INSTALLATION

To ensure years of enjoyment from your NADY AUDIO
MM-15USB mixer, please read and understand this manual
thoroughly before using the unit.

1. INSPECTION

Your NADY AUDIO MM-15USB was carefully packed at the
factory in packaging designed to protect the units in shipment.
Before installing and using your unit, carefully examine the
packaging and all contents for any signs of physical damage that
may have occurred in transit.

[Please note: Nady Systems is not responsible for shipping

Installation

2. POWER CONNECTION

The MM-15USB is designed to operate with the supplied
external power adapter. Please make sure that
the adapter supplied is marked for the correct voltage
in your area (120VAC/60 Hz or 230VAC/50Hz). Power
requirements for electrical equipment differ from area to
area. In new installations and portable sound systems, or
any situation in which the AC power is in question, it is
wise to confirm the voltage and use the appropriate
power adapter unit before connecting it to power sources.
Check to see that the power adapter is set to the voltage for your
area by referring to the table below:

Europe (except UK): 230V, 50Hz
UK and Australia: 240V, 50Hz
USA and Canada: 120V, 60 Hz

For other areas, please check with local authorities.

When ready to operate, connect the switched-off MM-15USB and
power adapter first, then plug the adapter to a power source or
wall outlet. Make sure that the unit is turned off before connecting
to the AC power source to avoid possible loud transients, which
can damage your speakers or your ears. Set the Main Level(21)
fader control to minimum to further reduce the chance of
undesired noise when first powering up. Turn on your MM-15USB
using the rear panel ON/OFF switch.
