User manual NAD S400

[. . . ] Retain this notice and the owner's manual for future reference. All warnings on the unit and in its operating instructions should be adhered to. 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. [. . . ] Do not use solutions containing benzol or other volatile agents. The S400 comes supplied with a separate AC mains cable. Before connecting the cable to a live wall socket, ensure that it is firmly connected to the NAD S400's AC Mains input socket first. Always disconnect the AC mains cable plug from the live wall socket first before disconnecting the cable from the S400 Mains input socket. Press this button to switch on the power to the S400. Press again and release to switch the power off. The display window lights up when power is ON. The blue LED above the POWER button lights up briefly when ON/OFF is activated, but it goes out again immediately. The blue LED lights up permanently only to indicate stand-by if the unit is turned off from an NAD system remote control with STANDBY button. If this option is used, the S400 may be switched on again by pressing the STANDBY button of the system remote, or by pressing and releasing the POWER button on the front of the S400 to switch it off, and then press it again to switch it on. Please note that the remote control which comes with the S400 does not feature a STANDBY button. the S400 uses a non-volatile memory to store preset information. This information is retained even if the unit is switched off completely or unplugged. NOTE: When switching power On, the S400 will go back to the station last tuned to before the unit was turned off. This will allow you to make timer recordings using an external timer and recorder. The S400 is equipped with two antenna connectors to allow you to connect simultaneously to for example a cable network and an outdoor aerial. a ribbon wire FM antenna is included in order to permit reception even if no outdoor antenna or cable is available. It should be connected to one of the FM connectors at the rear of the unit using the `balun' adapter supplied. Experiment with placement of the indoor antenna to find the position that gives the best signal strength and lowest background noise. An inadequate FM signal normally results in high levels of hiss, especially in stereo, and interference from external electrical sources. In areas of poor FM reception, the tuner performance can be improved by using an externally mounted FM antenna. A qualified aerial installer will be able to advise and fit a recommended aerial for your reception conditions. [. . . ] The SEARCH indicator lights up (in 120V version only) when the S400 is in Search mode. The STEREO indicator lights up when the S400 receives a stereo broadcast. The CENTRE TUNE indicator lights up when the S400 is tuned to the exact frequency of the transmitter. Tune to the radio station you wish to enter into a preset. [. . . ]
