IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Verify Line Voltage Before Use

The AVR 1510S has been designed for use with 120-volt alternating current (AC). The AVR 151S has been designed for use with 220 - 240-volt AC. Connection to a line voltage other than that for which your receiver 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 selling dealer before plugging the unit into a wall outlet.

Do Not Use Extension Cords

To avoid safety hazards, use only the power cord supplied with your unit. We do not recommend that extension cords be used with this product. As with all electrical devices, do not run power cords under rugs or carpets, or place heavy objects on them. Damaged power cords should be replaced immediately by an authorized service center with a cord meeting factory specifications.

Handle the AC Power Cord Gently

When disconnecting the power cord from an AC outlet, always pull the plug; never pull the cord. If you do not intend to use your AVR for any considerable length of time, disconnect the plug from the AC outlet.

Do Not Open the Cabinet

There are no user-serviceable components inside this product. Opening the cabinet may present a shock hazard, and any modification to the product will void your warranty. If water or any metal object such as a paper clip, wire or staple accidentally falls inside the unit, disconnect it from the AC power source immediately, and consult an authorized service center.

CATV or Antenna Grounding (AVR 1510S)

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to this product, be certain that it is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and static charges. Section 810 of the United States National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and requirements of the grounding electrode.

NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER: This reminder is provided to call the CATV (cable TV) system installer's attention to article 820-40 of the NEC, which provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as possible.

Place the AVR

• Place the AVR on a firm and level surface. Be certain that the surface and any mounting hardware can support the AVR's weight.
• Provide proper space above and below the AVR for ventilation. Recommended clearance distances are 30cm above the unit, 30cm behind the unit and 30cm on each side of the unit.
• If you install the AVR in a cabinet or other enclosed area, provide cooling air within the cabinet. Under some circumstances, a fan may be required.
• Do not obstruct the ventilation slots on the top of the AVR or place objects directly over them.
• Do not place the AVR directly on a carpeted surface.
• Do not place the AVR in moist or humid locations, in extremely hot or cold locations, in areas near heaters or heat registers, or in direct sunlight.

Introduction to Home Theater

This introductory section will help you to familiarize yourself with some basic concepts unique to multichannel surround-sound receivers, which will make it easier for you to set up and operate your AVR.

Typical Home Theater System

A home theater typically includes an audio/video receiver, which controls the system and supplies amplification for the loudspeakers; a disc player; a source component for television broadcasts (cable box, satellite dish receiver, HDTV tuner or antenna connected to the TV); a TV or video display; and multiple loudspeakers.

Multichannel Audio

The main benefit of a home theater system is its ability to produce “surround sound.” Surround sound uses multiple speakers and amplifier channels to immerse you in the audio/video presentation for a dramatically increased sense of realism.

Your AVR may have up to five main speakers connected directly to it, plus a subwoofer. Each main speaker is powered by its own amplifier channel inside the AVR. A system with more than two speakers is called a multichannel system. The different main speaker types in a home theater system are:

Front Left and Right: The front left and right speakers are used as in a two-channel system. In many surround-sound modes, these speakers are secondary, while the main action, especially dialogue, is reproduced by the center speaker.

Center: When you are watching movies and television programs, the center speaker reproduces most of the dialogue and other soundtrack information, anchoring it with the picture. When you are listening to a musical program, the center speaker helps to create a seamless front soundstage, creating a realistic “you-are-there” listening experience.

Surround Left and Right: The surround left and right speakers produce ambient sounds that help create a realistic and immersive surround-sound environment. They also help recreate directional sound effects such as aircraft flyovers.

Many people expect the surround speakers to play as loudly as the front speakers. Although you will calibrate all of the speakers in your system to sound equally loud at the listening position, most artists use the surround speakers for ambient effects only, and they create their programs to steer relatively little sound to these speakers.

Subwoofer: A subwoofer is designed to play only the lowest frequencies (the deep bass). It augments smaller, limited-range main speakers that are usually used for the other channels. Many digital-format programs, such as movies recorded in Dolby Digital, contain a low-frequency effects (LFE) channel that is directed to the subwoofer. The LFE channel packs the punch of a rumbling train or airplane, or the power of an explosion, adding realism and excitement to your home theater.

Surround Modes

There are different theories as to the best way to present surround sound and to distribute each audio channel's sounds to the surround-sound system's speakers. A variety of algorithms have been developed in an effort to recreate the way we hear sounds in the real world, providing you with a rich variety of options. Several companies have developed different surround-sound technologies, all of which can be accurately reproduced by your AVR:

• Dolby Laboratories: Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital EX.
• DTS: DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS, DTS-ES (Discrete and Matrix), DTS Neo:6 ^ , DTS 96/24 ^ .
• HARMAN International: Logic 7 ^® , HARMAN virtual speaker, HARMAN headphone.
• Stereo Modes: 2CH Stereo and 5CH Stereo.

Appendix Table A8, on page 36, contains detailed explanations of the different surround-sound options available on your AVR. Digital surround-sound modes, such as the Dolby Digital and DTS modes, are available only on specially encoded programs, such as those available via HDTV, DVD and Blu-ray Disc media and digital cable or satellite television. Other surround modes may be used with digital and analog signals to create a different surround presentation or to use a different number of speakers. Surround-mode selection depends upon the number of speakers in your system, the program you are watching or listening to, and your personal tastes.

Place Your Speakers

Determine the locations for your system's speakers according to their manufacturer's directions and the layout of your listening room. Use the illustrations below as a guide.

To create the most realistic surround-sound environment possible, you should place your speakers in a circle with the listening position at its center. You should angle each speaker so it directly faces the listening position. Use the diagram below as a guide.

TV C FL 20° 30° SUB FR 110° 110° SL SR

Placing the Left, Center and Right Speakers

Place the center speaker either on top of, below or mounted on the wall above or below the TV or video display screen. Place the front left and right speakers along the circle, about 30 degrees from the center speaker and angled toward the listener.

Place the front left, front right and center speakers at the same height, preferably at about the same height as the listener's ears. The center speaker should be no more than 2 feet (0.6m) above or below the left/right speakers. If you're using only two speakers with your AVR, place them in the front left and right positions.

Placing the Surround Speakers

You should place the left and right surround speakers approximately 110 degrees from the center speaker, slightly behind and angled toward the listener. Alternatively, place them behind the listener, with each surround speaker facing the opposite-side front speaker. You should place the surround speakers 2 feet - 6 feet (0.6m - 1.8m) higher than the listener's ears.

NOTE: Your receiver will sound its best when the same model or brand of loudspeaker is used for all positions.

