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. ¦ 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 B1D controller when placing the guitar in a case or on a stand. ¦ 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 thinner. ¦ Notes on Adhesive Tape • Depending on the surface of the bass guitar the finish may peel off or be altered chemically when the pickup/controller is mounted using adhesive tape (double-sided). To make sure, it is recommended that you first try this method of attachment by applying some tape at a place on the guitar body which is not visible normally. • If the pickup must be removed from the base guitar, always use a fresh layer of double-sided adhesive tape and/or cushion when reinstalling, as the adhesive properties of used tape/cushion are reduced drastically when peeled off the mating surface. Also, before attaching the adhesive tape or pickup, clean the mating surface thoroughly, as dust and grease may cause the pickup to come loose. ¦ Service and Modification • The B1D 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. Yamaha is not responsible for damage caused by improper installation, handling, or operation.
