  • You must peel off the insulation (covering) from the tip of the speaker cable to expose the conductor.
  • Check the connections; make sure that left and right (L, R) and polarity (red: +, black: -) are connected correctly. If connections are incorrect, the sound will be unnatural and the low frequencies may be insufficient. There might not be any sound at all if connections are incorrect.
  • Take care that the conductors of the speaker cable do not touch each other, and that the conductors do not touch any other metal part. Such conditions can damage this unit or the speakers.
  • Use only the supplied speakers. Using other speakers may result in unnatural sound.
  • If you're using this unit nearby a CRT display and you notice distorted color or noise in the display, move the speakers farther away from the display.

  • The 2.4 GHz band used by Bluetooth compatible devices is a radio band shared by many types of equipment. While Bluetooth compatible devices use a technology minimizing the influence of other components using the same radio band, such influence may reduce the speed or distance of communications and in some cases interrupt communications.
  • The speed of signal transfer and the distance at which communication is possible differs according to the distance between the communicating devices, the presence of obstacles, radio wave conditions and the type of equipment.
  • Yamaha does not guarantee all wireless connections between this unit and devices compatible with Bluetooth function.