Placing the Subwoofer

Because a room's shape and volume can have a dramatic effect on a subwoofer's performance, it is best to experiment with placement so that you will find the location that produces the best results in your particular listening room. With that in mind, these rules will help you get started:

• Placing the subwoofer next to a wall generally will increase the amount of bass in the room.
• Placing the subwoofer in a corner generally will maximize the amount of bass in the room.
• In many rooms, placing the subwoofer along the same plane as the left and right speakers can produce the best integration between the sound of the subwoofer and that of the left and right speakers.
• In some rooms, the best performance could even result from placing the subwoofer behind the listening position.

A good way to determine the best location for the subwoofer is by temporarily placing it in the listening position and playing music with strong bass content. Move around to various locations in the room while the system is playing (putting your ears where the subwoofer would be placed), and listen until you find the location where the bass performance is best. Place the subwoofer in that location.

Types of Home Theater System Connections

There are different types of audio and video connections used to connect the AVR to your speakers, your TV or video display, and your source devices. The Consumer Electronics Association has established the CEA® color-coding standard.

Speaker Connections

Speaker cables carry an amplified signal from the AVR's speaker terminals to each loudspeaker. They contain two wire conductors, or leads, that are differentiated in some way, such as with colors or stripes.

The differentiation helps you maintain proper polarity, without which your system's low-frequency performance can suffer. Each speaker is connected to the AVR's speaker-output terminals using two wires, one positive (+) and one negative (−). Always connect the positive terminal on the speaker, which is usually colored red, to the positive terminal on the receiver, which is colored as indicated in the Connection Color Guide Table, above. The negative terminals on the speakers and the AVR are black.

Your AVR uses binding-post speaker terminals for the Front Left/Right speakers that can accept bare-wire cables or banana plugs in addition to spring-clip terminals for the Center and Surround speakers that only accept bare-wire cables. For the spring-clip terminals, press the levers to open the connectors, insert the bare wires into the openings, and release the levers to secure the wires. Bare-wire cables are installed as shown below:

Always connect the colored (+) terminal on the AVR to the (+) terminal on the speaker (usually red), and the black (−) terminal on the AVR to the (−) terminal on the speaker (usually black).

IMPORTANT: Make sure the (+) and (−) bare wires do not touch each other or the other terminal. Touching wires can cause a short circuit that can damage your receiver or amplifier.

Subwoofer Connections

The subwoofer is a speaker dedicated to reproducing only the low (bass) frequencies, which require more power. To obtain the best results, most speaker manufacturers offer powered subwoofers that contain their own amplifiers. Use a single RCA audio cable to make a line-level (non-amplified) connection from the AVR's Subwoofer connector to a corresponding input jack on the subwoofer.

Technical illustration of a mechanical component with two views: top view shows cylindrical shaft and flange, bottom view shows circular end (no text or symbols)

Although the AVR's purple subwoofer output looks similar to a full-range analog audio jack, it is filtered so that only the low frequencies pass through it. Don't connect this output to any device other than a subwoofer.

Source Device Connections

Audio and video signals originate in source devices (components where a playback signal originates) such as your Blu-ray Disc or DVD player, CD player, DVR (digital video recorder) or other recorder, tape deck, game console, cable or satellite television tuner, an iPod or iPhone (connected to the AVR's USB port) or an MP3 player. The AVR's FM/AM tuner also counts as a source, even though no external connections are needed other than the FM and AM antennas. Separate connections are required for the audio and video portions of the source device's signal, except for digital HDMI connections. The types of connections you use will depend upon the capabilities of the source device and of your TV or video display.

Digital Audio Connections – HDMI

There are two types of audio connections – digital and analog. Digital audio signals are required for listening to sources encoded with digital surround modes, such as Dolby Digital and DTS, or for uncompressed PCM digital audio. Your AVR has three types of digital audio connections: HDMI, coaxial and optical. Do not use more than one type of digital audio connection for each source device. However, it's okay to make both analog and digital audio connections to the same source.

Your AVR is equipped with rear-panel HDMI input and output connectors. HDMI technology enables high-definition digital audio and video information to be carried using a single cable, delivering the highest quality picture and sound. If your TV or video display device has an HDMI input connector, make a single HDMI connection from each HDMI-enabled source device to the AVR. Usually, a separate digital audio connection is not required.

The AVR's HDMI output connection contains an Audio Return Channel (ARC) that carries a digital audio signal from your TV or video display back to the AVR. It allows you to listen to HDMI devices that are connected directly to your TV (such as an Internet connection) without making an additional connection from the device to the AVR. The ARC signal is active when the TV source is selected. See System Settings, on page 29, for more information.

The HDMI connector is shaped for easy plug-in (see illustration, below), and HDMI cable runs are limited to about 10 feet (3m). If your video display has a DVI input and is HDCP-compliant, use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter (not included), and make a separate audio connection.

Digital Audio Connections – Coaxial

Coaxial digital audio jacks are usually color-coded in orange. Although they look like standard RCA-type analog jacks, you should not connect coaxial digital audio outputs to analog inputs or vice versa.

Digital Audio Connections – Optical

Optical digital audio connectors are normally covered by a shutter to protect them from dust. The shutter opens as the cable is inserted. Optical input connectors are color-coded using a black shutter.

Technical illustration of a mechanical component with a conical shaft and flanged base, alongside a separate 3D view of a hexagonal bracket (no text or symbols)

Analog Audio Connections

Two-channel analog connections require a stereo audio cable, with one connector for the left channel (white) and one for the right channel (red). These two connectors are attached to each other.

Illustration of two connected audio/video cables with connectors (no text or symbols)

For source devices that have both digital and analog audio outputs, you may make both connections.

Video Connections

Many source devices output both audio and video signals (e.g., Blu-ray Disc, DVD player, cable television box, HDTV tuner, satellite box, VCR, DVR). In addition to an audio connection as described above, make a video connection for each of these source devices. Make only one type of video connection for each device.

Digital Video Connections

If you have already connected a source device to one of the AVR's HDMI input connectors, you have automatically made a video connection for that device, since the HDMI cable carries both digital audio and digital video signals.

Analog Video Connections – Composite Video

Composite video is the most commonly available analog video connection. Both the chrominance (color) and luminance (intensity) components of the video signal are transmitted using a single cable. The jack is usually color-coded yellow and looks like an analog audio jack. Do not connect a composite video jack to an analog audio or coaxial digital audio jack, or vice versa.

Illustration of a cable being inserted into a connector (no text or symbols present)

Radio Connections

Your AVR uses separate terminals for the included FM and AM antennas. The FM antenna uses a 75-ohm F-connector.

