User manual NAD C162

[. . . ] Do not use this unit near water; for example, near a bath tub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub, in a wet basement or near a swimming pool. The unit should be installed so that its location or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example, it should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug or similar surface that may block the ventilation openings; or placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet, that may impede the flow of air through its ventilation openings. The unit should be situated from heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves or other devices (including amplifiers) that produce heat. [. . . ] The output level can be reduced by up to 12dB; when set to the maximum position (at the 0dB position), the output level will be identical to that of the PRE OUT 1 sockets. NOTE Always turn the pre-amplifier and associated power amplifiers off before connecting or disconnecting anything to the Pre-Out 1 & 2 sockets. PHONO GROUND CONNECTOR Often, the twin RCA leads from turntables also includes a single wire earth lead. Use a twin RCA-to-RCA lead to connect the CD player's left and right `Audio Outputs' to this input. VIDEO INPUT Input for the audio signal from a stereo VCR (or stereo TV/Satellite/Cable receiver) or other line-level audio source. Using twin RCA-to-RCA leads, connect to the left and right `Audio Out' of the unit to these inputs. AUX INPUT Input for additional line level input signals such as another CD player. Use a twin RCA-to-RCA lead to connect the auxiliary unit's left and right `Audio Outputs' to this input. NOTE The total power consumption of any components connected to the AC outlets may not exceed 100 Watts. Never connect the mains lead of a power amplifier to either the Switched or Unswitched outlets of the NAD C 162. INFRA-RED REMOTE CONTROL COMMAND RECEIVER The infrared sensor, located behind this circular window, receives commands from the remote control. There must be a clear line-of-sight path from the remote control to this window; if that path is obstructed, the remote control may not work. Mains power is always available on the outlet marked "unswitched" as long as the NAD C 162's power cord is plugged into a live AC wall outlet. This outlet can be used for components which may require continuous supply of AC mains; some tuners require uninterrupted mains supply to retain preset memory, for instance. SWITCHED AND UNSWITCHED POWER OUTLETS (AH VERSION ONLY) The AC power cords of other stereo components, such as a CD player, may be plugged into these accessory outlets. Components plugged into the outlet marked "switched" will be switched on and off as the preamplifier is switched from stand-by or off to on and vice versa. HEADPHONE SOCKET A 1/4" stereo jack socket is supplied for headphone listening and will work with conventional headphones of any impedance. Inserting a headphone jack into this socket automatically switches off the output to the PRE OUT 1 & 2 sockets on the back panel. the volume , tone and balance controls are operative for headphone listening. Use a suitable adapter to connect headphones with other types of sockets, such as 3.
