EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING
19 For U.S. customers only:
Outdoor Antenna Grounding – If an outside antenna is
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.

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system
installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that
provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in
particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be
connected to the grounding system of the building,
as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

PRECAUTIONS: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING THE UNIT
CAUTIONS
This unit is not disconnected from the AC power
source as long as it is connected to the wall outlet,
even if this unit itself is turned off. This state is called
the standby mode. In this state, this unit is designed
to consume a very small quantity of power.
•
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.
CAUTION FOR CARRYING THE UNIT
Before carrying the unit, first remove all discs
from the unit, press STANDBY/ON to turn the unit
off, then disconnect the AC power plug from the
wall outlet.
•
(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.
FOR CANADIAN CUSTOMERS
TO PREVENT ELECTRIC SHOCK, MATCH WIDE
BLADE OF PLUG TO WIDE SLOT AND FULLY
INSERT.
Never open the cabinet. If something drops into the
set, contact your dealer.
•
•
Do not use force on switches, knobs or cords.
THIS CLASS B DIGITAL APPARATUS COMPLIES
WITH CANADIAN ICES-003.
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.
WARNING
•
•
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.
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not
expose this appliance to rain or moisture.
Grounding or polarization – Precautions should be
taken so that the grounding or polarization of the unit
is not defeated.
To avoid electrical shock, do not open the cabinet.
Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
•
•
Do not clean the unit with chemical solvents; this
might damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth.
DANGER
Invisible laser radiation when open and interlock
failed or defeated.
Avoid direct exposure to beam.
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.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of
procedures other than those specified herein may
result in hazardous radiation exposure.
•
•
•
•
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.
This compact disc player is
classified as a CLASS 1
LASER product.
The CLASS 1 LASER
PRODUCT label is located
on the rear exterior.
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.
CLAS S
1
LAS ER P RODUCT
(U.K., Europe, Singapore,
Australia, and General
models only.)
•
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.
Laser component in this product is capable of
emitting radiation exceeding the limit for Class 1.
•
•
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.

75-ohm coaxial cable
(not supplied)
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.
To enjoy synchro play or timer play
You can enjoy synchro recording (see page 23) or the
timer function (see page 18) by connecting the MDX-
M5 or KX-M5 to the system with the system cable. For
details, refer to the instructions supplied with the MDX-
M5 or KX-M5.
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.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
CD p re ve n t ive ca re
• This compact disc player is designed for playing
compact discs bearing the mark only. Never
attempt to load any other type of disc into the unit.
The unit will also play 8-cm (3-inch) compact discs.
• Compact discs are not affected by small particles of
dust or fingerprints on their playing surface, but even
so they should be kept clean. Wipe by using a clean,
dry cloth. Do not wipe with a circular motion; wipe
straight outward from the center.
• Compact discs are not subjected to wear during play,
but damage to the disc surface when the disc is
being handled can adversely affect the disc’s play.
• Do not use cleaning discs or warped discs. All of
these could damage the unit.
To prevent a malfunction of this unit
• Do not use any non standard shaped CD (heart etc.)
available on the market, because it may damage the
unit.
• Do not try to clean the disc’s surface by using any
type of disc cleaner, record spray, anti-static spray or
liquid, or any other chemical-based liquid, because
such substances might irreparably damage the disc’s
surface.
• Do not expose discs to direct sunlight, high
temperature or high humidity for a long period of
time, because these might warp or otherwise damage
the disc.
• Do not use a CD with tape, seals, or paste on it,
because damage to the unit may result.