Technical illustration of a cylindrical mechanical component with a tapered shaft and threaded end (no text or symbols)

The AM antenna connector uses spring-clip terminals. After assembling the antenna as shown below, press the levers to open the connectors, insert the bare wires into the openings, and release the levers to secure the wires. The antenna wires are not polarized, so you can insert either wire into either connector.

Network Connector

The AVR's Network connector allows you to enjoy Internet radio or content from other DLNA-compatible devices that are connected to the same network. Use a Cat. 5 or Cat. 5E Ethernet cable to connect the AVR's RJ-45 connector to your home network.

Illustration of a USB connector with a cable and port socket (no text or symbols)

USB Port

The AVR can play audio files from an Apple iOS ^® device connected to the USB port, and allows you to control the iOS device via the AVR remote control. The AVR can also play MP3 and WMA audio files from a USB device inserted into the USB port. Insert the connector or device into the USB port oriented so it fits all the way into the port. You may insert or remove the connector or device at any time – there is no installation or ejection procedure.

The USB port on your AVR is also used to perform firmware upgrades. If an upgrade for the AVR's operating system is released in the future, you will be able to download it to the AVR using this port. Complete instructions will be provided at that time.

Diagram showing three connected devices: a rectangular USB port, a small rectangular component, and a cable with a connector (no text or symbols)

IMPORTANT: Do not connect a PC or other USB host/controller to the AVR's USB port, or you may damage both the AVR and the other device.

Making Connections

CAUTION: Before making any connections to the audio/video receiver, ensure that the AVR's AC cord is unplugged from the AC outlet. Making connections with the receiver plugged in and turned on could damage the speakers.

Connect Your Speakers

After you have placed your loudspeakers in the room as explained in Place Your Speakers, on page 10, connect each speaker to its color-coded terminal on the AVR as explained in Speaker Connections, on page 11. Connect the speakers as shown in the illustration.

Connect Your Audio and Video Source Devices

Source devices are components where a playback signal originates, e.g. a Blu-ray Disc™ or DVD player; a cable, satellite or HDTV tuner; etc. Your AVR has several different types of input connectors for your audio and video source devices: HDMI, composite video, optical digital audio, coaxial digital audio and analog audio. The connectors are not labeled for specific types of source devices; they are labeled numerically, so you can connect your devices according to your individual system's makeup.

Your AVR's various source buttons have default assignments to different input connectors (listed in the "Default Connector(s)" column of the table below). For ease of setup, you should connect each source device to the connector where the corresponding default source button is assigned (e.g., connect your Blu-ray Disc player to HDMI 2).

However, you can connect your source devices as you wish and re-assign any of the input connections to any of the Source Buttons listed in the table according to where you actually connect each of your source devices.

As you connect your various source devices, fill out the "Connected Component" column in the table – it will make it easier for you to assign the various source buttons after you have completed making all of the connections. (You will make any changes to the source-button assignments and fill in the "Assigned Connector(s)" column later in the setup process.)

Note: You cannot assign connectors to the Network, Radio, TV and USB source buttons.

Program the Remote to Control Your Source Devices and TV

You can program your AVR remote to control many brands and models of audio/video source devices and TVs. The remote is also ready to operate your iPod or iPhone when it is connected to the AVR's front-panel USB port.

Each of the remote's Source Selector buttons has been preprogrammed to control certain types of source devices:

Cable/Sat: Controls cable TV and satellite TV tuner boxes

Disc: Controls Blu-ray Disc and DVD players

Radio: Controls the AVR's built-in FM/AM tuner

TV: Controls TVs and video displays

USB: Browses compatible media on an Apple iOS device that is connected to, or a USB device that is inserted in the AVR's USB port Note: Does not require programming.

DVR: Controls TiVo® recorders

Game: Controls video-game consoles

Media Server: Controls media servers

Network: Browsers compatible media on DLNA-compatible devices connected to your home network and on vTuner (Internet Radio). Note: Does not require programming.

AUX: Controls HDTV tuner boxes, CD players, VCRs and PVDs.

Although the Source Selector buttons are preprogrammed for the device types listed above, you can reassign a Source Selector button to a different device type. See Reassigning a Source Selector Button for a Different Device Type, on page 19.

Once you have programmed the remote, you can switch the remote's control mode to access the functions for a particular device by pressing the remote's Source Selector button for that device.

Follow these steps to program the Source Selector buttons for your source devices:

1. Turn on the source device you want to program the remote to control.

2. Look up the code numbers for the device in Tables A10 – A20 in the Appendix. Write all the applicable code numbers in a convenient place.

3. Press the Source Selector button for the device and hold it as it glows red, goes dark and glows red again. Then release it. The remote is now in the Programming mode.

NOTE: The remote will remain in the Programming mode for 20 seconds. If you do not complete Step 4 within 20 seconds, the remote will exit the Programming mode, and you will need to repeat Step 3.

1. Aim the remote at the source device and use the remote's Number buttons to enter a code number from Step 1, above.

a) If the device turns off, press the Source Selector button again to save the code. The Source Selector button will flash, and the remote will exit the Programming mode.
b) If the device does not turn off, enter another code number.

c) If you run out of code numbers for a device, you can search through all of the codes in the remote's library for services of its type by pressing the remote's Up button repeatedly until the device turns off. When it does, press the Source Selector button to save the code.

1. Check that other functions control the device correctly. Sometimes manufacturers use the same Power code for several models, while other function codes vary. Repeat this process until you've programmed a satisfactory code set that operates most of the device's functions.
2. If you searched through the remote's code library to find the code, you can find out which code number you have programmed by pressing and holding the Source Selector button to re-enter the Programming Mode. Then press the remote's OK Button, and the Source Selector button will flash in the code sequence. One flash represents "1," two flashes for "2," and so forth. A series of quick flashes represents "0." Record the code number programmed for each device in Table A6 in the Appendix.

Repeat Steps 3 – 6 for each source device you want to control with the AVR remote.

Reassigning a Source Selector Button for a Different Device Type

You can reassign a Source Button to control a different device type (for example, you can program the Media Server button to control a DVD player).

1. Turn on the source device you want the remote to control.
2. Look up the code numbers for the device in Tables A10 – A20 in the Appendix. Write all the applicable code numbers in a convenient place.
3. Press the Source Selector button you want to override and hold it for three seconds as it glows red, goes dark and glows red again. Then release it. The remote is now in the Programming mode.
4. Press the Source Selector button that corresponds to the source device's type (i.e., for a DVD player, press the Blu-ray button). The Source Selector button you pressed in Step 3 will flash once.
5. Aim the remote at the source device and use the remote's Number buttons to enter a code number from Step 2, above.
   a) If the device turns off, press the Source Selector button from Step 3 again to save the code. The Source Selector button will flash, and the remote will exit the Programming mode.
   b) If the device does not turn off, enter another code number.
   c) If you run out of code numbers for a device, you can search through all of the codes in the remote's library for devices of its type by pressing the remote's Up button repeatedly until the device turns off. When it does, press the Source Selector button from Step 3 to save the code.

