Unpacking

The carton and shipping materials used to protect your new system during shipment were specially designed to cushion it from shock and vibration. We suggest that you save the carton and packing materials for use in shipping if you move or if the unit ever needs repair.

To minimize the size of the carton in storage, you may wish to flatten it. You can do it by carefully slitting the tape seams on the carton's bottom and collapsing it. You can store cardboard inserts in the same manner. Packing materials that cannot be collapsed should be saved along with the carton in a plastic bag.

If you do not wish to save the packaging material, note that the carton and other sections of the shipping-protection materials are recyclable. Please respect the environment and discard those materials at a local recycling center.

Remove the protective plastic film from the front-panel lens. Leaving the film in place will affect the performance of your remote control.

  • Do not obstruct the fan vents on the rear panel or ventilation slots on the sides of the unit or place objects directly over or next to them.
  • Do not place the system directly on top of a product that generates excessive heat.
  • Due to the heat generated by the system, there is a remote possibility that the padding on the bottom of the system may leave marks on certain wood or wood-veneer materials. Use caution when placing the system on soft woods or other materials that heat or heavy objects may damage. Some surface finishes may be particularly sensitive to absorbing such marks, due to a variety of factors beyond Harman Kardon's control, including the nature of the finish, cleaning materials used, normal heat and vibration caused by the use of the product, or other factors. Your warranty will not cover this type of damage to furniture, so exercise caution in choosing an installation location for the component and in performing normal maintenance practices.
  • The BDS system requires either a Wi-Fi home network signal or access to a physical Ethernet connection to access certain features such as Apple AirPlay ^® , DLNA ^® , control from the Harman Kardon Remote app, and streaming Internet services.

Verify Line Voltage before Using

Your BDS system has been designed to be used with 100 - 240-volt, 50Hz/60Hz AC current and includes a detachable IEC power cable intended for use in the region where the system is sold. Connection to a line voltage other than that for which the unit is intended can create a safety and fire hazard and may damage the unit. If you have any questions about the voltage requirements for your specific model or about the line voltage in your area, contact your dealer before plugging the unit into a wall outlet.

Moving the System

Before moving the system, first disconnect it from AC power and then remove any interconnection cables to other components.

Cleaning

When the system gets dirty, wipe it with a clean, soft, dry cloth. If necessary, and only after unplugging the AC power cord, wipe it with a soft cloth dampened with mild soapy water, then a fresh cloth with clean water. Wipe it dry immediately with a dry cloth.

IMPORTANT: NEVER use benzene, aerosol cleaners, thinner, alcohol or any other volatile cleaning agent.

Connections

CAUTION: Before making any connections to the BDS system, ensure that the AC cord is unplugged from the system and the AC outlet. Making speaker connections with the system plugged in and turned on could damage the speakers or the BDS system.

Speakers and the BDS system have corresponding (+) and (−) connection terminals.

Most speakers use red to denote the (+) terminal and black for the (−) terminal.

Your BDS system has color-coded speaker terminals:

BDS 280
White left channel (+)
Red right channel (+)
Black (−) on both channels
BDS 580
White front left (+)

Preparing the Remote Control Installing the Batteries

Your system's remote control uses three AAA batteries (supplied). Insert the batteries as shown in the illustration, making sure to observe the correct polarity.

HARMAN KARDON BDS 580 - Preparing the Remote Control Installing the Batteries - 1

text_image Battery installation

Using the Remote Control

When using the remote control, remember to aim it towards the system's front panel. Make sure that no objects, such as furniture, block the remote's view of the system. Bright lights, fluorescent lights, and plasma-video displays may interfere with the function of the remote.

  • The remote control has a range of about 20 feet (6.1m), depending on the lighting conditions.
  • You can use the remote at an angle of up to 30^ to either side of the BDS system.

If the remote seems to operate intermittently, or if pressing a button on the remote does not cause the remote control backlights to light up, make sure that the batteries are inserted correctly. If the remote still operates intermittently, replace all three batteries with new ones.

Programming the Remote Control

In addition to controlling the BDS system, you can program the unit's remote to control one auxiliary (aux) component. The remote is also capable of learning codes directly from other remotes. This ability allows you to combine learned commands with programmed codes, making the remote capable of controlling more than one aux component. Typical aux components would be your TV, a satellite system or a cable system. The remote will control the aux component(s) only when the aux source button has been pressed. Pressing any other source button will put the remote back into the normal BDS system control mode.

To Program the Remote to Control an Aux Component:

  1. Check the set-up codes for the component type (for example, TV or cable box) and its brand in the Aux Component Remote-Control Code List, starting on page 23.

  2. Turn on your auxiliary component.

  3. Short press the aux button and then release it.

NOTE: The remote will remain in the programming mode for 20 seconds; you must perform step 4 within that time period.

  1. Aim the remote towards the component you just turned on and enter a set-up code number from step 1, above. Use the Program (Red) button for the first digit; the Bookmark (green) button for the second digital; the Thumbnail (yellow) button for the third digit; and the Zoom (Blue) button for the last digit. If the code to be entered is "0" you do not need to press the corresponding button; for numbers "1" and above, press the button that number of times. When you have entered all four digits, press the OK button — the component should now turn off.
  2. If the remote control turns the component off in step 4, press the aux button once again to store the set-up code number. To confirm that the code has been saved, the LED indicator will blink three times.

Auto Search Method

If you have tried all of the four digit set-up code numbers listed for your device and it still did not turn off, you should use the following auto search Method.

  1. Turn on the device you would like the BDS remote to control, either manually or with its own remote control.
  2. Short press the aux device button for three seconds; the BDS remote will enter set-up mode.

