USING THE SR 8 REMOTE CONTROL

The SR 8 remote control handset handles the key functions of the C 725BEE as well as other NAD Stereo
Receivers, Integrated Amplifiers and Preamplifiers. It has additional controls to remotely operate NAD CD
Players, AM/FM Tuners and dedicated AM/FM/DAB Tuners. It will operate up to a distance of 23ft (7m).
Alkaline batteries are recommended for maximum operating life. Two AAA batteries should be fitted in the
battery compartment at the rear of the Remote Control handset. When replacing batteries, check that they
have been put in the right way round, as indicated on the base of the battery compartment.

When a command from the remote control is received, the Standby LED indicator will blink. Note that
the indicator may also blink when receiving commands not necessarily for the C 725BEE but for other
components in the system. Please refer to previous sections of the manual for a full description of
individual functions.

NOTE

The remote control handset supplied with the C 725BEE is of a universal NAD type, designed to
operate several NAD models. Some buttons are applicable only to specific NAD models. Contact
your dealer or NAD audio specialist for assistance.

1 power on & off:

The SR 8 remote has a separate ON and OFF button. Press the ON button

to switch the unit from Standby to operating mode. Press the OFF button to switch the unit to
Standby mode.

2 device Selector:

A Device Selector button determines only what component the SR 8 will

command; it does not perform any function on the receiver. Press desired Device Selector button
for the applicable buttons to be directed to a “page” of commands relevant to the selected device.
Upon selecting a Device, you can now press the corresponding SR 8 control buttons applicable for
the selected Device.

3 input SelectorS:

Refer to the corresponding labels printed in the remote control faceplate

and their respective assigned buttons to make use of these functions. Set the DEVICE SELECTOR
to “AMP” in order to gain access to these buttons. The input selector buttons perform the same
functions as the buttons labeled the same on the front panel.

4 numeric keYS:

The numeric keys allow for direct input of tracks for CD players, and direct

channel/preset access for tuners and receivers.

5 Sleep:

Switch off the NAD Receiver or Tuner after a preset number of minutes.

Sleep mode

The Sleep Mode timer will switch the C 725BEE to Standby mode automatically after a preset number of
minutes. Pressing the SR 8’s [SLEEP] button once will display the setting of the sleep time increment. Pressing
the SR 8’s [SLEEP] button a second time within a 3-second period will change the sleep time increment in
15-minute intervals, after which time the C 725BEE will automatically switch into Standby mode.

To adjust the sleep delay, press the SR 8’s [SLEEP] button twice; first to display the sleep time
increment, and a second time to change the sleep time increment. The sleep time increment and a
“SLEEP” icon will continuously display on the C 725BEE’s front panel Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD).
Each consecutive press increases the sleep time in 15-minute increments from 15 to 90 minutes. To
cancel the sleep mode, continue pressing the SR 8’s [SLEEP] button until “Sleep Off” displays on the
VFD. Switching the C 725BEE to standby from either the SR 8’s OFF or the C 725BEE’s Standby button
will also cancel the sleep mode.

6 mute:

Press the [MUTE] button to temporarily switch OFF the sound to the speakers and

headphones. MUTE mode is indicated by the Standby LED indicator flashing for NAD Integrated
Amplifiers or “Mute” shown in the VFD of NAD Receivers. Mute does not affect recordings made
using the TAPE or RECORD OUT/ZONE 2 outputs but will affect the signal going to the PRE OUT
outputs (if applicable). Press MUTE again to restore sound or by pressing [VOL

] of SR 8.

7 dim (for use with nad Stereo receiver, tuner and cd player):

Reduce, turn off or restore VFD

brightness. Depending on the NAD model, the brightness of the front panel display will vary when
you toggle this button.