Most of the button labels on the AVR remote describe each button's function when the remote is used to control the AVR. However, the button may perform a different function when used to control another device. Refer to the Remote Control Function List, Table A9 in the Appendix.

Set Up the AVR

In this section, you will configure the AVR to match your actual system's makeup. Although it's possible to configure the AVR using only the remote and the messages on the AVR's front-panel display, it is easier if you use the on-screen menu system.

Turn On the AVR

Press the front-panel Power button.

Power Button Tan Mod An BDO hamman/karden

Using the On-Screen Menu System

To access the menu system, press the OSD/Menu button on the remote. The OSD/Menu Menu will appear, and if a video source is playing, the menu will automatically re-size so the picture will be visible behind the menu.

MASTER MENU Source Select Source Setup Surround Mode Speaker Setup Network System Setup

NOTE: The actual on-screen menus may differ slightly from the illustrations in this manual.

The Main Menu system consists of six submenus: Source Select, Source Setup, Surround Mode, Speaker Setup, Network and System Setup. Use the Up/Down/Left/Right buttons on the remote or the front panel to navigate the menu system, and press the OK button to select a menu or setting line, or to enter a new setting.

The current menu, setting line or new setting will appear in the front-panel display, as well as on screen.

To return to the previous menu or exit the menu system, press the Back/Exit button. Be certain all settings are correct, as any changes you have made will be retained.

Most users should follow the instructions in this Set Up the AVR section to configure a basic home theater system. You may return to these menus at any time to make additional adjustments, such as those described in the Advanced Functions section, on page 27.

Before beginning the following setup steps, all loudspeakers, a video display and all source devices should be connected. You should be able to turn on the AVR and view the main menu when you press the AVR button. If necessary, reread the Making Connections and Set Up the Remote sections before continuing.

Configure the AVR for Your Speakers

Your AVR is flexible and may be configured to work with most speakers and to compensate for the acoustic characteristics of your room.

Before beginning, place your loudspeakers as explained in the Place Your Speakers section, on page 10, and connect them to the AVR. Consult the owner's guide for the speakers or the manufacturer's Web site for their frequency-range specification. Although you may set the AVR's individual channel levels "by ear," an SPL (sound-pressure level) meter purchased at a local electronics store will provide greater accuracy.

Record your configuration settings in Tables A2 through A7 in the Appendix for easy re-entry after a system reset or the unit has been unplugged for more than four weeks.

Step One – Determine Your Speakers' Crossover Frequencies

Consult the technical specifications for all of your speakers and locate the frequency response, usually given as a range, e.g., 100Hz – 20kHz (±3dB). Write down the lowest frequency that each of your speakers (except the subwoofer) is capable of playing (100Hz in the above example) as the crossover in Table A2 in the Appendix. NOTE: This is not the same as the crossover frequency listed in the speaker's specifications.

The AVR's bass management determines which speakers will be used to play back the low-frequency (bass) portion of the source program. Sending the lowest notes to small satellite speakers will result in bad sound and may even damage the speakers. The highest notes may not be heard at all through the subwoofer.

With proper bass management, the AVR divides the source signal at a crossover frequency. All information above that crossover frequency is played through your system's speakers, and all information below the crossover frequency is played through the subwoofer. This way, each loudspeaker in your system will perform at its best, delivering a more powerful and enjoyable sound experience.

Step Two - Measure the Speaker Distances

Ideally, all of your speakers would be placed in a circle, with the listening position at the center. However, you may have had to place some speakers a little farther away from the listening position than others. Because of this, sounds that are supposed to arrive simultaneously from different speakers may blur, due to different arrival times.

Your AVR provides a Distance adjustment that compensates for these real-world speaker placement differences.

Measure the distance from each speaker to the listening position, and write it down in Table A3 in the Appendix. Even if all of your speakers are the same distance from the listening position, enter your speaker distances as described in Distance, on page 21.

Step Three – Speaker Setup Menu

Now you are ready to program the AVR. Sit in your usual listening position, and make the room as quiet as possible.

With the AVR and video display turned on, press the OSD/Menu button to display the menu system and select the Speaker Setup menu. The Speaker Setup screen will appear.

Speaker Setup Speakers Crossover Distance Output Adjust

NOTE: To save the current settings, press the Back/Exit button.

For best results, adjust the submenus in this order: Speakers, Crossover, Distance and Output Adjust.

Speakers

This selection lets you program the correct setting for each speaker group. The settings in this menu affect the remainder of the speaker setup process and the availability of various surround modes at any time.

Select ON when the speakers are present in the system; select OFF for positions where no speakers are installed. The Front Left & Right setting is always ON and may not be disabled.

1# Speakers Front Left/Right On Center < On > Surr Left/Right On Subwoofer Sub

When you have finished, press the Back/Exit button.

Crossover

After you return to the Speaker Setup menu, navigate to the Crossover line and press the OK button to display the Crossover menu.

Crossover Front Left/Right < 80Hz > Center 80Hz Surr Left/Right 100Hz Subwoofer 80Hz

The AVR will display only those speaker groups you set to On in the Number of Speakers menu.

Refer to Table A2 to see the crossover frequencies that you wrote down for your speakers.

For each speaker group, select one of these eight crossover frequencies: Large, 40Hz, 60Hz, 80Hz, 100Hz, 120Hz, 150Hz or 200Hz. If the speaker's crossover frequency is below 40Hz, select the first option, "Large." This setting doesn't refer to the speaker's physical size but to its frequency response, which is also called "full range."

We recommend that you set the Subwoofer Crossover to the same frequency you used for the Front Left & Right speaker setting. If you set the Front Left & Right speakers to "Large", we recommend that you experiment with different Subwoofer Crossover Frequency settings to find the one that produces the best blend between the subwoofer and Front Left & Right speakers with your system in your room.

Write down the settings in Table A2 in the Appendix.

When you have finished entering the settings, press the Back/Exit button to return to the Speaker Setup menu.

Select the "Speakers" menu again and note the Subwoofer setting: This setting depends upon the Crossover setting you selected for the front left and right speakers.

