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.
