IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
12 Power-Cord Protection - Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely
to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention
to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.
13 Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to
the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection
against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of
grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER
• This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Section 820-40 of
the NEC which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that
the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to
the point of cable entry as practical.
14 Lightning - For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is
left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and
disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to
lightning and power-line surges.
15 Power Lines - An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead
power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines
or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep
from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.
16 Overloading - Do not overload wall outlets, extension cords, or integral convenience
receptacles as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.
17 Object and Liquid Entry - Never push objects of any kind into this product through
openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short-out parts that could result in
a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
18 Damage Requiring Service - Unplug this product from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified
service personnel under the following conditions:
a) When the power-supply cord or plug is damaged.
b) If liquid has been spilled, or objects have fallen into the product.
c) If the product has been exposed to rain or water.
d) If the product does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust only those
controls that are covered by the operating instructions as an improper adjustment of other controls
may result in damage and will often require extensive work by a qualified technician to restore the
product to its normal operation.
e) If the product has been dropped or damaged in any way.
f) when the product exhibits a distinct change in performance-this indicates a need for service.
19 Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are required, be sure the service technician has used
replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have the same characteristics as the original part.
Unauthorised substitutions may result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
20 Safety Check - Upon completion of any service or repairs to this product, ask the service technician
to perform safety checks to determine that the product is in proper operating condition.

In case you simply cannot wait to experience the performance of your new NAD M15 A/V
Surround Sound Preamplifier, we provide the following “Quick Start” instructions to get
you underway. Follow the steps below for connecting your DVD player, TV/monitor, and
multi-channel amplifier to the M15. (see Figure 2 or Figure 3 depending on the type of
TV/monitor used). We strongly advise that all equipment be switched off and have the
power cables disconnected from the AC-power before proceeding.
FOR TV/MONITORS WITH COMPONENT CONNECTIONS (FIGURE 2)
• Connect the M15’s COMPONENT VIDEO OUT Y-CB/PB-CR/PRjack to your TV/monitor’s
corresponding input.
• Connect your DVD player’s Composite output to the M15’s DVD COMPOSITE VIDEO
IN.
FOR TV/MONITORS WITH HDMI CONNECTIONS (FIGURE 3)
• Connect the M15’s HDMI OUT jack to your TV/monitor’s corresponding HDMI input.
• Connect your DVD player’s HDMI output to the M15’s HDMI IN 1 jack.
AUDIO CONNECTIONS (FIGURE 2 OR FIGURE 3)
• Connect the DVD player’s coaxial digital output to the M15’s COAXIAL IN 1 input
.
• Connect the M15’s AUDIO PRE-OUT outputs to your multi-channel amplifier.
• Connect your speakers to the multi-channel amplifier’s outputs, being sure to connect red
to red (“+”) and black to black (“-”), with care to avoid stray wires or strands crossing
between terminals. (Connect center, surround, and surround-back speakers as well, if
you like). If your system includes a powered subwoofer, connect the M15’s AUDIO PRE-
OUT SUBW1 jack to the subwoofer’s line input.
• Now connect all power cables from the equipment to the AC-power.
• Switch on the black rocker main POWER switch on the M15’s rear panel, see Figure 1
(this puts the M15 into Standby mode and illuminates an amber LED to indicate it is
ready to receive remote commands), and then press any of the front panel buttons to
power up the M15. Be sure the multi-channel amplifier and TV / monitor are powered
up, with the correct input selected.
• Start playback of the DVD player. Press the HTRM remote’s AMP DEVICE SELECTOR
button, and then its DVD1 button to select the DVD input. You should hear
multichannel or stereo sound, and see an
image on the TV/monitor. (If one or the
other fails to appear, you may need to use their preamplifier’s on-screen menu
system to check assignment of audio, video, and digital inputs. Enjoy the movie or
music, but be sure to set aside time to read this manual thoroughly, and to set up,
calibrate, and configure your M15 carefully and completely.
Note: Coaxial, HDMI, and video interconnect cables are not supplied. Please contact
your NAD Dealer for supplying the latest high quality interconnect cables