• If you set the front speakers to a numeric crossover frequency, the subwoofer setting will always be Sub. All low-frequency information will always be sent to the subwoofer. If you don't have a subwoofer, either upgrade to full-range front left and right speakers or add a subwoofer at the earliest opportunity.
• If you set the front left/right speakers to Large, select one of the three following settings for the subwoofer:

L/R+LFE: This setting sends all low-frequency information to the subwoofer, including a) information that would normally be played through the front left and right speakers and b) the special low-frequency effects (LFE) channel information.

OFF: Select this setting when no subwoofer is in use. All low-frequency information will be sent to the front left and right speakers.

LFE: This setting plays low-frequency information contained in the left and right program channels through the front left and right speakers, and directs only the LFE-channel information to the subwoofer.

Distance

As described above in Step Two, when you measured the distances from each of your speakers to the listening position, your AVR provides an adjustment that compensates for the different distances so that the sound from each speaker will reach the listening position at the proper time. This process will improve the clarity and detail of the sound.

On the Speaker Setup menu, move the cursor to the Distance line and press the OK button to display the Adjust Speaker Distance menu.

Distance Front Left Center Front Right Surround Right Surround Left Subwoofer Delay Reset Unit < 10 FT > 10 FT 10 FT 10 FT 10 FT 10 FT Feet

Enter the distance from each speaker to the listening position that you measured in Step Two and recorded in Table A3 in the Appendix (see page 33). Select a speaker, then use the Left/Right buttons to change the measurement. You can enter distances between 0 and 30 feet (9.1m). The default distance for all speakers is 10 feet (3m).

The default unit of measurement is feet. To change the unit to meters, select the Unit line and press the Left or Right button to change the setting.

Step Four – Setting Channel Output Levels

For a conventional stereo receiver, a simple balance control adjusts the stereo imaging by varying the relative loudness of the left and right channels. In a home theater system with up to five main channels plus a subwoofer, achieving proper imaging becomes both more critical and more complex. The goal is to ensure that each channel is heard at the listening position with equal loudness (when signals of equal loudness are played through them).

The Output Adjust menu allows you to calibrate the levels manually, either using the system's built-in test tone or while playing source material.

From the Speaker Setup menu select Output Adjust to display the speaker volume adjustment menu.

Output Adjust Test Tone Front Left Center Front Right Surround Right Surround Left Subwoofer Output Reset Test Tone SEQ Off 0dB 0dB 0dB 0dB 0dB Manual

All of the system's speakers will appear with their current level settings. You can adjust each speaker's level between -10dB and +10dB in 1dB increments.

While making adjustments, you can measure the channel levels in one of these ways:

• Preferably, use a handheld SPL meter set to the C-weighting, slow scale. Adjust each speaker so that the meter reads 75dB when the AVR's built-in test noise is playing.
• By ear. Adjust the levels so that the test tone sounds equally loud to you when it plays through each speaker.

To set your levels using the AVR's internal test tone, select the menu's Test Tone line and use the Left/Right buttons to turn the test tone on. Then select the Test Tone SEQ line to select between Auto and Manual:

Auto: The test tone will automatically circulate to all speakers, as indicated by the highlight bar. Use the Left/Right buttons to adjust the level for any speaker when the test tone is paused there. Use the Up/Down buttons to move the highlight bar to another line, and the test tone will follow the bar. To stop the test tone, use the Up/Down buttons to move the cursor out of the screen's speaker listings area.

Manual: The test tone will stay on the selected speaker until you use the Up/Down buttons to move it to another speaker. Use the Left/Right buttons to adjust the level for the speaker through which the test tone is playing.

If you are using an external source to set your output levels, set Test Tone to Off, use the Up/Down buttons to navigate to each speaker, and use the Left/Right buttons to adjust the speaker's level while the source plays.

NOTE: If you are using a handheld SPL meter with external source material, such as a test disc or an audio selection, play it and adjust the AVR's master volume control until the meter measures 75dB. Then adjust the individual speaker levels.

Output Reset: To reset all levels to their factory defaults of 0dB, scroll down to this line and press the OK button.

When you have finished adjusting the speaker levels, record the settings in Table A2 in the Appendix. Then press the Back/Exit Button.

Notes on Setting Speaker Volumes in Home Theater Systems:

While setting your system's individual speaker volume levels is ultimately up to your personal taste, here are some ideas you may find helpful:

• For films and video-music programs, your overall goal should be to create an enveloping, realistic sound field that draws you into the film or music program without drawing your attention away from the action on the screen.
• For multichannel music recordings, some music producers will create a sound field that places the musicians all around you; others will create a sound field that places the musicians in front of you, with more subtle ambience in the surround speakers (as you would experience in a concert hall).
• In most multi-channel film soundtracks, the surround speakers are not intended to be as loud or as active as the front speakers. Adjusting the surround speakers so they are always as loud as the front speakers could make dialogue difficult to understand and will make some sound effects sound unrealistically loud.

Notes on Setting Subwoofer Volume:

• Sometimes the ideal subwoofer volume setting for music is too loud for films, while the ideal setting for films is too quiet for music. When setting the subwoofer volume, listen to both music and films with strong bass content and find a “middle ground” volume level that works for both.
• If your subwoofer always seems too loud or too quiet, you may want to place it in a different location. Placing the subwoofer in a corner will always tend to increase its bass output, while placing it away from any walls or corners will always tend to reduce its bass output.

Set Up Your Sources

The Source Setup menu lets you assign the correct physical audio and video connections to each source and lets you set many audio and video playback features for each source. IMPORTANT: The "Video In" and "Audio In" settings are not optional and must be adjusted before you use your AVR to enable playback of each source. You can adjust the other settings later. See System Settings, on page 29, for complete information about adjusting all of the Settings menu options.

1. Review the input connections you listed on the Source Buttons and Assigned Connectors table, on page 15. Note what changes (if any) you want to make from the default connector assignments that appear on the list.
2. Turn on your TV and select the TV input where you connected the AVR in Connect Your TV or Video Display, on page 14.
3. Press the remote control's OSD/Menu button. The AVR's OSD setup menu will appear on the TV. (Note: If you have used a composite video connection to your TV, the OSD menus will not appear on your TV. Follow the steps below using the AVR's front-panel display.)

1. Press the remote's Back/Exit button and repeat steps 3 - 6 for the remaining source buttons with connectors you want to re-assign.

Title: This selection lets you change the display name for the source, which is useful if your source's device type is different from the source's preprogrammed name. Use the Up/Down buttons to scroll forward or backward through the alphanumeric characters until the desired character appears, then use the Left/Right buttons to move the cursor to the next or previous position. Move the cursor again to leave a blank space. (Your name can have a maximum of 10 characters.) When you have finished, press the OK Button. The new name will appear on the AVR's front panel and throughout the on-screen menu system.

