PRECAUTIONS
l
Avoid placing your WX7 in direct sunlight or close to a
source of heat. Also, avoid locations where the instrument
is likely to be subjected to vibration, excessive dust, cold
or moisture. All of these conditions could have a detri-
mental effect on both the mechanisms and the circuitry
incorporated into the WX7.
l
Avoid applying excessive force to the switches and keys.
Use the mouthpiece and keys with as much care as you
would with any other top quality wind instrument. Also
avoid dropping the instrument or otherwise subjecting it
to impact. While the internal circuitry is of reliable in-
tegrated circuit design, the WX7 should be treated with
care.
l
When not in use, even for
short
periods of time, always
keep the WX7 in the supplied carrying case.
l
When unplugging cords (MIDI, audio, power, etc.) from
the WX7, never unplug by pulling on the cords; this can
result in damage to the WX7 or the cords.
All computer circuitry, including that of the WX7, is
sensitive to power surges or voltage spikes, such as those
caused by lightning. For this reason, the MIDI/Power
Pack of the WX7 should be turned off and unplugged from
the wall socket (if using it with AC power rather than the
internal batteries) in the event of an electrical storm.
Computer circuitry is also sensitive to electromagnetic
radiation, such as is generated by television sets. Use your
WX7 at a suitable distance from such equipment to avoid
malfunctions in the WX7 or any other connected equip-
ment.
l
When making connections, carefully follow the in-
structions detailed in the SETTING UP section (both in
the WX7 manual and that of the MIDI device which it
is controlling) so as to avoid damage to any of your
equipment.
l
When cleaning the WX7, use a slightly damp cloth, with
a mild detergent if necessary, and dry with the soft cloth
provided. Never use solvents (such as benzine or thinner)
since they can melt or discolor the finish. Also, never use
aerosol sprays near the WX7 as they can get into the
circuitry and prevent accurate transmission of data
l
Your WX7 and the MIDI/Power Pack contain no user
serviceable parts. Opening them or tampering with them
can lead to electrical shock as well as damage. Refer all
servicing to qualified Yamaha personnel.
