NOTES ON INSTALLATION
Your NAD C440 should be placed on a firm, level surface. Avoid
placing the unit in direct sunlight, near sources of heat and damp
or in poorly ventilated positions.
It comes with RCA leads for connection to your amplifier. Ensure
that leads and connectors are not damaged in any way and all
connectors are firmly pushed home.
If the unit is not going to be used for some time, disconnect the
plug from the AC socket.
Should water get into your NAD C440, shut off the power to the
unit and remove the plug from the AC socket. Have the unit
inspected by a qualified service technician before attempting to
use it again. Do not remove the cover, there are no user-
serviceable parts inside.
Use a dry soft cloth to clean the unit. If necessary, lightly dampen
the cloth with soapy water. Do not use solutions containing benzol
or other volatile agents.
QUICK START
Use the RCA-to-RCA lead to connect the NAD C440 left & right
outputs to the Tuner Input of your amplifier.
1. Plug in the AC power cord.
2. Connect AM and FM antenna.
3. Connect C440 outputs to amplifier.
4. Press the POWER button (No. 1) to turn on the NAD C440.
5. Press the AM/FM button (No. 2) to select AM or FM reception.
6. Press Search/Preset until “SEARCH” is indicated in the display
to select Search mode.
7. Use TUNE/PRESET to select a station.
REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS
1. AM ANTENNA
An AM loop antenna is supplied with the NAD C440 and is
required for AM reception. To connect the AM antenna, first press
the keys on the Antenna terminals downwards. Insert the bare
antenna wires into the two terminal holes and push the connector
keys upwards again to secure the connection (see fig 2).
Test various positions for the antenna but always ensure the loop
is placed vertically for best reception. Placing the antenna close to
large metal items such as metal shelves or radiators may interfere
with reception.
2. FM ANTENNA
A ribbon wire FM antenna is included and should be connected to
the FM connector at the rear of the unit (120V versions (North
America) should use the ‘balun’ adapter supplied - see fig 1). The
ribbon aerial should be mounted on a vertical surface and placed
so that it forms a ‘T’.
Experiment with placement of the antenna to find the position that
gives the best signal strength and lowest background noise. An
inadequate FM signal normally results in high levels of hiss,
especially in stereo, and interference from external electrical
sources. In areas of poor FM reception, the tuner section’s
performance can be improved by using an externally mounted FM
antenna. A qualified aerial installer will be able to advise and fit a
recommended aerial for your reception conditions.
3. OUTPUT
Using twin RCA-to-RCA leads, connect to the left (white) and right
(red) audio outputs to the ‘Tuner’ input or other line-level input
such as ‘Aux’ input of your amplifier.
4. NAD-LINK IN OUT
The NAD-Link connector is used to pass commands from other
units fitted with NAD-Link connectors. This allows centralised
control of a complete system, and also allows some of the basic
functions of the NAD C440 to be controlled using a NAD-linked
amplifier’s remote control or gives system control from more than
one room. To function with such other units, connect the Tuner’s
NAD-Link IN to the NAD-Link Out on the other unit. NAD-Link
connectors can be daisy-chained, IN to OUT, so that a whole system
can be controlled from the remote control facilities of one unit.
5. AC LINE CORD
Plug the AC power cord into a live AC wall socket or to an AC
convenience outlet at the rear of your amplifier.
FRONT PANEL CONTROLS
1. POWER ON/OFF
POWER switches the tuner on or off. Pressing the power switch
turns the Tuner on, indicated by the Display Panel becoming
active. Pressing the POWER button again will switch the unit off.
The C440 uses a memory back-up system to store Preset
information. This information is retained for several weeks, even
if the unit is switched off completely or unplugged.
NOTE: When switching power On, the C440 will go back to the
station last tuned to before the unit was turned off. This will allow
you to make timer recordings using an external timer and
recorder.
2. AM/FM
The AM/FM button switches the tuner from the AM band to the FM
band and vice-versa. The Display Panel shows the frequency of the
tuned station and which band is selected. The FM tuning is in
0.025 MHz increments, AM tuning is in 9 kHz or 10 kHz
increments, depending on the version.
3. BANK
Pressing Bank switches between the C440’s three Preset Memory
Banks (A, B or C). Each of these banks can hold up to 10 Preset
stations. These Banks can contain a mix of AM or FM stations
each. The Bank selected is shown in the Display Panel. You can
use the banks to sort your Presets, for instance by station type
(Bank A for rock/pop; Bank B for Classical music; Bank C for
Jazz). Refer to the separate chapter “Storing, recalling and naming
Presets” for more information.
