ATTENTION: INSTALLATION PERSONNEL
The mounting hardware was specifically engineered for the NAD CI-series amplifier. We recommend that
you do not substitute the mounting hardware.
Due to the high-power capability of the NAD CI-series amplifier, the power supplies are heavy and may
require more than one installation person to rack-mount the amplifier.
NOTE
The amplifier's weight must always rest on its bottom feet when placed on to a surface. Never put the
amplifier down on its rear panel, with its front panel facing up. Doing so risks damage to the
input/output connectors.
The amplifier generates a moderate amount of heat, requiring internal ventilation. Do not permit the air
inlet and outlet grilles on the top, bottom, side, and back cover to be obstructed by papers or other
materials.
NOTE
To prevent a fire or shock hazard, do not permit liquid or moisture to enter the amplifier. If liquid is
accidentally spilled on it, immediately shut off the power and unplug the AC Mains cable from the wall
outlet.
Do not open the amplifier or attempt to modify or repair it yourself. Refer all servicing to a qualified
technician.

Introduction
ELECTRIC POWER
1 Power Sources - Connect this unit only to power sources specified in the Operating Instructions, and
as marked on the unit.
2 Polarization - As a safety feature, some units are equipped with polarized AC power plugs which can
only be inserted one way into a power outlet. If it is difficult or impossible to insert the AC power plug
into an outlet, turn the plug over and try again. If it still does not easily insert into the outlet, please call
a qualified service technician to service or replace the outlet. To avoid defeating the safety feature of
the polarized plug, do not force it into a power outlet.
3 AC power cord - When disconnecting the AC power cord, pull it out by the AC power plug. Do not
pull the cord itself.
· Never handle the AC power plug with wet hands, as this could result in fire or shock.
· Power cords should be routed to avoid being severely bent, pinched, or walked upon. Pay particular
attention to the cord from the unit to the power socket.
·Avoid overloading AC outlets and extension cords beyond their capacity, as this could result in fire
or shock.
4 Extension cord - To help prevent electric shock, do not use a polarized AC power plug with an
extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the polarized plug can be completely inserted to
prevent exposure of the blades of the plug.
5 When not in use - Unplug the AC power cord from the AC outlet if the unit will not be used for
several months or more. When the cord is plugged in, a small amount of current continues to flow to
the unit, even when the power is turned off.
