Precautions !! PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE PROCEEDING !! s Location Do not expose the G1D to the following conditions to avoid deformation, discoloration, or more serious damage. • Direct sunlight (e.g. near a window). • High temperatures (e.g. near a heat source, outside, or in a car during the daytime). • Excessive humidity. • Excessive dust. • Strong vibration. s Connections • When connecting the G1D to the Yamaha G50 Guitar MIDI Converter, be sure to use the specified multi-pin cable (supplied with the G50 Guitar MIDI Converter). • Always connect the direct guitar cable (page 12), even if you don't intend to use the direct guitar sound. The direct guitar cable is essential for proper grounding, to minimize noise and prevent electric shock. • Always unplug cables by gripping the plug firmly, not by pulling on the cable. • Disconnect all cables before moving the instrument or any connected equipment. s Handling and Transport • Never apply excessive force to the controls, connectors or other parts of the instrument. • Physical shocks caused by dropping, bumping, or placing heavy objects on the instrument can result in scratches and more serious damage. • Be careful not to damage the G1D controller when placing the guitar in a case or on a stand. s Cleaning • Clean the unit with a dry soft cloth. • A slightly damp cloth may be used to remove stubborn grime and dirt. • Never use cleaners such as alcohol or thinner. s Service and Modification • The G1D contains no user serviceable parts. Opening it or tampering with it in any way can lead to irreparable damage and possibly electric shock. Refer all servicing to qualified YAMAHA personnel.
