to reduce tHe risk of fire, electric sHock, or
iNjury to persoNs, observe tHe folloWiNg:
1. Read all instructions carefully before installing or using the
NM100 System.
2. The NM100 must be installed by a qualified dealer or installer,
and must conform to all local building and electrical codes.
3. For continued protection against risk of fire replace the fuse
in the power switch module only with the same type 3 Amp,
250 Volt fuse.
4. Adhere to all warnings on the NM100 and in these instructions.
Follow all operating and installation instructions.

• Do not attempt to service the NM100 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 NM100 master or remote stations in an
outside wall.
• Do not expose the NM100 to moisture. Doing so can create
fire or shock hazards and void the warranty.
• Do not place the NM100 master or remote stations in any
wall cavity with any other electrical wiring in the cavity.
• I nstall the NM100 system after 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 waterproof. Continuous direct water
exposure will cause system problems.
• Do not connect a remote or door station wire if you are
unsure of its terminating 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 NM100 system.
• Do not splice cables. Splices are unreliable and defeat the
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 player
• If extra cables have been run for future speaker additions,
care must be taken to ensure these cables are not connected
to the NM100 master unit. Un-terminated cables (no station)
connected to the NM100 master may cause electrical
feedback that will damage the master station.
• Do not over-tighten the screws for the remote stations or
master as the plastic face panels may crack or strip out.
• Use only NuTone certified replacement parts and have
them installed by a NuTone 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 NM100 master and remote
stations. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
cautioN: WiriNg
• A qualified electrician must run a 120V AC line to the NM100
retrofit transformers.
• Individual wire runs should not exceed more than 350 FEET
of wire from any single remote station to the NM100 master
or 1000 total feet for the entire system.
• Label all wiring runs. Connecting the wires to the NM100
master, remote station or door stations incorrectly may result
in system damage.
• Run a single cable from the master unit location to each
remote station and door station in a "home run" fashion. Do
not loop cable from one remote station to another.
• Do not staple cables. Staples cause shorts.
• Do not splice cables. Splices are unreliable and defeat the
signal isolation properties of the cables.
• Do not run electrical wires through the rough-ins. If you
encounter 120VAC wires running through a rough-in during
a retrofit you must have a qualified electrician rerun those
wires around the rough-in.
