connected to this unit, be sure the antenna system is
grounded so as to provide some protection against
voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810
of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70,
provides information with regard to proper grounding
of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the
lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, connection
to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the
grounding electrode.

CAUTIONS
•
To assure the finest performance, please read this
manual carefully. Keep it in a safe place for future
reference.
• Install your unit in good ventilation, a cool, dry, clean
place – away from windows, heat sources, vibration,
dust, moisture, or cold. To avoid humming sounds,
locate the unit away from other electrical appliances,
motors, and transformers. To prevent fire or electrical
shock, do not expose to rain and water.
• (U.K., Europe, and Singapore models only)
Be sure to allow at least 30 cm combined ventilation
space at the top, both of left and right, and back side
of the unit.
• Do not operate the unit upside-down. It may overheat,
possibly causing damage.
• Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the
set, contact your dealer.
• Do not use force on switches, knobs or cords.
• Always set the VOLUME control to minimum before
starting an audio source play: increase the volume
gradually to an appropriate level after play has
started.
• When not planning to use this unit for long periods of
time (i.e.., vacation, etc.), disconnect the AC power
plug from the wall outlet.
• Grounding or polarization – Precautions should be
taken so that the grounding or polarization of the unit
is not defeated.
• Do not clean the unit with chemical solvents; this
might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
• Be sure to read the “TROUBLESHOOTING” section
on common operating errors before concluding that
your unit is faulty.
• Do not place another component on top of this unit, as
damage or discoloration on the surface of the unit
may result.
• To prevent damage by lightning, disconnect the power
cord from the wall outlet during an electrical storm.
• When disconnecting the power cord from the wall
outlet, grasp the plug; do not pull the cord.
• Do not plug the AC power plug to the wall outlet
before you finish all connections.
• The voltage to be used must be the same as that
specified on this unit. Using this unit with a higher
voltage than that which is specified is dangerous and
may result in a fire or other type of accident causing
damage. YAMAHA will not be held responsible for any
damage resulting from use of this unit with a voltage
other than that which is specified.
• The sound level at a given volume setting depends on
speaker location and other factors. Care should be
taken to avoid exposure to sudden high levels of
sound, which may occur when turning on the unit with
the volume control setting at high, and to continuous
high levels of sound.
• Sudden temperature changes and storage or
operation in an extremely humid environment may
cause condensation inside the cabinet.
• Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference.
PRECAUTIONS: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING THE UNIT
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
expose this appliance to rain or moisture.
To avoid electrical shock, do not open the cabinet.
Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.

Connecting the system
Never plug the AC power cord to the wall outlet until all connections are completed.
Follow the steps as shown below to connect the system using the supplied cords and accessories.
1 Connect the speakers.
Connect the speaker cords to the SPEAKERS
terminals so that the polarity of the speaker cables
is correct.
Keep the speaker cords away from the antennas to
prevent noise.
2 Connect the AM antenna.
Set up the AM loop antenna, then connect it.
3 Connect the FM antenna.
4 Connect the AC power cord to a wall outlet.
To connect the subwoofer (optional)
You can reinforce the bass frequencies by adding a
subwoofer (optional).
Connect the SUBWOOFER OUT terminal of the unit to
the INPUT terminal of the subwoofer amplifier, and
connect the speaker terminals of the subwoofer
amplifier to the subwoofer.
With some subwoofers, the amplifier and subwoofer are
in the same unit.
AC outlet (U.S.A., Canada, Europe, General,
Singapore models only)
You can connect the AC power plug of the other
component up to 100W power. It is convenient to
connect the MDX-M5 or KX-M5.

To enhance your system, you can connect other components. Refer to the instructions of each component.
Connecting the KX-M5 (cassette deck) or MDX-M5 (MD deck)
1 Connect A to A, and B to B (for connecting the KX-M5), C to C, and D to D (for connecting the MDX-M5)
using the audio connecting cords.
Insert the plugs into the jacks of the same color.
• The audio connecting cords are the same, so you can connect A, B, C, or D using either cord.
2 Connect the unit and the KX-M5 or MDX-M5 with the system cable.
3 (MDX-M5 only)
Connect the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT jack of the unit and
the DIGITAL IN jack on the MDX-M5 with the optical fiber cable.
Note for digital connection
• Take off the covers of the optical fiber cable plug,
the OPTICAL DIGITAL OUT jack, and the
DIGITAL IN jack before digital connection.
• Be sure to replace the terminal’s cover when the
terminal on the rear panel is not being used, in
order to protect from dust.

Preparing the remote
control transmitter
Loading the batteries for the remote control
transmitter
1 Remove the battery compartment cover.
2 Insert 2 AAA size batteries into the battery
compartment.
3 Replace the battery compartment cover.
Battery replacement
If you find that the remote control transmitter must be
used closer to the main unit than usual, the batteries
are weak. Replace both batteries with new ones.
Notes
• Use only AAA batteries for replacement.
• Be sure the polarities are correct. (See the illustration inside
the battery compartment.)
• Remove the batteries if the remote control transmitter will
not be used for an extended period of time.
• If batteries leak, dispose of them immediately. Avoid
touching the leaked material or letting it come in contact with
clothing, etc. Clean the battery compartment thoroughly
before installing new batteries.
Connecting the external antennas
To improve the reception, connect the external
antennas instead of the supplied antennas.