Tone: This setting determines whether the treble and bass controls are active for the source. When it's set to Off, the tone controls are out of the circuit, with no changes to the sound. When it's set to On, the bass and treble controls are in the circuit.

Treble/Bass: These settings boost or cut the treble or bass frequencies by up to 10dB, in 2dB increments. Use the Left/Right buttons to change the setting. The default setting is 0dB.

Night Mode: This setting activates Night mode for the source, which works with specially encoded Dolby Digital discs or broadcasts. Night mode compresses the audio so that louder passages are reduced in volume to avoid disturbing others, while dialogue remains intelligible. The following settings are available:

• Off: No compression is applied. Loud passages in the program remain as they were recorded.
• Mid: Loud passages in the program are reduced moderately in volume. Dolby True HD stream is compressed automatically as set by the incoming stream.
• Max: Loud passages in the program are reduced more in volume.

Lip Sync: This setting lets you resynchronize the audio and video signals from the source to eliminate a "lip sync" problem. Lip-sync issues can occur when the video portion of a signal undergoes additional processing in either the source device or the video display. Use the Left/Right buttons to delay the audio by up to 180ms. (The active source's video will be visible behind the OSD menu, allowing you to synchronize the audio with the picture.)

You can also make lip sync adjustments without activating the AVR's OSD menus. Pressing the remote's Delay button will display the Lip Sync menu bar on the TV, superimposed at the bottom of the video. Use the Left/Right buttons to delay the audio until it is synchronized with the picture.

Set Up the Network

To play MP3 or WMA media located on DLNA-compatible devices connected to the network or use the AVR's internal Internet radio tuner, the AVR must be connected to your home network.

If your network uses an automatic IP address, you should not have to perform any network setup procedures. Once you connect the AVR to your home network, the network should automatically assign the AVR an IP address, and the AVR should automatically join your network.
If your AVR does not automatically join your network (in which case the AVR will display a "Not Connected" message when you press the Network source button):

1. Press the OSD/Menu button, select System Setup, then select Network.

2. The Network menu will appear.

Network [1/2] IP Configuration Auto > IP Address 192.168.000.026 Subnet Mask 255.255.255.000 Gateway 192.168.000.000 Primary DNS 000.000.000.000 Secondary DNS 000.000.000.000 MAC Address 002261000000 Network Status Connected

1. Select IP Configuration, then press the Right button button twice to cycle the setting from "Auto" to "Manual" and back to "Auto."
2. Scroll down to the bottom of the page, then press down once more. Select "Apply & Save". The AVR will attempt to connect to the network.
3. If the AVR again fails to connect to the network, you may need to enter your network's settings manually. In this case, you may need to obtain your network's settings from your ISP or network administrator. After obtaining your network's settings:

a) Select IP Configuration and use the Left/Right buttons to change the setting to "Manual." The following settings will become active: IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, Primary DNS and Secondary DNS

b) Use the Up/Down buttons to select the correct numbers and make entries for all of these settings.

c) When you have finished, scroll down to the bottom of the page, then press down once more. Select "Apply & Save," and press the OK button. The AVR will refresh the network connection while it remains on. If the AVR cannot connect to the network using the manual settings, contact your ISP or network administrator for assistance.

IMPORTANT: You must select "Apply & Save" for your network settings to take effect.

NOTE: We recommend that you directly connect the AVR to a home-network router so that it can directly access the Internet for Internet radio, or access devices on the network for playback of content stored on the devices (see Listening to Media via Your Home Network, on page 26, for more information).

NOTE: If you have trouble connecting to the network at any time, cycle the AVR into the Off mode, and then turn it back on.

Operating Your AVR

Now that you have installed your components and completed a basic configuration, you are ready to begin enjoying your home theater system.

HARMAN Remote App

For easy control of your AVR with your hand-held device, download the free Harman Kardon Remote app from iTunes App Store for compatible Apple products, or from Google Play for compatible Android powered smartphones.

The Harman Kardon Remote App controls virtually all the functions of AVR 1510S and AVR 151S AVRs that are connected to the same network as the device that has the app installed. With this easy-to-use app you can turn the AVR on or off, select a source, control the volume and virtually any other function. You can also access and navigate all of the AVR's on-screen setup menus.

Controlling the Volume

Adjust the volume either by turning the front-panel Volume knob (clockwise to increase volume or counterclockwise to decrease volume) or by pressing the Volume Up/Down buttons on the remote. The volume is displayed as a negative number of decibels (dB) below the 0dB reference point (-80dB - +10dB).

0dB is the maximum recommended volume for your AVR. Although it's possible to turn the volume to a higher level, doing so may damage your hearing and your speakers. For certain more dynamic audio materials, even 0dB may be too high, allowing for damage to equipment. Use caution with regard to volume levels.

To change the volume level display from the default decibel scale to a 0-to-90 scale, adjust the Volume Units setting in the System Settings menu, as described in System Settings, on page 29.

Muting the Sound

To mute all speakers and the headphones, press the Mute button on the remote. Any recording in progress will not be affected. The MUTE message will appear in the display as a reminder. To restore the sound, press the Mute button again, or adjust the volume.

Listening Through Headphones

Plug the 1/4-inch stereo plug on a pair of headphones into the front-panel Phones jack for private listening. The default HARMAN Headphone mode uses virtual surround processing to emulate the sound of a 5.1-channel speaker system. Press the Surround Modes button on the front panel or the remote to switch to the Headphone Bypass mode, which delivers a conventional two-channel signal to the headphones. No other surround modes are available for the headphones.

NOTE: You will be unable to listen through headphones if the iPod source is selected.

Selecting a Source

There are three different ways to select a source:

• Press the front-panel Source buttons to scroll through the sources.
• Using the on-screen menus, press the OSD/Menu button, highlight "Source Select" and press the OK button. Scroll to the desired source and press the OK button.
• You can directly select any source by pressing its Source Selector button on the remote.

The AVR selects the audio and video inputs assigned to the source, and any other settings you made during setup.

The source name, the audio and video inputs assigned to the source, and the surround mode will appear on the front panel. The source name and active surround mode will also briefly appear on the TV screen.

Video Troubleshooting Tips

If there is no picture:

• Check the source selection and video input assignment.
• Check all connections for a loose or incorrect connection.
• Check the video input selection on the TV/display device.
• Turn off all devices (including the TV, the AVR and any source components).
• Unplug the HDMI cables, starting with the cable between the AVR and the TV, and continuing with the cables between the AVR and each source device.
• Carefully reconnect the cables from the source devices to the AVR. Connect the cable from the AVR to the TV last.
• Turn on the devices in this order: TV, AVR, source devices.

