MODEL SC6 OPERATION PROCEDURE (Cont.) STEREO INDICATOR LIGHT: A stereo indicator light is located directly behind the FM dial glass and operates in conjunction with the FM STEREOMATIC position of the function switch. The light visually indicates the reproduction of stereo through your receiver. To tune for FM stereo, proceed as follows: 1. Place the function selector switch in the FM STEREOMATIC position. 2. Tune carefully to the desired station, using your tuning meter for maximum deflection. Your stereo indicator light will now glow if you are tuned to a stereo program. SPECIAL TECHNICAL INFORMATION DIAL SCALE: The Dial Scale on the SC6 receiver is marked with three scales--an FM frequency scale (88-108MC), an AM frequency scale (55-160KC), and a logging scale (0-100). Since most FM stations operate on frequencies which are not whole numbers (such as 96MC as compared to 96.3), ideally each megacycle division on the frequency scale should be divided into 10 parts to enable the user to pinpoint the location of the station. This would require a dial scale which would be longer than the front panel. The logging scale, which is divided into 100 equal parts, provides a means of finding your favorite station once you have noted its position on the logging scale. For example, in New York City, WQXR operates on 96.3MC. After locating this station through the use of the frequency scale (between 96 and 98MC), you will find that the pointer falls on 46 on the logging scale. Make a note of this setting and when you next want to tune to WQXR, all that will be necessary will be to set the pointer to 46 on the logging scale. EQUALIZATION: The PHONO positions of the Function Selector automatically select the proper equalization that is required. FUSES: Your receiver is protected by a 2 1/2 amp-3AG fuse. In the event of fuse failure, replace ONLY with the same type used. Replacing with a fuse of a higher rating will not protect the instrument and may result in severe damage. SERVICE: If this instrument fails to perform properly during the first two years after date of purchase, write to the factory for instructions. The factory has many authorized warranty service stations in the United States and you will be directed to the one nearest to you by writing to Customer Service Department, HARMAN-KARDON, Inc., Plainview, N.Y. 11803. DO NOT return this instrument to the factory without authorization.

MODEL
SC6
OPERATION
PROCEDURE
(Cont.)
STEREO
INDICATOR
LIGHT:
A
stereo
indicator
light
is
located
directly
behind
the
FM
dial
glass
and
operates
in
conjunction
with
the
FM
STEREOMATIC
position
of
the
function
switch.
The
light
visually
in-
dicates
the
reproduction
of
stereo
through
your
receiver.
To
tune
for
FM
stereo,
proceed
as
follows:
1.
Place
the
function
selector
switch
in
the
FM
STEREOMATIC
position.
2.
Tune
carefully
to
the
desired
station,
using
your
tuning
meter
for
maximum
deflection.
Your
stereo
indicator
light
will
now
glow
if
you
are
tuned
to
a
stereo
program.
SPECIAL
TECHNICAL
INFORMATION
DIAL
SCALE:
The
Dial
Scale
on
the
SC6
receiver
is
marked
with
three
scales
--an
FM
frequency
scale
(88-108MC),
an
AM
frequency
scale
(55-160KC),
and
a
logging
scale
(0-100).
Since
most
FM
stations
operate
on
frequencies
which
are
not
whole
num-
bers
(such
as
96MC
as
compared
to
96.3),
ideally
each
megacycle
divi-
sion
on
the
frequency
scale
should
be
divided
into
10
parts
to
enable
the
user
to
pinpoint
the
location
of
the
station.
This
would
require
a
dial
scale
which
would
be
longer
than
the
front
panel.
The
logging
scale,
which
is
divided
into
100
equal
parts,
provides
a
means
of
finding
your
favorite
station
once
you
have
noted
its
posi-
tion
on
the
logging
scale.
For
example,
in
New
York
City,
WQXR
oper-
ates
on
96.3MC.
After
locating
this
station
through
the
use
of
the
frequency
scale
(between
96
and
98MC),
you
will
find
that
the
pointer
falls
on
46
on
the
logging
scale.
Make
a
note
of
this
setting
and
when
you
next
want
to
tune
to
WQXR,
all
that
will
be
necessary
will
be
to
set
the
pointer
to
46
on
the
logging
scale.
EQUALIZATION:
The
PHONO
positions
of
the
Function
Selector
automatically
select
the
proper
equalization
that
is
required.
FUSES:
Your
receiver
is
protected
by
a
2
1/2
amp-3AG
fuse.
In
the
event
of
fuse
failure,
replace
ONLY
with
the
same
type
used.
Replacing
with
a
fuse
of
a
higher
rating
will
not
protect
the
instrument
and
may
result
in
severe
damage.
SERVICE:
If
this
instrument
fails
to
perform
properly
during
the
first
two
years
after
date
of
purchase,
write
to
the
factory
for
instructions.
The
factory
has
many
authorized
warranty
service
stations
in
the
United
States
and
you
will
be
directed
to
the
one
nearest
to
you
by
writing
to
Customer
Service
Department,
HARMAN-KARDON,
Inc.,
Plainview,
N.Y.

DO
NOT
return
this
instrument
to
the
factory
without
authorization.
