PRECAUTIONS
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
BEFORE PROCEEDING
Please keep this manual in a safe place for
future reference.
WARNING
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:
If you notice any abnormality
• If any of the following problems occur, immediately turn off the
power switch and disconnect the electric plug from the outlet.
- The power cord or plug becomes frayed or damaged.
- Unusual smells or smoke are emitted.
- Some object, or water has been dropped into the product.
- There is a sudden loss of sound during use of the product.
- Cracks or other visible damage appear on the product.
Then have the product inspected or repaired by qualified
Yamaha service personnel.
Power supply/AC adaptor
• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as
heaters or radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise
damage the cord, place heavy objects on it, or place it in a
position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything
over it.
• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the product. The
required voltage is printed on the name plate of the product.
• Use the specified adaptor only. Using the wrong adaptor can
result in damage to the product or overheating.
• Use only the supplied power cord.
If you intend to use the product in an area other than in the
one you purchased, the included power cord may not be
compatible. Please check with your Yamaha dealer.
• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or
dust which may have accumulated on it.
• Make sure to fully insert the electric plug to prevent electric
shocks or fire.
• When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you
are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction
occurs, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect
the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is turned
off, as long as the power cord is not unplugged from the wall
AC outlet, the product will not be disconnected from the
power source.
• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the product is
not to be used for extended periods of time.
• Do not touch the product or the electric plug during an
electrical storm.
• Be sure to connect to an appropriate outlet with a protective
grounding connection. Improper grounding can result in
electrical shock, fire, or damage.
Do not open
• This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not
attempt to disassemble the internal parts or modify them in
any way.
Water warning/Fire warning
• Do not expose the product to rain, use it near water or in
damp or wet conditions, or place on it any containers (such as
vases, bottles or glasses) containing liquids which might spill
into any openings.
• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
• Do not place any burning items or open flames near the
product, since they may cause a fire.
Hearing loss
• Before connecting the product to other devices, turn off the
power for all devices. Also, before turning the power of all
devices on or off, make sure that all volume levels are set to
the minimum. Failing to do so may result in hearing loss,
electric shock, or device damage.
• When turning on the AC power in your audio system, always
turn on the power amplifier LAST, to avoid hearing loss and
speaker damage. When turning the power off, the power
amplifier should be turned off FIRST for the same reason.
• Do not use headphones for a long period of time at a high or
uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent
hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in
the ears, consult a physician.
CAUTION
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid
the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or
damage to the product or other property. These
precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/AC adaptor
• Do not cover or wrap the AC adaptor with a cloth or blanket.
• When removing the electric plug from the product or an outlet,
always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the
cord can damage it.
Location and connection
• Do not place the product in an unstable position where it
might accidentally fall over and cause injuries.
• Do not block the vents. This product has ventilation holes at
the top/rear/sides/bottom to prevent the internal temperature
from becoming too high. In particular, do not place the
product on its side or upside down. Inadequate ventilation
can result in overheating, possibly causing damage to the
product(s), or even fire.
• When attempting to dissipate heat on the product, when
installing it:
- Do not cover it with any cloth.
- Do not install it on a carpet or rug.
- Make sure the top surface faces up; do not install on its
sides or upside down.
- Do not use the product in a confined, poorly-ventilated
location.

Inadequate ventilation can result in overheating, possibly
causing damage to the product(s), or even fire. If this product
is to be used in a small space other than an EIA-standard
rack, make sure that there is adequate space around the
product: at least 15 cm above, 2 cm at the sides and 5 cm
behind.
• If the product is mounted in an EIA standard rack, carefully
read the section “Precautions for Rack Mounting” of the AXR4
Operation Manual. Inadequate ventilation can result in
overheating, possibly causing damage to the product(s),
malfunction, or even fire.
• Do not place the product in a location where it may come into
contact with corrosive gases or salt air. Doing so may result in
malfunction.
• Before moving the product, remove all connected cables.
Maintenance
• Remove the power plug from the AC outlet when cleaning the
product.
Handling caution
• Do not rest your weight on the product or place heavy objects
on it.
NOTICE
To avoid the possibility of malfunction/ damage to the product,
damage to data, or damage to other property, follow the notices
below.
Handling and maintenance
• Do not use the product in the vicinity of a TV, radio, AV
equipment, mobile phone, or other electric products.
Otherwise, the product, TV, or radio may generate noise.
• Do not expose the product to excessive dust or vibration, or
extreme cold or heat (such as in direct sunlight, near a heater,
or in a car during the day), in order to prevent the possibility of
panel disfiguration, unstable operation, or damage to the
internal components.
• Condensation can occur in the product due to rapid, drastic
changes in ambient temperature—when the product is moved
from one location to another, or air conditioning is turned on or
off, for example. Using the product while condensation is
present can cause damage. If there is reason to believe that
condensation might have occurred, leave the product for
several hours without turning on the power until the
condensation has completely dried out.
• Do not place vinyl, plastic or rubber objects on the product,
since this might discolor the panel.
• When cleaning the product, use a dry and soft cloth. Do not
use paint thinners, solvents, cleaning fluids, or chemical-
impregnated wiping cloths.
• Even when the [ ] (Standby/On) switch is in standby status
(power lamp is off/ display is off), electricity is still flowing to
the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using
the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the
power cord from the wall AC outlet.
• To avoid generating unwanted noise, make sure there is
adequate distance between the AC adaptor and the product.
Connectors
• XLR-type connectors are wired as follows (IEC60268
standard): pin 1: ground, pin 2: hot (+), and pin 3: cold (-).
• When connecting D-sub cables, be sure to tighten the screws
on both sides of the connector securely. To disconnect the
cable, loosen the screws completely, then remove the cable
by holding the connector part. Do not remove the plug by
pulling the cable while the screws are still attached.
Otherwise, the connector may be damaged, leading to
malfunction.
Yamaha/Steinberg cannot be held responsible for damage
caused by improper use or modifications to the product, or
data that is lost or destroyed.
