Remote Control Functions

π

Volume:

When the remote has

been properly programmed for a

compatible device, these buttons

may be used to raise or lower the

volume of a TV. Note that they DO

NOT change the volume of the AVR5.

That is done with the

Master Volume

button

μ

.

œ

FM Mode:

Press this button when

the tuner is in use in the FM band to

switch to monaural reception if the

station is weak and noisy. When the

MONO

indicator is on, FM reception

will be monaural regardless of the

strength of the tuned FM station.

(See page 21 for more information.)

®

Transport Controls:

These but-

tons are used to control Play, Play

Forward, Play Reverse, Stop, Pause

and Record functions on compatible

Harman Kardon compact disc players±

changers and cassette tape decks.

When the remote has been pro-

grammed to control an external

device, such as a VCR, DVD or LD,

these buttons may be used to con-

trol the standard Forward, Reverse,

Stop and Pause functions, as well.

(See page 23 for information on

programming the remote.)

ß

Tuning Up/Down:

When the tuner

is in use, these buttons will tune up or

down through the selected frequency

band. A brief (

1

/

2

second) press of

the button will manually tune to the

next frequency increment, while

pressing and holding the button for

a longer period will automatically

tune to the next station with a signal

strong enough for acceptable recep-

tion. These buttons will also control

Fast Forward and Fast Reverse (or

Rewind) for compatible Harman

Kardon compact disc players±

changers and cassette tape decks,

as well as controlling these functions

on a DVD or VCR, if the remote has

been properly programmed.

†

Preset Up/Down:

When the

tuner is in use, these buttons scroll

through the stations that have been

programmed into the AVR5’s memory.

These buttons also control the track

Skip Up and Down on compatible

Harman Kardon compact disc players±

changers as well as controlling the

similar functions on a DVD if the remote

has been properly programmed.

Source Power:

When the remote

has been properly programmed to

control another product, and the

Device Control Selector

∂

for that

device has been pressed, press this

button to turn the product on or off.

V

Numeric Keys:

These buttons

serve as a ten-button numeric key-

pad to enter tuner preset positions.

They are also to be used to select

channel numbers when

TV

or

VCR

has been selected on the remote, or

to select track numbers on a DVD

player, depending on how the

remote has been programmed.

X

Auto Preset:

When the tuner and

FM band have been selected, this

button may be used to automatically

program the tuner presets for all

active stations. To start the auto pre-

set scan, press and hold the button.

Note that the

MEMO

and

PRESET

indi-

cators will flash. After a few seconds,

the tuner will start to “look” for active

stations, as shown by increasing fre-

quency numbers in the Information

Display. Release the button and note

that the tuner will briefly stop at each

active station and add a preset num-

ber to the memory. If the FM tuner

found less the 30 FM stations with

acceptable signal strength, the Auto

Preset tuning will scan two more

cycles or until the remaining vacant

preset memory spaces have been

filled with those found in the first

scan. The scan will stop when all 30

preset memory spaces have been

filled or when three scans through

the band have been completed.

Y

Center:

Use this button to config-

ure the AVR5 for the type of center

channel speaker being used. (See

page 15 for more information.)

Z

Secondary Control Cover:

This

sliding cover normally is in the “up”

position so that it hides the sec-

ondary controls. To access these

controls, place your thumb on the

small recessed area at the top cen-

ter of the control, and gently press

the cover down and towards you.
