Introduction

Congratulations on your purchase of a high-quality Insignia product. Your NS-R2001 represents the state of the art in stereo receiver design and is designed for reliable and trouble-free performance.

Safety information

Electric shock warning

CAUTION Risk of Electric Shock Do Not Open
Warnin g
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the cover or back. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
This lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated dangerous voltage within your receiver’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to

Ventilation

Caution
constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.
To prevent fire or electric shock hazard, do not expose this receiver to rain or moisture.
Your receiver should not be exposed to water (dripping or splashing) and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, should be placed on your receiver.
Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with these instructions.
Slots and openings in the cabinet are provided for ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of your receiver and to protect it from over-heating.
The openings should never be blocked by placing your receiver on a bed, sofa, rug, or other similar surface. This receiver should not be placed in a built-in installation such as a bookcase or rack unless correct ventilation is provided or these instructions have been adhered to.

Power cord

Caution
We recommend that most appliances be placed upon a dedicated circuit—a single outlet circuit which powers only that appliance and has no additional outlets or branch circuits. Check the specification page of this manual for power requirements.
Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of these conditions could result in electric shock or fire.
Periodically examine your receiver cord, and if its appearance indicates damage or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of your receiver, and have the cord replaced with an exact replacement part by an authorized service provider.
Protect the power cord from physical or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted, kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall outlets, and the point where the cord exits your receiver.
To disconnect power from the outlet, pull out the plug. When installing your receiver, make sure that the plug is easily accessible.

A grounding type plug has two blades and a third grounding prong. The wide blade or the third prong are provided for your safety. If the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.
10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.
11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.