NOTE: The remote will remain in the programming mode for 20 seconds; you must perform step 3 within that time.

  1. Select the region you are located in and the type of device that you are programming: for a US TV, do not press any of Program (Red), Bookmark (green), and Thumbnail (yellow) or Zoom (Blue) buttons.

• For an EU TV, press the Program (Red) button one (1) time
• For an HDTV, press the Program (Red) button two (2) times
• For a US cable tuner, press the Program (Red) button three (3) times
• For an EU cable tuner, press the Program (Red) button four (4) times
• For a US satellite tuner, press the Program (Red) button five (5) times
• For an EU satellite tuner, press the Program (Red) button six (6) times

  1. Point the BDS remote control toward the device and press the Cursor Up button; each button press sends a power signal for one set-up code number. Continuing to press the Cursor Up button will produce a quick scanning of the set-up code numbers. Release the Cursor Up button as soon as the device turns off. If you go past the correct set-up code number, you can return to it by pressing the Cursor Down button, one code number at a time, until the device turns back on.
  2. If the BDS remote control turns the component off in step 4, press the Aux button once again to store the set-up code number. To confirm that the code has been saved, the LED indicator will blink three times.

Programming Individual Button Codes on the Remote

You can program codes from other component remotes onto the BDS remote's buttons that are shown shaded in the following illustration:

  1. Press and simultaneously hold down the Aux and the Program (Red) buttons on the BDS remote control for at least three seconds. The remote's Aux button will blink once.
  2. Place the BDS system remote and the remote from which you want it to learn codes head-to-head about 1 inch (2.5cm) apart, with their IR transmitter windows facing one other.
  3. Press the button on the BDS remote to which you want to teach a command. (The remote will remain in the learning mode for 20 seconds after the button is pushed.)
  4. Press the button on the other remote that you want to teach to the BDS remote. When the IR code has been received and stored, the Aux button's LED will flash three times, and the BDs system remote will remain in the learning mode, ready to learn another code. If no IR code is received within 20 seconds, the Aux LED will flash rapidly several times, and the remote will exit the learning mode.
  5. Repeat step 3 and step 4 for each command you want to teach the BDS system remote.

NOTE: If the aux button's LED goes out at any time, you will need to begin again from step 2 until it blinks three times.

  1. Press the Aux button once, or wait for 20 seconds to cancel learning program mode.

NOTE: Any previously stored setup code will be erased when program mode is activated.

Channel Control "Punch Through" Commands

After programming the remote to control an auxiliary (aux) component, you can also program it to control the aux component's channel up/down and transport functions (play, pause, etc.) even when the remote is not in the aux control mode. for example, if the remote is programmed to operate your TV in the aux control mode, you can also have the TV's channel +/- functions "punch through" and operate even when the remote is in the Disc, Radio or USB control modes, for example.

NOTE: When this feature is active, TV or satellite channel +/- functions will override any existing channel controls set to that mode.

  1. Press and hold the Source button for the main device the remote will be operating. The button will light up, go dark and then light up again. Release the button.
  2. Select the type of punch-through programming.
    a. For "punch-through" channel control, press the Channel + button.
    b. For "punch-through" transport control, press the play button.
  3. Press the Aux button. The original source button will flash to confirm operation. You can repeat step 1 – step 3 for any of the remote's source buttons (Disc, Radio, etc.).

NOTE: Punch-through channel and transport commands will override the existing commands for those buttons in the source modes you program. To undo Punch-through programming, follow the same steps as above, but press the same source button in step 1 and step 3.

Erasing a Learned Code and Restoring the Original Button Code

  1. Press and simultaneously hold down the Aux and Bookmark (green) buttons on the BDS remote control for at least three seconds. The BDS remote will enter the learning mode after the Aux button LED turns on.
  2. Press and release the remote control button that you want to erase. The aux button's LED will flash three times.
  3. To erase other buttons, press the selected buttons.
  4. To exit the erase mode, press aux button.

Resetting the Remote to Factory Default Condition

  1. Press and simultaneously hold down the Aux and Thumbnail (yellow) buttons on the BDS remote control for at least three seconds.

Troubleshooting

Problems Solutions
The system does not power up (the Power indicator is not lit)Check whether the system's Power cord is properly plugged into the system's AC Power connector.Check that the Power cord is plugged into a working AC outlet. If the outlet is controlled by a switch, make sure the switch is set in the ON position.Check that the system's main power switch (located on the rear panel) is in ON position.
Sound plays through the speakers, but there is no TV pictureCheck the HDMI connection between the system and the TV.Check the HDMI connection or Component Video connection between the source device and the BDS system.Check that the TV is turned on and is set to the proper input source.Unplug the HDMI cable from the TV and plug it back in again.
There is no sound coming from just the subwooferCheck that the subwoofer's Power cord is plugged into a working AC outlet.Check that the subwoofer's power switch is in the ON position.Check that the Subwoofer Level control is not turned all the way down (fully counter clockwise).Check that the audio connection between the system and the subwoofer has been properly made.Check the system's Settings: Configuration menu to make sure that the subwoofer volume has not been set at 10dB.
There is a constant hum in the soundCheck that all input cables are plugged all the way into their connectors.Check that all cables are at least 10 ft (3.3m) from fluorescent lights.Check that all cable connectors are clean. If necessary, wipe them with a cloth slightly moistened with alcohol.Set the subwoofer's power switch to OFF. If the hum goes away, there is a ground loop between the subwoofer and the system. Plugging the subwoofer's power cord into the same AC outlet that the system is plugged into should eliminate the ground loop.
