[. . . ] TO REDUCE THE RISK OF FIRE OR ELECTRONIC SHOCK, DO NOT EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE This product is manufactured to comply with the radio interference requirements of EEC DIRECTIVE 89/68/EEC and 73/23/EEC EXPLANATION OF GRAPHICAL SYMBOLS The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within an equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. the exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance. PRECAUTIONS Read the Operating Instructions carefully and completely before operating the unit. Be sure to keep the Operating Instructions for future reference. [. . . ] 4 IR in - The IR IN connector is used to pass commands from other units fitted with IR OUT connectors. This allows centralized control of a complete system, and also allows some of the basic functions of other NAD components (such as a CD player or cassette-deck) also equipped with IR IN to be controlled with an NAD system remote control. To function with such other units, connect the C 425's IR IN to the IR OUT on the other unit. IR IN connectors can be daisychained, IN to OUT, so that a whole system can be controlled from the remote control facilities of one unit. NOTES ON INSTALLATION Your NAD C 425 should be placed on a firm, level surface. Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight, near sources of heat and damp or in poorly ventilated positions. It comes with RCA leads for connection to your amplifier. Ensure that leads and connectors are not damaged in any way and all connectors are firmly pushed home. 3 Output - Using twin RCA-to-RCA leads, connect to the left (white) and right (red) audio outputs to the "Tuner" input or other line-level input such as "Aux" input of your amplifier. Do not connect this cable to the amplifier's "Phono" input. Pressing the Power button again will switch the unit off. nOTE The C 425 has a receiver for remote control commands built-in. Most NAD system remote control handsets with an On/Off toggle button or separate On and Off button will be able to switch the tuner from On to Stand-by and vice-versa. the C 425 uses a memory back-up system to store Preset information. This information is retained for several weeks, even if the unit is switched off completely or unplugged. The Display Panel shows the frequency of the tuned station and which band is selected. 7 Display (TNR 1 Figure 3)- With stations carrying RDS information, The Display button scrolls between three different display modes, each successive push of the button engages the next one of the three modes: a) In the default mode, the station's RDS name is displayed, Program Service (PS; normally the station's calling letters, BBC R3, for instance). B) From the default mode, press the button once to view Radio Text (RT). This can be additional information such as the presenter's or program's name; what song is playing, etc. Press again to return to the default mode (a). When tuned to a non-RDS station - The Display button toggles the display to show either the station frequency or user entered station name. if no user name was entered the display will indicate "NO RDS". [. . . ] 6 Repeat steps 3 to 5 until name is complete or all eight places have been filled (up to 8 characters). 7 Press Memory once to finish the labelling procedure. RDS Stations will always display their transmitted name and cannot be over-written. Particularly with Custom Install in mind, the NAD C 425 will respond to other commands not usually found on NAD remote control handsets. [. . . ]
