■ PRECAUTIONS
◆To avoid possible damage do not expose the unit to:
- direct sunlight
- very high or low temperature/humidity
- sand or excessive dust
* Especially inside a vehicle, the temperature may rise
excessively — do not leave the VA-2 in your parked car
on a sunny day!
◆Before connecting/disconnecting cables or turning the unit
on/off, be sure to set the VOLUME control on the VA-2 to 0.
◆The VA-2 can be operated with a 6F22 or 006P 9V dry cell
battery or an optional AC adapter (YAMAHA PA-3). Use of a
different AC adapter may damage the unit! When using a
different AC adapter, make sure that its voltage and polarity
(+
–) matches the VA-2.
◆Always turn the unit off after use. To avoid battery leakage,
remove the batteries when the unit is not to be used for an
extended period of time.
◆Neon and fluorescent lamps may induce noise. Keep the unit
away from such lighting sources.
◆Handle the unit carefully — never apply excessive force to
the controls and avoid dropping the unit.
◆Clean the exterior with a dry, soft cloth. Never use volatile
liquids such as benzine or thinner.
◆After reading this owner’s manual, keep it in a safe place for
future reference.
■ BATTERY REPLACEMENT
When the overall sound volume decreases or the sound becomes
distorted during battery operation, the batteries are exhausted and
should be replaced with new ones (6F22 or 006P). When the VA-2 is
to be used for longer periods at a time, we recommend the use of an
optional AC adapter (YAMAHA PA-3).
* Be sure to insert the batteries according to the polarity
markings (+ and –).
* Replace the batteries with the power turned off.
