MOON Nova CD Player
Installation Tips
The MOON Nova CD Player should be placed on rigid surfaces to prevent any accidents such as falling
over. It is highly recommended that the unit sit on its own dedicated shelf. It should both be placed in
a location with empty space around it for proper heat dissipation. You should never place another
component on top of this unit. As well, you should avoid placing it near a heat source. This could
compromise the CD Player’s performance and reliability.
Once you have decided on a location for the Nova, you should install the 4 pointed screw-on tips onto
the legs of the CD Player. These tips will easily scratch most surfaces, therefore it’s advisable to follow
these instructions:
1) Place your Nova on a soft surface (i.e. carpet) and carefully turn it so that it rests on its side.
2) Screw one tip onto each of the four cylindrical legs.
3) Carefully move the chassis to it’s pre-determined location.
Included with these tips is a small metal rod, intended for final adjustments (if necessary) by simply
threading it through the tiny hole of each of these tips and then gently turning. These adjustable
screw-on tips serve two purposes: Mechanical grounding of the chassis and compensation for surfaces
that aren’t perfectly level.
Since household dust is an excellent insulator of heat, we suggest that you clean both of the curved
side-mounted heat sinks on a regular basis. A smooth nylon brush with long bristles (i.e. paint brush)
is recommended for this task.
You should make all of your audio signal connections prior to making the AC connection between the
Nova and the AC wall outlet.
Finally, if you have not used a CD Player before, you may be unaware that compact discs are very
easily damaged and must be kep very clean. Always store them in their jewel cases. Dirty or finger-
marked discs will reproduce music poorly. Moreover, the player may even mute parts of a track, or be
unable to find some tracks. If you need to clean a CD remember to use a soft lint-free cloth using a
radial action (i.e. starting from the cen er and aiming towards the edges). Do not attempt to clean a
compact disc using a ro ating motion
