Important Safety Instructions For Disklavier™ Owners


Important Safety Instructions For Disklavier™ Owners

Do not attempt to service the electronic/electro-mechanical components of your Disklavier. All service to these components should be referred to qualified service personnel.
  • Read all safety instructions, installation instructions, special message section items, and any assembly instructions in the owner's manual BEFORE making any connections, including connection to the main supply.

  • Main Power Supply verification: Yamaha products are manufactured specifically for the supply voltage in the area where they are to be sold. If you should move, or if any doubt exists about the supply voltage in your area, please contact your dealer for supply voltage verification and (if applicable) instructions. The required supply voltage is printed on the name plate. For name plate location, please refer to the graphic found in the Special Message Section of the owner's manual.

  • Model MX100II, MX100IIXG and MX1 may be equipped with a polarized plug (one blade wider than the other). If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, turn the plug over and try again. If the problem persists, contact an electrician to have the obsolete outlet replaced. DO NOT defeat the safety purpose of the plug.

  • DANGER – Grounding instructions: Disklavier Mark II and MarkIIXG Grands must be grounded and therefore have been equipped with a three pin attachment plug. If this product should malfunction, the ground pin provides a path of low resistance for electrical current, reducing the risk of electrical shock. If your wall socket will not accommodate this type plug, contact an electrician to have the outlet replaced in accordance with local electrical codes. DO NOT modify the plug or change the plug to a different type!

  • WARNING: Do not place piano on the power cord or place the piano in a position where anyone could walk on, trip over, or roll anything over power or connecting cords of any kind. The use of an extension cord is not recommended! If you must use an extension cord, the minimum wire size for a 25' cord (or less) is 18 AWG. NOTE: The smaller the AWG number, the larger the current handling capacity. For longer extension cords, consult a local electrician.

  • Ventilation: Your Disklavier, should be placed in locations that do not interfere with proper ventilation.

  • Temperature considerations: Your Disklavier, should be installed in locations that do not significantly contribute to their operating temperature. Placement of these products close to heat sources such as; radiators, heat registers, and other devices that produce heat should be avoided.

  • Disklaviers were not designed for use in wet/damp locations and should not be used near water or exposed to rain. Examples of wet/damp locations are; near a swimming pool, spa, tub, sink, or wet basement.

  • The power supply cord should be disconnected from the outlet when your Disklavier is left unused for extended periods of time. Cords should also be disconnected when there is a high probability of lightening and/or electrical storm activity.

  • Care should be taken that objects do not fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through any openings that may exist.

  • Do not attempt to service your Disklavier beyond that described in the owners manuals. All other servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.
