ENGLISH NOTES ON INSTALLATION. Your NAD T742 should be placed on a firm, level surface. Avoid placing the unit in direct sunlight or near sources of heat and damp. Allow adequate ventilation. Do not place the unit on a soft surface like a carpet. Do not place it in an enclosed position such a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the air-flow through the ventilation slots. Make sure the unit is switched off before making any connections.

ENGLISH REAR PANEL CONTROLS (FIGURE 1) 1. FM & AM ANTENNA AM ANTENNA - An AM loop antenna is supplied with the T742 and is required for AM reception. Open the clip terminal lever and insert the wire from the antenna. Closing the lever will lock the wire in place (Fig. 5). 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.
SUBWOOFER OUT - Unlike for the full range five channels as described above, there is no power amplifier built-in for an additional subwoofer. The Subwoofer pre-out allows for connection to a sub-bass speaker system with its own external or integrated power amplifier (“active” subwoofers). 7. MONITOR OUT Composite Video and S-Video outputs for connecting a TV or Video Monitor to view video sources connected to DVD to VIDEO 5.
. IR INPUT This input is connected to an output of an infrared receiver. This This remote control input is usually used in custom installations. Ask your dealer or custom isnstaller for further details. ENGLISH 11. AC POWER CORD After you have completed all connections to the amplifier, plug the AC line cord into a “live” wall socket. DEUTSCH For switching Stand-by/Power On of the external component, connect the 12V trigger output of the T742 to the remote component’s DC input jack.
Refer to the separate chapter “Storing and recalling Presets” for more information. 7. PRESET / TUNE The Preset/Tune button toggles between the Preset and Tune mode. When Preset mode is selected, “PRESET” lights up in the display area. Up to 40 Presets, either AM (10 Presets) or FM (30 Presets), can be stored. Refer also to separate chapter “Storing and Recalling Presets” for more information.
ENGLISH The control is also used to adjust various set-up settings and levels for the T742. In conjunction with the SETUP button (No. 17) the speakers size and delay can be adjusted; in conjunction with the Tone Control button (No. 18) the Bass and Treble levels can be adjusted. Refer also to sections “SETUP” and “Tone controls” in this chapter. FRANÇAIS 11.

Dolby Pro Logic is the latest decoder for Dolby Surround.
ENGLISH FRANÇAIS STORING AND RECALLING PRESETS TO STORE A PRESET • Tune to the radio station you wish to enter into a Preset (refer to chapter “Front Panel Controls”; section 8). If the station is transmitting RDS information, the RDS indicator will light up and station initials will be shown in the Display Panel. If a non-RDS station is found, then just the frequency will be shown. • To store that station as a Preset, press MEMORY (No. 6).
NEXT DISC functions with a DVD Changer (NAD T571) to select the next disc loaded in the carousel. Each press of the button advances by one disc. Refer to the NAD DVD player Owner’s Manual for more detailed information on this function. In DVD mode, these keys function as the UP and DOWN ARROW keys used for navigating the various graphical user interface (GUI) menus on both the DVD player and DVD Video discs. Refer to the NAD DVD player Owner’s Manual for more detailed information on this function.
ENGLISH 13. TUNE MODE / RETURN The TUNE MODE button functions the same as the button of the front panel of the T742, switching between the Tune Mode and the Preset Mode. See complete description in the FRONT PANEL CONTROLS section above. In DVD mode this button’s function is determined by the individual DVD disc title being played. Refer to the NAD DVD Player Owner’s Manual for more detailed information on this function. FRANÇAIS 14. OPEN / CLOSE Opens or closes the loading tray of the DVD player. 15.
The ON mode is used when the speaker is active and receives the audio information intended. The OFF mode is used when the speaker is inactive. Audio signals intended for speakers set to the OFF position are redirected to the main speakers. Using a separate centre channel speaker will allow the dialogue to cut through even the biggest sound effects and musical scores. Having the sound spread across three front speakers also stabilizes the stereo image, making the usable listening area much bigger.
ENGLISH FRANÇAIS TIPS FOR SETTING DELAY Measure the distance from the listening position to the centre speaker (dC) and to one of the front speakers (dFL or dFR). Subtract the centre channel distance from the front L or R channel distance. For example, if the front speakers are 12 feet (3.7 m) from the listening position and the centre speaker is 10 feet (3.0 m), the difference is 2 feet (0.6 m). For this example the centre channel delay is set to 2 milliseconds or ms.
NO SOUND ON ONE CHANNEL • • • Speaker not properly connected or damaged.