Additional Tips for Troubleshooting HDMI Connections

NOTE: Depending upon the particular components involved, the complexity of the required communication between HDMI components may cause delays of up to a minute in the completion of some actions, such as input switching or switching between SD and HD channels.

Selecting a Surround Mode

Selecting a surround mode can be as simple or sophisticated as your individual system and tastes. Feel free to experiment, and you may find a few favorites for certain sources or program types. You can find more detailed information on surround modes in Audio Processing and Surround Sound, on page 27.

To select a surround mode, press the OSD/Menu button and select Surround Mode. The Surround Mode menu will appear.

Surround Mode Auto Select Virtual Surround Stereo Modes Movie Modes Music Modes Game Modes

Auto Select: For digital programs, such as a movie recorded with a Dolby Digital or DTS soundtrack, the AVR will automatically use the soundtrack's native surround format. For two-channel analog and PCM programs, the AVR uses the Logic 7 Movie or 2CH Stereo mode, depending on the source.

Virtual Surround: When only two main speakers are present in the system, you can use Virtual Surround to create an enhanced soundfield that virtualizes the missing speakers.

Stereo: When you want two-channel playback, select the number of speakers you want to use for playback:

• "2 CH Stereo" uses two speakers.
• "5 CH Stereo" plays the left-channel signal through the front left and surround left speakers, the right-channel signal through the front right and surround right speakers, and a summed mono signal through the center speaker.

Movie: Select from the following when you want a surround mode for movie playback: Logic 7 Movie, DTS Neo:6 Cinema or Dolby Pro Logic II

Music: Select from the following when you want a surround mode for music playback: Logic 7 Music, DTS Neo:6 Music or Dolby Pro Logic II. The Dolby Pro Logic II Music mode allows access to a submenu with some additional settings. See Audio Processing and Surround Sound, on page 27, for more information.

Game: Select from the following when you want a surround mode for game playback: Logic 7 Game, Dolby Pro Logic II Game.

After you select the Surround Mode Category, use the Left/Right buttons to change the surround mode.

You can also change surround mode categories by repeatedly pressing the Surround Mode button on either the remote or the front panel. You can change surround modes within surround mode categories by pressing the Surround Mode Select buttons on the front panel.

See Audio Processing and Surround Sound, on page 27, for more information on surround modes.

Listening to FM and AM Radio

Select the Radio source. A screen similar to the one in the illustration below will appear.

FM FM 88.10MHz 03 2CH Stereo

Use the Up/Down buttons or the Remote's Channel buttons to tune a station as displayed on the front panel and on-screen display.

The AVR defaults to automatic tuning, meaning each press of the Up/Down buttons scans up or down the frequency band until a station with acceptable signal strength is found. To switch to manual tuning, in which each press of the Up/Down buttons steps through a single tuning frequency increment, press the Tuning Mode button on the front panel. Each press of the button toggles between automatic and manual tuning modes. You can also switch between automatic and manual tuning modes by pressing the OK button on the remote control for 3 seconds.

Once you have tuned an FM station, toggling the mode setting also switches the radio between stereo and monaural reception. (Mono reception may improve reception of weaker stations.)

Preset Stations

You can store a total of 30 stations (AM and FM combined) as presets. When you want to save the currently tuned station as a preset, press the remote's Memory button. Use the Number buttons to enter the desired preset number.

There are three ways to tune to a preset station:

• Press the Left/Right buttons.
• Press the remote's Preset Scan button. The AVR will tune to each preset station in order for five seconds. When the desired preset is tuned, press the Preset Scan button again.
• Enter the preset number using the Number buttons. For presets 10 through 30, press 0 before the preset number. For example, to enter preset 21, press 0-2-1.

Auto Store is an alternate method for storing presets automatically. When you select Auto Store, your AVR will scan for any frequencies with good signal and save them as presets automatically. To use Auto Store:

• In either FM or AM source, press the Info/Option button on the AVR's remote control.
• Press OK to select "Auto Store."
• Highlight "Yes" and press "OK."

Your AVR may take several minutes to complete the Auto Store process. Note that performing Auto Store will erase all currently saved preset station.

Advanced Functions

Much of the adjusting and configuration your AVR requires is handled automatically, with little intervention required on your part. You can also customize your AVR to suit your system and your tastes. In this section we will describe some of the more advanced adjustments available to you.

Audio Processing and Surround Sound

Audio signals can be encoded in a variety of formats that can affect not only the quality of the sound but the number of speaker channels and the surround mode. You may also manually select a different surround mode, when available.

Analog Audio Signals

Analog audio signals usually consist of two channels – left and right. Your AVR is able to process two-channel audio signals to produce multichannel surround sound, even when no surround sound has been encoded in the recording. Among the available modes are the Dolby Pro Logic II, Virtual Speaker, DTS Neo:6, Logic 7 and 5 CH Stereo modes. To select one of these modes, press the Surround Modes button.

Digital Audio Signals

Digital audio signals offer greater flexibility and capacity than analog signals, and allow the encoding of discrete channel information directly into the signal. The result is improved sound quality and startling directionality, since each channel's information is transmitted discretely. High-resolution recordings sound extraordinarily distortion-free, especially in the high frequencies.

Surround Modes

Surround-mode selection depends upon the format of the incoming audio signal as well as your personal taste. Although there is never a time when all of the AVR's surround modes are available, there is usually a wide variety of modes available for a given input. Table A8 in the Appendix, on page 36, offers a brief description of each mode and indicates the types of incoming signals or digital bitstreams the mode may be used with. Additional information about the Dolby and DTS modes is available on the companies' Web sites: www.dolby.com and www.dtsonline.com.

When in doubt, check the jacket of your disc for more information on which surround modes are available. Usually, nonessential sections of the disc, such as trailers, extra materials or the disc menu, are available only in Dolby Digital 2.0 (two-channel) or PCM two-channel mode. If the main title is playing and the display shows one of these surround modes, look for an audio or language setup section in the disc's menu. Also, make sure your disc player's audio output is set to the original bitstream rather than two-channel PCM. Stop play and check the player's output setting.

The channels included in a typical 5.1-channel recording are front left, front right, center, surround left, surround right and LFE (low-frequency effects). The LFE channel is denoted as ".1" to represent the fact that it is limited to the low frequencies.

Digital formats include Dolby Digital 2.0 (two channels only), Dolby Digital 5.1, Dolby Digital Plus (7.1), Dolby TrueHD (7.1), DTS-HD High-Resolution Audio (7.1), DTS-HD Master Audio (7.1), DTS 5.1, DTS 96/24 (5.1), 2-channel PCM modes in 32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz or 96kHz, and 5.1 or 7.1 multichannel PCM. (Your AVR will downmix the discrete surround back-channel information in 6.1-channel and 7.1-channel recordings into your system's surround left and surround right channels.)

