Important Safety Instructions
Please read all of these instructions and save
them for later reference before connecting
the DC power adapter to the mains and
powering up Nero.
To prevent electrical shock and fire hazard
follow all instructions on the 12VDC power
supply. Nero itself does not operate with any
high voltage mains supply inside the unit but
appropriate safety measures should still be
adhered to regarding the AC/DC supply.
Please ensure you only use the included Nero
power supply. We cannot recommend the
usage of third party power supplies. In the
event of a power supply failure do not open
the 12VDC supply. If required, please contact
Audient support so that a suitable replacement
can be sourced.
Nero utilises an external switch-mode power
supply that is very quiet and rated at 2A. This
switch-mode design will accept any A.C
line voltage from 100v to 240v @ 50/60Hz.
Therefore the unit will work anywhere in the
world but please ensure your A.C mains line
voltage is within this specification.
Consult a qualified technician if you suspect
diculties. Do not attempt to tamper with the
power supply or mains voltages - HAZARDOUS
TO HEALTH. Ensure that the appropriate
international pin adapter is fitted to the power
supply before insertion into the mains socket.

Declaration of Conformities
We, Audient Ltd, Aspect House, Herriard, Hampshire, RG25 2PN, UK,
01256 381944, declare under our sole responsibility that the product Nero complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference,
2. This device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation
We, Audient Ltd, declare that the product, Nero, to which this declaration
relates, is in material conformity with the appropriate CE standards and directives
for an audio product designed for consumer use.
Setup Diagrams
Audient Ltd has conformed where applicable, to the European Union’s Directive
2002/95/EC on Restrictions of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) as well as the
following sections of California law which refer to RoHS, namely sections 25214.10,
25214.10.2, and 58012, Health and Safety Code; Section 42475.2, Public Resources
Please note that Audient Nero is exempt from the EC 1275/2008 power
management requirement for the following reason:
Nero is designed with the analogue line inputs being the primary functional input
of the device. When an input device is connected, Nero must be active to wait
for a signal. During a recording or mixing session it can be a long time until audio
is actually played. If Nero were to go into a standby mode or similar, this would
cause a disruption to a recording session as the user would expect the unit to be
operational even if the input is not being actively used.
