PLAYING AND RECORDING

OPERATION

English

■ Adjusting the BASS and TREBLE

controls

The BASS and TREBLE controls adjust high and low

frequency response.

The center position produces a flat response.

BASS

When you feel there is not enough bass (low frequency

sound), rotate clockwise to boost. When you feel there is

too much bass, rotate counterclockwise to suppress.

Control range: –10 dB to +10 dB (20 Hz)

TREBLE

When you feel there is not enough treble (high frequency

sound), rotate clockwise to boost. When you feel there is

too much treble, rotate counterclockwise to suppress.

■ Adjusting the BALANCE control

The BALANCE control adjusts the sound output balance

of the left and right speakers to compensate for sound

imbalance caused by speaker locations or listening room

conditions.

■ Adjusting the LOUDNESS control

Retain a full tonal range at any volume level, thus

compensating for the human ears’ loss of sensitivity to

high and low-frequency ranges at low volume.

1 Pour utiliser l’appareil au mieux de ses possibilités, lisez

attentivement ce mode d’emploi. Conservez-le

soigneusement pour référence.

2 Installez cet ensemble audio dans un endroit bien aéré,

frais, sec et propre - veillez à ce qu’il soit à l’abri de la

lumière directe du soleil, des sources de chaleur, des

vibrations, des poussières, de l’humidité et/ou du froid.

Pour une ventilation correcte, ménagez l’espace

minimum suivant autour de cet appareil.

Au-dessus : 30 cm

À l’arrière : 20 cm

Sur les côtés : 20 cm

3 Placez l’appareil loin des équipements, moteurs et

transformateurs électriques, pour éviter les ronflements

parasites.

4 N’exposez pas l’appareil à des variations brutales de

température, ne le placez pas dans un environnement très

humide (par exemple dans une pièce contenant un

humidificateur) car cela peut entraîner la condensation

d’humidité à l’intérieur de l’appareil qui elle-même peut

être responsable de décharge électrique, d’incendie, de

dommage à l’appareil ou de blessure corporelle.

5 Evitez d’installer l’appareil dans un endroit où des objets

peuvent tomber, ainsi que là où l’appareil pourrait être

exposé à des éclaboussures ou des gouttes d’eau. Sur le

dessus de l’appareil, ne placez pas :

– d’autres appareils qui peuvent endommager la surface

de l’appareil ou provoquer sa décoloration.

– des objets se consumant (par exemple, une bougie)

qui peuvent être responsables d’incendie, de

dommage à l’appareil ou de blessure corporelle.

– des récipients contenant des liquides qui peuvent être

à l’origine de décharge électrique ou de dommage à

l’appareil.

6 Ne couvrez pas l’appareil d’un journal, d’une nappe, d’un

rideau, etc. car cela empêcherait l’évacuation de la

chaleur. Toute augmentation de la température intérieure

de l’appareil peut être responsable d’incendie, de

dommage à l’appareil ou de blessure corporelle.

7 Ne branchez pas la fiche du câble d’alimentation de

l’appareil sur une prise secteur aussi longtemps que tous

les raccordements n’ont pas été effectués.

8 Ne pas faire fonctionner l’appareil à l’envers. Il risquerait

de chauffer et d’être endommagé.

9 N’exercez aucune force excessive sur les commutateurs,

les boutons et les cordons.

10 Pour débrancher la fiche du câble d’alimentation au

niveau de la prise secteur, saisissez la fiche et ne tirez pas

sur le cordon.

11 Ne nettoyez pas l’appareil au moyen d’un solvant

chimique, ce qui pourrait endommager la finition.

Utilisez un chiffon sec et propre.

12 N’alimentez l’appareil qu’à partir de la tension prescrite.

Alimenter l’appareil sous une tension plus élevée est

dangereux et peut être responsable d’incendie, de

dommage à l’appareil ou de blessure corporelle. Yamaha

de l’alimentation de l’appareil sous une tension autre que

celle prescrite.

13 Pour empêcher tout dommage causé par les éclairs,

déconnectez le câble d’alimentation et toute antenne

extérieure de la prise murale pendant un orage.

14 Ne tentez pas de modifier ni de réparer l’appareil.

Consultez le service Yamaha compétent pour toute

réparation qui serait requise. Le coffret de l’appareil ne

doit jamais être ouvert, quelle que soit la raison.

15 Si vous envisagez de ne pas vous servir de l’appareil

pendant une longue période (par exemple, pendant les

vacances), débranchez la fiche du câble d’alimentation au

niveau de la prise secteur.

16 Lisez la section intitulée « GUIDE DE DÉPANNAGE »

où figurent une liste d’erreurs de manipulation

communes avant de conclure que l’appareil présente une

anomalie de fonctionnement.

17 Avant de déplacer l’appareil, appuyez sur A pour mettre

l’appareil hors tension, puis débranchez la fiche du

cordon d’alimentation au niveau de la prise secteur.

18 La condensation se forme lorsque la température

ambiante change brusquement. En ce cas, débranchez la

fiche du câble d’alimentation et laissez l’appareil reposer.

19 La température de l’appareil peut augmenter en raison

d’une utilisation prolongée. En ce cas, coupez

l’alimentation de l’appareil et laissez-le au repos pour

qu’il refroidisse.

20 Installez cet appareil à proximité de la prise secteur et à

un emplacement où la fiche du câble d’alimentation est

facilement accessible.

21 Les piles ne doivent pas être exposées à une chaleur

extrême, par exemple au soleil, à une flamme, etc. Lors

de la mise au rebut des piles, suivez vos réglementations

locales.

22 Une pression excessive du son par les écouteurs et le

casque d’écoute peut entraîner la perte de l’ouïe.

A-S500 uniquement

Cette étiquette doit être apposée sur un produit dont le capot

supérieur peut devenir chaud lorsqu’il fonctionne.
