For U.K. customers

 

If the socket outlets in the home are not suitable for the 
plug supplied with this appliance, it should be cut off and 
an appropriate 3 pin plug fitted. For details, refer to the 
following instructions.

 

Note:

 

 The plug severed from the mains lead must be 

destroyed, as a plug with bared flexible cord is hazardous 
if engaged in a live socket outlet.

 

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR U.K. MODEL

 

We Want You Listening for a Lifetime

 

Yamaha and the Electronic Industries Association’s Con-
sumer Electronics Group want you to get the most enjoy-
ment out of your equipment by playing it at a safe level 
— a level that lets the sound come through loud and 
clear without annoying blaring or distortion — and, most 
importantly, without damaging your sensitive hearing.

Since hearing damage from loud 
sounds is often undetectable until it is 
too late, Yamaha and the Electronic 
Industries Association’s Consumer 
Electronics Group recommend that you 
avoid prolonged exposure to excessive 
volume levels.
