3. INSTALLATION
The main consideration to be taken when looking for the best setup location for the NUO4.0 has to be the
maximum commodity for the user and the easiness for realizing the necessary
connections.
The NUO4.0 has been basically designed as an on desk mixer and its usual
location will be between two turntables or CD players. The mixer is 37 cm
(14.57") deep and 32 cm (12.6") wide.
Using the metallic side panel kit (optionally available) you may fix your NUO4.0
directly on a support surface or on those side panels which also allow you to
skew it. The "NUORAKI" metallic holders allow you to install the mixer in a
standard 19" rack.
Because of the high gain of the PHONO and MICRO inputs, always try to place the mixer as far away as possible
from noise sources (dimmers, engines, etc.) and mains wires. For the very same reason, and under any
circumstance, you should never remove the unit's metallic cover.
The power consumption of the NUO4.0 is very low, so they do not need any cooling, but you should avoid extreme
temperatures and the atmosphere should be as dry and dust free as possible.
The NUO4.0 operates now with a new universal input power supply “Switching Power Supply” and can perfectly
works without any internal modification from 90V to 264V – 47 to 63Hz. Make sure that the mains-wire is far away
from the signal-cables in order to avoid any possible audio hum.
In order to protect the unit from an eventual electrical overload it carries a T 0.5A fuse. Should it ever blow up,
unplug the unit from mains and replace it with an identical one. If the new fuse blows again contact immediately
with our authorized technical service.
ATTENTION: NEVER SHORT-CIRCUIT THE SECURITY PATH NOR USE A HIGHER VALUE FUSE.
CAUTION: Fuse substitutions have to be performed by a qualified technician.
