Yamaha RY9 Musical Instrument User Manual


 
POWER-ON PROCEDURE.
There is actually a correct process for switching the various components in an
electronic music system on and off. The rules are simple but important.
BEFORE TURNING ANYTHING ON:
Be sure that all components are actually plugged in, and check to make
sure that all volume controls are turned down to their zero positions.
Always turn the RY9 on first (followed by any additional devices which may
be connected).
Always turn the sound system on last.
Raise the sound system volume to a reasonable level.
Gradually raise the RY9 volume while playing the drum pads to set the
desired listening level.
When turning the various components off, simply reverse the process. The
reason for turning the RY9 on first and off last is to avoid the possibility of
sending a power surge through the sound system which could damage the
amplifier or speakers.
Even when the switch is in the “STANDBY” position, electricity is still flowing to the instrument at a
minimum level. When not using the RY9 for an extended period of time, be sure to unplug the AC
power adaptor from the wall AC outlet.
