[. . . ] Warning: To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose this unit to rain or moisture. The lightning flash with an 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 product. Do not place this unit on an unstable cart, stand or tripod, bracket or table. [. . . ] The Tone controls do not affect recordings made using the Tape outputs but will affect the signal going to the Pre-amp output (Pre Out). The 12 o'clock position provides equal level to the left and right channels. The BALANCE control does not affect recordings made using the Tape outputs but will affect the signal going to the Pre-amp output (Pre Out). If the Tone Controls are not normally used and left in the 12 o'clock position, then it is advisable to switch out the Tone Control section altogether by using this switch. The buttons on the remote control handset duplicate these buttons, with the exception of the tuner input; see below. TAPE 2 Monitor Selects the output from a tape recorder when playing back tapes or monitoring recordings being made through the Tape 2 sockets. Press the Tape 2 button once to select it and again to return to the normal input selection. Tape 2 is a tape Monitor function which does not override the current input selection. For example, if the CD is the active input when TAPE 2 is selected, then the CD signal will continue to be selected and sent to both the TAPE 1, and TAPE 2 OUTPUT sockets, but it is the sound from recorder connected to Tape 2 that will be heard on the loudspeakers. When Tape 2 Monitor is selected, "TAPE 2" is indicated in the alphanumeric section of the display for 3 seconds before it defaults to indicating the active input again. The box just over the alphanumeric section indicating "T-2 MONITOR" will remain lit until Tape 2 is disengaged again. tAPE 1 Selects Tape 1 as the active input. NOTE: The remote control handset with the C740 supplied is of a universal NAD type, designed to operate several NAD models. Some buttons on this handset are inoperative as the functions aren't supported by the C740. the Video 2 and Video 3 input selector buttons on the remote control handset are inoperative in the case of the C740. TO MAKE A RECORDING When any source is selected, its signal is also fed directly to any tape machine connected to the TAPE 1 or TAPE 2 OUTPUTS for recording. TAPE TO TAPE COPYING You can copy between two tape machines connected to your NAD C740. Put the source tape in the recorder connected to Tape 1 and the blank tape into the recorder connected to Tape 2. By selecting TAPE 1 Input you can now record from Tape 1 to Tape 2 and monitor the signal coming from the original tape. The Display Panel shows the frequency of the tuned station and which band is selected. BANK Pressing Bank switches between the C740's three Preset Memory Banks (A, B or C). Each of these banks can hold up to 10 Preset stations. [. . . ] RDS stations will always display their transmitted name and this cannot be over-written using CHARACTER. NOTE: The 120V versions (North America) do not have RDS (Radio Data System) REMOTE CONTROL HANDSET The Remote Control handset handles all the key functions of the NAD C740 and has additional controls to remotely operate NAD Tuners, Cassette and CD machines. Two AAA (R 03) batteries should be fitted in the battery compartment at the rear of the Remote Control handset. When replacing batteries, check that they have been put in the right way round, as indicated on the base of the battery compartment. [. . . ]
