INPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ELECTRIC POWER
1 Power Sources - Connect this unit only to power sources specified in the Operating Instructions, and
as marked on the unit.
2 Polarization - As a safety feature, some units are equipped with polarized AC power plugs which can
only be inserted one way into a power outlet. If it is difficult or impossible to insert the AC power plug
into an outlet, turn the plug over and try again. If it still does not easily insert into the outlet, please
call a qualified service technician to service or replace the outlet. To avoid defeating the safety feature
of the polarized plug, do not force it into a power outlet.
3 AC power cord - When disconnecting the AC power cord, pull it out by the AC power plug. Do not
pull the cord itself.
· Never handle the AC power plug with wet hands, as this could result in fire or shock.
· Power cords should be routed to avoid being severely bent, pinched, or walked upon. Pay particular
attention to the cord from the unit to the power socket.
· Avoid overloading AC outlets and extension cords beyond their capacity, as this could result in fire
or shock.
4 Extension cord - To help prevent electric shock, do not use a polarized AC power plug with an
extension cord, receptacle, or other outlet unless the polarized plug can be completely inserted to
prevent exposure of the blades of the plug.
5 When not in use - The primary method of isolating the turntable from the mains supply is to
disconnect the mains plug. Ensure that the mains plug remains accessible at all times. Unplug the AC
power cord from the AC outlet if the unit will not be used for several months or more.

Modifications or adjustments to this product, which are not expressly approved by the manufacturer, may
void the user's right or authority to operate this product.

This turntable has been engineered to give extremely good musical reproduction. Inherent in the design
are several features that improve sound quality and focus the manufacturing costs where they are most
needed.
Example: Speed change is achieved by manually moving the drive belt from one pulley to another as
shown below.
The cost saving from the use of manual speed change allows a very expensive low vibration motor with
an accuracy exceeding that of conventional designs to be employed.
TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS
1 Try to mount the turntable on a rigid, level surface. A light shelf screwed to the wall or in an alcove
would be ideal. Avoid mounting on hollow or heavy cabinets, or anything mounted on a wooden
floor.
2 Try to keep the lid closed whilst playing records. This will prevent dust falling onto the records and
make cleaning unnecessary. There may also be a sound improvement.
3 Don't use a record cleaner that works as the record plays, or any cleaners that use water or fluids.
Don't touch the playing surface of records. Visible dust on the record surface is simply brushed aside
by the stylus, and any that collects there can easily be blown away.
4 Try to leave the turntable running during a record playing session. Switch on before the start, and only
switch off after the last record has finished. Changing records whilst the platter revolves is easier than
it sounds!
5 DO NOT lift the centre hub from its bearing. The bearing is factory assembled with a film of thick
lubricant. Disturbance of this can cause serious problems with speed variation and wear.
6 When switching on the turntable, especially at 45rpm, it is recommended to give the platter a quick
spin clockwise as the `ON' switch is pressed. This relieves strain on the motor and belt.
7 No maintenance should be necessary. If the turntable is working well, leave it alone. Some settling of
the anti-vibration feet may cause the turntable to lean backwards slightly after a few months, but this
is nothing to worry about.
8 Don't use any polishes on the turntable or lid. To clean or dust, wipe gently with a soft cotton duster
(slightly damp, only if necessary).
9 The tonearm is automatically earthed (or ground) through the arm cable screening. No other earthing
should be necessary.
10 Save the packing, in case the turntable has to be transported in the future.
11 When the record reaches the end of one side, remember to lift the stylus off the surface of the record
using the lift/lower mechanism.
ENJOY THE MUSIC!

GOLDRING ELEKTRA CARTRIDGE
Your NAD C 555 turntable comes with a factory fitted Goldring Elektra moving magnet cartridge.
When following the setting-up instructions, please note that the optimum tracking weight is 1.7 grams
for the cartridge. The bias adjustor should then be set to the same setting.
Replacement styli are available from your NAD dealer.
ARM WIRING
Blue = LH earth
Green = RH earth
Red = RH signal
White = LH signal
SETTING UP THE CARTRIDGE
With the cartridge fitted using the alignment protractor supplied and the wiring chart (shown left), next
set the tracking force and thrust bias.
First, slide off the plastic protection shroud from the cartridge - carefully! Unclip the arm from its holder
and make sure that the bias adjuster is set to zero, use the balance weight to `float' the stylus about 1mm
clear of a record, then dial inwards with the weight, (1 complete turn = 2g) until the cartridge's tracking
weight is achieved. Finally, set the bias adjuster to the same setting.
