unit.
• Physical shocks caused by dropping, bumping, or placing heavy objects on the unit can result in

scratches and more serious damage.

 

Cleaning

• Clean the body and control panel with a dry soft cloth.
• A slightly damp cloth may be used to remove stubborn grime and dirt.
• Never use cleaners such as alcohol or thinner.

 

Electrical Interference

• This unit contains digital circuitry and may cause interference if placed too close to radio or televi-

sion receivers. If this occurs, move it further away from the affected equipment.

YAMAHA is not responsible for damage caused by improper handling or operation.
