PLAYBACK

■ Making it easier to hear the high- and

low-frequency ranges even at low

volume (LOUDNESS)

Enjoy natural sound even at low volume by lowering the

mid-range sound level and compensating for the human

ears’ loss of sensitivity to high- and low-frequency ranges

at low volume.

If the CD DIRECT AMP function (or the PURE DIRECT

function) is turned on with the LOUDNESS control set at

a certain level, the input signals bypass the loudness

control, resulting in a sudden increase in the sound output

level. To prevent your ears or the speakers from being

damaged, be sure to press the CD DIRECT AMP button

(or the PURE DIRECT button) AFTER lowering the

sound output level or AFTER checking that the

LOUDNESS control is properly set.

1 Set the LOUDNESS control to the FLAT

position.

2 Rotate the VOLUME control on the front

panel (or press VOLUME +/– on the remote

control) to set the sound output level to the

loudest listening level that you would listen

to.

3 Rotate the LOUDNESS control

counterclockwise until the desired volume is

obtained.

■ Reproducing pure, high fidelity sound

(PURE DIRECT)

When the PURE DIRECT function is on, noise can be

reduced by bypassing the circuit that the audio input

signal is not using and stopping the power supply to the

circuit.

Therefore, in all input sources, you can enjoy music

playback in straight and high quality sound.

The indicator above the PURE DIRECT button lights up

when this function is turned on.

The BASS, TREBLE, BALANCE and LOUDNESS controls do

not function while the PURE DIRECT function is turned on.

■ Reproducing CD sound with the highest

sound quality (CD DIRECT AMP)

(A-S701 only)

When selecting the input source other than CD, if you

press the CD DIRECT AMP button, the input source

switches to CD.

• The BASS, TREBLE, BALANCE and LOUDNESS controls do

not function while the CD DIRECT AMP function is turned on.

• Be sure to connect the CD player to the CD input jacks if you

use the CD direct function.

• The CD DIRECT AMP function is turned off if the following

operation is performed.

– Select an input source other than CD for the INPUT selector.

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

ne saurait être tenue responsable des dommages résultant

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 (alimentation) pour mettre l’appareil en mode veille,

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.

22 Une pression excessive du son par les écouteurs et le

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

Cette étiquette doit être apposée sur un produit dont le

capot supérieur peut devenir chaud lorsqu’il fonctionne.

ATTENTION : VEUILLEZ LIRE CE QUI SUIT AVANT D’UTILISER

L’APPAREIL.

Cet appareil n’est pas déconnecté du secteur tant qu’il reste

branché à la prise de courant, même si l’appareil en soi est éteint

par la touche A. Il se trouve alors « en veille ». En mode veille,

l’appareil consomme une très faible quantité de courant.

AVERTISSEMENT

POUR RÉDUIRE LES RISQUES D’INCENDIE OU DE

DÉCHARGE ÉLECTRIQUE, N’EXPOSEZ PAS CET

APPAREIL À LA PLUIE OU À L’HUMIDITÉ.
