CAUTION Always follow the basic precautions listed below to avoid the possibility of physical injury to you or others, or damage to the instrument or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following: Power supply/AC adaptor • Do not connect the instrument to an electrical outlet using a multipleconnector. Doing so can result in lower sound quality, or possibly cause overheating in the outlet. • When removing the electric plug from the instrument or an outlet, always hold the plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it. • Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the instrument is not to be used for extended periods of time, or during electrical storms. Assembly • Read carefully the attached documentation explaining the assembly process. Failure to assemble the instrument in the proper sequence might result in damage to the instrument or even injury. • Do not place hands or feet under a foot switch or foot pedal. Doing so could result in injury. • Do not use the electronic drum kit's rack to hold acoustic drums. Doing so could cause clamps to break and the drums to fall off, which in turn could lead to injury. • Mind your fingers when adjusting clamps. Fingers can easily be caught and crushed if care is not taken during this operation. • Be careful with the tips of supports, arms, screws, and the like. Fingers can easily be injured by sharp tips if these components are not handled carefully. • Do not sit or stand on the rack. Doing so could cause it to fall over or break, possibly causing injury. • Be careful with the holders for cymbal and tom pads as they have sharp tips. In order to avoid injury, therefore, you should take special care whenever handling these components. • Be careful with the anti-slip stoppers on kick pads and foot pedals as they have sharp tips. In order to avoid injury, therefore, you should take special care whenever handling these components. • Securely tighten fixing nuts and other fasteners. In addition, be sure to immediately tighten any nuts that have come loose. If this precaution is not observed, pads may fall off or the rack may collapse or fall over, possibly causing injury. • Take care when setting up cables. If anyone were to trip on a cable, the instrument could topple over and cause injury. Location • Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over. • The flooring material (wooden floor, etc.) may be damaged if the instrument is placed directly on the floor. We recommend that you place it on carpet or the like. • Before moving the instrument, remove all connected cables, to prevent damage to the cables or injury to anyone who might trip over them. • When setting up the product, 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, electricity is still flowing to the product at the minimum level. When you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet. • Use only the stand/rack specified for the instrument. When attaching it, use the provided screws only. Failure to do so could cause damage to the internal components or result in the instrument falling over. Connections • Before connecting the instrument to other electronic components, turn off the power for all components. Before turning the power on or off for all components, set all volume levels to minimum. • Be sure to set the volumes of all components at their minimum levels and gradually raise the volume controls while playing the instrument to set the desired listening level. Handling caution • Avoid contact with grease. Grease is applied to pedals as a lubricant, which may attach to your clothes when carrying or setting up them. • Do not insert a finger or hand in any gaps on the instrument. • Never insert or drop paper, metallic, or other objects into the gaps on the panel. This could cause physical injury to you or others, damage to the instrument or other property, or operational failure. • Do not rest your weight on, or place heavy objects on the instrument, and do not use excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors. • Do not use the instrument/device or headphones 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. Yamaha cannot be held responsible for damage caused by improper use or modifications to the instrument, or data that is lost or destroyed. Always turn the power off when the instrument is not in use. Even when the [ ] (Standby/On) switch is in standby status (all lamps are off), electricity is still flowing to the instrument at the minimum level. When you are not using the instrument for a long time, make sure you unplug the power cord from the wall AC outlet. DMI-5 2/2 DTX402K DTX432K DTX452K Owner's Manual 5
