Precautions for Rack Mounting
This unit is rated for operation at ambient temperatures ranging from 0 to 40 degrees Celsius. When
mounting the unit with other MA2120 unit(s) or other device(s) in an EIA standard equipment rack,
inter
nal temperatures can exceed the specified upper limit, resulting in impaired performance or
failure. When rack mounting the unit, always observe the following requirements to avoid heat buildup:
•
•
When mounting the unit in a rack with devices such as power amplifiers that generate a significant
amount of heat, leave more than 1U of space between the MA2120 and other equipment. Also either
leave the open spaces uncovered or install appropriate ventilating panels to minimize the possibility
of heat buildup.
To ensure sufficient airflow, leave the rear of the rack open and position it at least 10 centimeters
fr
om walls or other surfaces. If the rear of the rack can’t be left open, install a commercially available
fan or similar ventilating option to secure sufficient airflow. If you’ve installed a fan kit, there may be
cases in which closing the rear of the rack will produce a greater cooling effect. Refer to the rack
and/or fan unit manual for details.

WARNING
Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid
the possibility of serious injury or even death from electrical
shock, short-circuiting, damages, re or other hazards. These
precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Power supply/power cord
• Do not place the power cord near heat sources such as
heaters or radiators, and do not excessively bend or otherwise
damage the cord, place heavy objects on it, or place it in a
position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything
over it.
• Only use the voltage specified as correct for the device. The
required voltage is printed on the name plate of the device.
• Use only the supplied power cord/plug.
If you intend to use the device in an area other than in the
one you purchased, the included power cord may not be
compatible. Please check with your Yamaha dealer.
• Check the electric plug periodically and remove any dirt or
dust which may have accumulated on it.
• When setting up the device, make sure that the AC outlet you
are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction
occurs, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect
the plug from the outlet. Even when the power switch is turned
off, as long as the power cord is not unplugged from the wall
AC outlet, the device will not be disconnected from the power
source. When installing in a rack, connect a power cut-off
device additionally to power off the device handily.
• Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the device is not
to be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical
storms.
• Be sure to connect to an appropriate outlet with a protective
grounding connection. Improper grounding can result in
electrical shock, damage to the device(s), or even fire.
Do not open
• This device contains no user-serviceable parts. Do not
open the device or attempt to disassemble the internal
parts or modify them in any way. If it should appear to be
malfunctioning, discontinue use immediately and have it
inspected by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
Water warning
• Do not expose the device to rain, use it near water or in damp
or wet conditions, or place on it any containers (such as vases,
bottles or glasses) containing liquids which might spill into any
openings. If any liquid such as water seeps into the device,
turn off the power immediately and unplug the power cord from
the AC outlet. Then have the device inspected by qualified
Yamaha service personnel.
• Never insert or remove an electric plug with wet hands.
Hearing loss
• Avoid setting all equalizer controls and volume controls to
their maximum. Depending on the condition of the connected
devices, doing so may result in feedback that can cause
hearing loss and damage the speakers.
• Do not use speakers for a long period of time at a high or
uncomfortable volume level, since this can cause permanent
hearing loss. If you experience any hearing loss or ringing in
the ears, consult a physician.
• When turning on the AC power in your audio system, always
turn on the device LAST, to avoid hearing loss and speaker
damage. When turning the power off, the device should be
turned off FIRST for the same reason.
