Record Ployel Connection A stereo record player has two shielded output leads. If your record player uses a magnetic stereo cartridge, connect to the PHO 1 MAG receptacles, A and B, on the INPUT CHANNEL strip at the rear of the Citation I. If your record player uses a ceramic or crystal stereo cartridge, connect to the PHO 2 receptacles, A and B, marked CER-XTL on the INPUT CHANNEL strip. The additional pair of PHO 2 receptacles, A and B, marked MAG can be used for an additional record player with a magnetic stereo cartridge; however, only one pair of the PHO 2 receptacles can be used at a time. Thus, if you have two record players, one with a ceramic or a crystal cartridge and the other with a magnetic cartridge, the fi rst would be connected to the PHO 2 input receptacles and the second to the PHO 1 receptacles. The choice between the two is then made by means of the FUNCTION switch on the front panel. A monophonic cartridge of the magnetic type can be connected to either the A or B input receptacle of either PI-1O 1 MAG or PHO 2 MAG. Use either of the PHO 2 CER-XTL receptacles for a monophonic cartridge of the ceramic or crystal type. Auxiliary Input Connections A pair of high-level input receptacles, marked AUX on the INPUT CHANNEL strip, is provided for connecting an additional program source. This is for use in more complicated systems where a second tape player, telephone line, or other input source is desired. Power Connections Plug the AC cord into any outlet furnishing 105-125 volts 50 or 60 cycle AC current. Four AC convenience outlets are provided on the rear deck of the Citation I, one being live at all times and three live only when the power switch is on. Plug the power cord of your Citation II (or other basic amplifier) into one of the switched outlets. Plug the power cord of your tuner or tape recorder into either of the other switched outlets. The heavy-duty Citation I power switch will then control the preamplifier and the associated equipment. Plug the power cord of a turntable or record changer into the unswitched receptacle; these devices are best controlled by their own switches, in order to avoid the possibility of flats on idler wheels. Ground Connections It may be desirable to provide a common ground between the Citation I preamplifier and any associated equipment. This can be accomplished by using the screw marked - ground- on the rear deck of the chassis. WARRANTY This warranty applies only to Harman-Kardon factory-wired sets. For the warranty and service policy applicable to Citation kits, see the Kit Construction book. For a period of 90 days following the original date of purchase, all parts supplied with Harman-Kardon Citation units are guaranteed by the manufacturer to be free from defects in material and workmanship when put to normal use and service. This guaranty is specifically limited to the following conditions: (1) To validate the warranty, the warranty card accompanying each unit must be filled out completely and returned to the factory immediately following the date of purchase. (2) Harman-Kardon reserves the right to substitute replacement parts for any which may be found defective. (3) The warranty is effective only as to parts which are defective at the time of sale or become defective as the result of normal operation during the 90 day period following the date of sale. (4) This warranty is limited to those parts which are returned to the factory transportation prepaid, and in the judgment of Harman-Kardon are found defective under the terms of this warranty. This warranty is in lieu of all other warranties, express or implied and of all other obligations on the part of Harman-Kardon. Harman-Kardon neither assumes nor authorizes any one else to assume for it any other liability in connection with the sale of this instrument. 3 NOTE: It is necessary to receive factory authorization before returning a set for repair. Write directly to us describing the specific difficulty, model and serial number of your unit. At times, by performing certain checks on your own you can save the expense of shipping the set to a warranty station or to the factory. We reserve the right to refuse a unit at our factory or warranty station unless previous authorization has been given. 5

Record
Ployel
Connection
A
stereo
record
player
has
two
shielded
output
leads.
If
your
record
player
uses
a
magnetic
stereo
cartridge,
connect
to
the
PHO
1
MAG
receptacles,
A
and
B,
on
the
INPUT
CHANNEL
strip
at
the
rear
of
the
Citation
I.
If
your
record
player
uses
a
ceramic
or
crystal
stereo
cartridge,
connect
to
the
PHO
2
receptacles,
A
and
B,
marked
CER-XTL
on
the
INPUT
CHANNEL
strip.
The
additional
pair
of
PHO
2
receptacles,
A
and
B,
marked
MAG
can
be
used
for
an
additional
record
player
with
a
magnetic
stereo
cartridge;
however,
only
one
pair
of
the
PHO
2
receptacles
can
be
used
at
a
time.
Thus,
if
you
have
two
record
players,
one
with
a
ceramic
or
a
crystal
cartridge
and
the
other
with
a
magnetic
cartridge,
the
fi
rst
would
be
connected
to
the
PHO
2
input
receptacles
and
the
sec-
ond
to
the
PHO
1
receptacles.
The
choice
between
the
two
is
then
made
by
means
of
the
FUNCTION
switch
on
the
front
panel.
A
monophonic
cartridge
of
the
magnetic
type
can
be
connected
to
either
the
A
or
B
input
receptacle
of
either
PI
-1O
1
MAG
or
PHO
2
MAG.
Use
either
of
the
PHO
2
CER-XTL
receptacles
for
a
monophonic
cartridge
of
the
ceramic
or
crystal
type.
Auxiliary
Input
Connections
A
pair
of
high-level
input
receptacles,
marked
AUX
on
the
INPUT
CHANNEL
strip,
is
provided
for
con-
necting
an
additional
program
source.
This
is
for
use
in
more
complicated
systems
where
a
second
tape
player,
telephone
line,
or
other
input
source
is
desired.
Power
Connections
Plug
the
AC
cord
into
any
outlet
furnishing
105-125
volts
50
or
60
cycle
AC
current.
Four
AC
convenience
outlets
are
provided
on
the
rear
deck
of
the
Citation
I,
one
being
live
at
all
times
and
three
live
only
when
the
power
switch
is
on.
Plug
the
power
cord
of
your
Citation
II
(or
other
basic
amplifier)
into
one
of
the
switched
outlets.
Plug
the
power
cord
of
your
tuner
or
tape
recorder
into
either
of
the
other
switched
outlets.
The
heavy-duty
Citation
I
power
switch
will
then
control
the
preamplifier
and
the
associated
equipment.
Plug
the
power
cord
of
a
turntable
or
record
changer
into
the
unswitched
receptacle;
these
devices
are
best
controlled
by
their
own
switches,
in
order
to
avoid
the
possibility
of
flats
on
idler
wheels.
Ground
Connections
It
may
be
desirable
to
provide
a
common
ground
between
the
Citation
I
preamplifier
and
any
associated
equipment.
This
can
be
accomplished
by
using
the
screw
marked
-
ground
-
on
the
rear
deck
of
the
chassis.
