User manual NAIM FLATCAP 2

[. . . ] The NAP 6-50 is designed to be tolerant of both a wide variety of cable types, and cable runs well in excess of 20m. The loudspeaker connectors supplied with all Naim amplifiers and loudspeakers have been specifically designed to make a robust mechanical connection. It is essential that these are used in order to comply with current European safety regulations. All the plugs and sockets supplied with your Naim equipment have been chosen because they make the best possible connection for their purpose. [. . . ] Do not wire voltage dependent resistors or noise suppressors into mains plugs. They degrade the mains supply and the sound. 3. 4 siting the equipment Power supplies and amplifiers should be located a reasonable distance away from other equipment. This separation will stop transformer radiation causing hum audible from the loudspeakers. The maximum separation distance for connected equipment is that allowed by the standard interconnect lead. Ensure that your equipment rack or table can easily support the weight and is stable. 3. 5 if you have a problem Legal consumer protection varies from country to country. In most territories a dealer must be prepared to take back any Naim equipment he has sold you if he cannot make it work to your satisfaction in your own home. A problem may be due to a fault in any part of the system or its installation so it is essential to make full use of your local dealer's diagnostic skills on site. Please contact your local distributor, or Naim at the address in the back of this manual, if any difficulties cannot be resolved. Some Naim equipment is made in special versions for different territories and this makes it impracticable to arrange international guarantees. Please establish the guarantee arrangements with your own dealer at the time of sale. It is essential that repairs and updates are only carried out by an authorised Naim dealer, or at the factory by Naim itself. Many components are made, tested or matched specially for Naim and appropriate replacements are often unobtainable from non-specialist sources. IMPORTANT In order to comply with current European safety regulations it is essential that the Naim loudspeaker connectors supplied with amplifiers and loudspeakers are used. Do not under any circumstances allow anyone to modify your Naim equipment without first checking with the factory, your dealer, or your distributor. For your own safety do not under any circumstances open Naim equipment without first disconnecting the mains. The following label is attached to all mains powered equipment: 4 Warnings Naim equipment is designed to offer the finest sound quality that can be achieved avoiding compromise wherever possible. The material that follows contains advice specifically related to Naim equipment as well as more general warnings about the use of domestic audio products. The transformers in Naim power amplifiers and power supplies may sometimes make a mechanical noise caused by distortion of the mains waveform. Naim transformers are large in size and have heavy gauge secondary windings making them relatively sensitive to such distortion. A separate mains circuit for your hi-fi system may reduce the effect while also giving an overall improvement in sound quality. It may be necessary however to take account of mechanical transformer noise when siting your equipment. WA R N I N G THIS APPARATUS MUST BE EARTHED 2 Introduction In some circumstances, depending on where you live and the earthing arrangements in your home, you may experience radio frequency interference. [. . . ] Considerable shock hazard exists if the cut-off plug is inserted into a mains outlet. 5. 3 fuse carrier Should the plug fuse carrier be damaged or lost, the correct replacement must be obtained from your dealer, or from Naim Audio direct. Do not use the plug until the fuse carrier is replaced. 5. 4 plug fuses Replace only with ASTA or BS 1362 approved fuses. NOTE This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the relevant EMC and Safety Standards, and, where applicable, also complies 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 and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. [. . . ]
