The lightning flash with arrowhead, within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user of 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 of the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS (Figure 1.) NAD 2 FRONT PANEL CONTROLS (Figure 2.) REMOTE CONTROL (Figure 3.) NAD 3 GB NAD 517 COMPACT DISC PLAYER Keep this manual in a safe place for future reference. NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: - Reorientate or relocate the receiving antenna. - Increase the distance between the equipment and receiver. - Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. - Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. IMPORTANT... This Digital Compact Disc Changer was developed to give you many years of enjoyment. Please read the following instructions carefully. They have been prepared to assist you during the initial set-up procedure and to assure you of optimum performance at all times. THE WARRANTY ON THIS UNIT DOES NOT COVER DAMAGE CAUSED BY MIS-HANDLING OR MISUSE. FOR SAFE AND EFFICIENT OPERATION CAUTION: READ THIS BEFORE OPERATING YOUR UNIT. The equipment is a sophisticated electro-mechanical device.To ensure proper operation, please read this manual carefully. Choose the installation location of your unit carefully. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight. Also avoid locations subject to vibration and excessive dust, heat, cold or moisture. Keep away from such sources of hum as transformers or motors. Do not use this unit where there are extremes in temperature (below 41°F/5°C or exceeding 95°F/35°C) or where direct sunlight may strike it. Do not remove the top cover as this might result in damage to the player or electrical shock. Be sure hands are clean when handling discs. Never insert a disc which has a crack on its surface. When disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, always grasp it by the plug. Never tug the cord. Do not use force when operating switches and buttons. Before moving the set be sure to disconnect the power cord and all connecting cables. To keep the laser-pickup clean, do not leave the disc tray open when the player is not in use. Do not attempt to clean the unit with chemical solvents as this may damage the finish. Use a clean, dry cloth. DANGER: When the top cover is removed and the safety interlock is defeated or has failed, avoid direct exposure to invisible laser beam. WARNING TO UK USERS. If this appartus is fitted with a two-pin Europlug, do not attempt to insert the plug into a UK mains socket. Instead, cut the plug from the mains lead and attach a fused UK three-pin plug using the following safety advice on wiring. IMPORTANT. The wires in this mains lead are coloured BLUE and BROWN; BLUE: NEUTRAL BROWN: LIVE The colours of these mains lead wires may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug. In this case the BROWN wire must be connected to the terminal which is marked L(ive) or coloured RED. The BLUE wire must be connected to the terminal marked N(eutral) or coloured BLACK. No connection should be made to the terminal marked E or coloured green or green and yellow CONNECTING THE DIGITAL COMPACT DISC CHANGER (Please refer to Figure 1.) CAUTION: - Before making connections or disconnections, be sure to switch off the power to each component. - Be sure to make the correct connections, paying attention to the L (left channel) and R (right channel) marks. Plug in the cables securely. Loose connections will result in unsatisfactory sound reproduction or cause noise problems. Refer to Fig. 1. - After all connections have been completed, connect the power cord of the main unit to either a household outlet or an auxiliary outlet on the amplifier.- If this unit interferes with the tuner, switch off the unit during tuner operation. CAUTION. ALWAYS REPLACE THE FUSE WITH THE SAME TYPE AND VALUE. DISCONNECT THE POWER SUPPLY FIRST. NOTE: Do not move this player with compact discs sets inside. Otherwise,the compact discs may become jammed inside the player. Be sure to read TROUBLE-SHOOTING GUIDE section for advice on common operating errors, before concluding that your unit requires service. NAD 4 (1) LINE OUT SOCKETS. Connect one end of the patch cords (supplied) to these sockets and the other end to the jacks designated by CD, DAT, AUX, TAPE PLAY, T.V., TUNER, etc., on the amplifier. Do not connect it to the amplifier's PHONO jacks. Do not confuse the right (R) and left (L) cords when making connections. The white plug is for the left channel and the red plug is for the right channel. GB (2) DIGITAL OUTPUT. The digital playback signal is available at this output jack. The serial data output is taken after error correction and de-interleaving, but before digital-toanalog conversion and filtering. The output is buffered to isolate it from the built-in D-to-A circuits. It may be connected to any digital signal processor that conforms to the Sony/Philips standard. To use the digital output, connect a cable from this jack to the "CD digital" or equivalent input on the digital processor. The cable must be a 75-ohm coaxial cable of the type used for video signals, with an RCA phono plug at each end. (To distinguish them from similar phono-plug cables used for audio, video cables often are color-coded with yellow plugs.) 3. Load the disc on the disc tray (2), label side up. 4. Press the NEXT DISC button (9) to load all 5 discs. - Each time the NEXT DISC button is pressed, the carousel turns clockwise to the next disc position. NOTE:DO NOT TOUCH OR FORCE THE CAROUSEL WHILE IT IS ROTATING. CAUTION: Do not put anything except a compact disc into the tray. Foreign objects can damage the mechanism. (3) AC POWER CORD...
