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

tions. The required supply voltage is printed on the name plate.

Special Message Section of this manual.

This product 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

replaced. Do NOT defeat the safety purpose of the plug.

mended! 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.
