• Do not attempt to service the NM200 yourself as opening
or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage
or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an
equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the
product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to
constitute a risk of shock to persons.
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to the presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the product.
• Locate the system away from heat sources such as radiators,
heat registers, stoves, or other heat producing products.
• Do not locate the NM200 master or remote stations in an
outside wall.
• Do not locate the NM200 to moisture. Doing so can create
fire or shock hazards and void the warranty.
• Do not place the NM200 master or remote stations in any
wall cavity with any other electrical wiring in the cavity.
• Install the NM200 system after the application of the wall
covering material.
• Do not expose the outdoor remote station speakers to
significant water contact. The outdoor remote speakers are
weatherproof but not water proof. Continuous direct water
exposure will cause system problems.

• Do not connect CAT5 wire if you are unsure of its termination
point. Connecting a door station to a remote station may
result in system damage.
• Do ensure that all rough-in instructions have been followed
before power is applied to the NM200 system.
• Do not splice cables. Splices are unreliable and defeat signal
isolation properties of the cable.
• Do not attach devices unauthorized for use with this system.
Authorized devices include:
Audio components connected via a line level input
NC300 6-disc CD player
• If extra cables have been run for future speaker additions,
care must be taken to ensure these cables are not connected
to the NM200 master unit. Un-terminated cables (no station)
connected to the NM200 master may cause electronic
feedback that will damage the master unit.
• Do not over-tighten the screws for the remote stations or the
master as the plastic face panels may crack or strip out.
• Use only NuTone certified replacement parts and have them
installed by a qualified dealer or installer. Unauthorized
substitutions can result in fire, electric shock, or other
hazards.
• Upon completion of any service or product repair, have
the dealer or installer conduct a safety check to ensure the
system is in proper operating condition.
• Use only a damp cloth to clean the NM200 master and remote
stations. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
