MY8-mLAN Installation Precautions
Before beginning installation, switch off the power to the main unit and any connected periph-
erals, and unplug them from the power outlet. Then remove all cables connecting the main
unit to other devices. (Leaving the power cord connected while working can result in electric
shock. Leaving other cables connected can interfere with the installation procedure.)
It is recommended that you wear gloves to protect your hands from sharp or pointed projec-
tions on the equipment.
Board components may be damaged by electrostatic discharge. Be sure to drain any electro-
static charge from body and clothes before starting work. Keep hands clear of board compo-
nents, board circuitry, and metallic leads while carrying out the installation.
Handle the plug-in boards with care. Dropping or subjecting the card to any kind of shock may
cause damage or result in a malfunction.
Do not touch the exposed metal parts in the circuit board. Touching these parts may result in a
faulty contact.
Take care to avoid dropping screws into the main unit. If a screw does fall in, be sure to remove
it before you reassemble and power up the unit. Starting the unit with a loose screw inside may
lead to improper operation or to equipment failure. (If you are unable to retrieve a dropped
screw, consult your Yamaha dealer for advice.)