When the AR receives a digital bitstream, it detects the encoding method and the number of channels, which is displayed briefly as three numbers, separated by slashes (e.g., "3/2/.1").

The first number indicates the number of front channels in the signal: "1" represents a monophonic recording (usually an older program that has been digitally remastered or, more rarely, a modern program for which the director has chosen mono as a special effect). "2" indicates the presence of the left and right channels but no center channel. "3" indicates that all three front channels (left, right and center) are present.

The second number indicates whether any surround channels are present: "0" indicates that no surround information is present. "1" indicates that a matrixed surround signal is present. "2" indicates discrete surround left and right channels. (Bitstreams with discrete surround back left and right channel signals will be indicated by a "4," although the AVR downmixes the surround back-channel information into the surround left and right channels.)

The third number is used for the LFE channel: "0" indicates no LFE channel. ".1" indicates that an LFE channel is present.

Dolby Digital 2.0 signals may include a Dolby Surround flag indicating DS-ON or DS-OFF, depending on whether the two-channel bitstream contains only stereo information or a downmix of a multichannel program that can be decoded by the AVR's Dolby Pro Logic decoder. By default, these signals are played in Dolby Pro Logic II Movie mode.

When a PCM signal is received, the PCM message and the sampling rate (32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz, 96kHz, 176.4kHz or 192kHz) will appear.

When only two channels – left and right – are present, the analog surround modes may be used to decode the signal into multiple channels. If you would prefer a different surround format than the native signal's digital encoding, press the Surround Modes button to display the Surround Modes menu (see Selecting a Surround Mode, on page 24).

The Auto Select option sets the surround mode to the native signal's digital encoding, e.g., Dolby Digital, DTS, Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD Master Audio. For two-channel materials, the AVR defaults to the Logic 7 Movie mode. If you prefer a different surround mode, select the surround-mode category: Virtual Surround, Stereo, Movie, Music or Game. Press the OK button to change the mode.

Each surround-mode category is set to a default surround mode:

• Virtual Surround: Virtual speaker.
- Stereo: 2-CH Stereo.
- Movie: Logic 7 Movie.
• Music: Logic 7 Music.
- Game: Logic 7 Game.

You may select a different mode for each category. Below is a complete list of available surround modes. (The actual surround modes available will depend on the number of speakers in your system.)

• Virtual Surround: Virtual speaker.
- Stereo: 2-CH Stereo or 5-CH Stereo.
- Movie: Logic 7 Movie, DTS Neo:6 Cinema, Dolby Pro Logic II Movie.
- Music: Logic 7 Music, DTS Neo:6 Music, Dolby Pro Logic II Music.
• Game: Logic 7 Game or Dolby Pro Logic II Game.

Once you have programmed the surround mode for each type of audio, select the line from the Surround Modes menu to override the AVR's automatic surround-mode selection. The AVR will use the same surround mode the next time the source is selected.

Dolby PLII Music: Some additional settings are available when you select the Dolby Pro Logic II Music Mode in the Surround Modes menu:

Music Modes < DOLBY PLII MUSIC > Center Width 3 Dimension 0 Panorama Off

Center Width: This setting affects how vocals sound through the three front speakers. A lower number focuses the vocal information tightly on the center channel. Higher numbers (up to 7) broaden the vocal soundstage. Use the Left/Right buttons to adjust.

Dimension: This setting affects the depth of the surround presentation, allowing you to "move" the sound toward the front or rear of the room. The setting of "0" is a neutral default. Setting "F-3" moves the sound toward the front of the room, while setting "R-3" moves the sound toward the rear. Use the Left/Right buttons to adjust it.

Panorama: With the Panorama mode turned on, some of the sound from the front speakers is moved to the surround speakers, creating an enveloping "wraparound" effect. Each press of the OK button toggles the setting On or Off.

Please refer to Table A8 in the Appendix for more information on which surround modes are available with different bitstreams

System Settings

The AVR's System Settings menu lets you customize in what way many of the AVR's features operate. Press the OSD/Menu button and navigate to the System line. Press the OK button to display the System Settings menu.

● System Setup Panel Timeout < Off > Auto Power Off Off Menu Timeout Off Status Message 5s Volume Default Off Devault Vol. Set -25dB HDMI Audio to TU Off HDMI Link Off Software Update

Panel Timeout: This setting allows you to set the AVR's front-panel display to automatically turn off after remaining on for a pre-dertimined time (3 – 10 seconds) each time you use a control. Set this to "Off" to have the display remain on continually.

Auto Power Off: This setting allows you to set the AVR to automatically switch to the Off mode after being in the Sleep mode for a predetermined time (1 - 8 hours) and switch to the Sleep mode after this amount of time if a source with an analog audio input or internal source (FM, AM, USB, iPod, Home Network, vTuner or DMR) is active. See Power Indicator/Power Button, on page 5, for more information.

Menu Timeout: This setting allows you to set the amount of time (20 - 50 seconds) a menu screen will remain on after the last adjustment. Set this to "Off" to have the menus remain on continually until you press the OSD/Menu button.

Status Message: When the AVR is turned on, the volume is adjusted, the source is changed or a change in the input signal is detected, a status message will be displayed on the TV screen. Select how long the message remains visible, from 2 to 10 seconds, with a default of 3 seconds. Select "Off" if you do not wish to see the status messages on the TV screen (they will still appear on the AVR's front-panel message display).

Volume Default and Default Volume Setting: These two settings are used together to program the volume level when you turn on the AVR. Set Volume Default to On, and then set the Default Volume Setting to the desired turn-on volume. When Volume Default is set to Off, the AVR will turn on at the last-used volume setting from the previous listening session.

HDMI Audio to TV: This setting determines whether HDMI audio signals are passed through the HDMI Monitor Out connector to the video display. In normal operation, leave this setting at Off, as audio will be played through the AVR. To use the TV by itself, without the home theater system, turn this setting to On. In this case you will need to mute the TV's speakers (or switch the setting to Off) when using the AVR for audio.

HDMI Link: This setting allows the communication of control information among the HDMI devices in your system. Turn this setting to On to allow control communication between the HDMI devices; turn the setting to Off to forbid control communication. When this setting is set to Off, the TV source audio input is set to Optical. When this setting is set to On, the TV source audio input is set to HDMI ARC.

Software Update: If a software upgrade is released for your AVR, installation instructions will be available in the Product Support section of the Web site or from Harman Kardon customer service. At that time, you may use this submenu to install the upgrade software.

IMPORTANT: During a software upgrade, do not power off the AVR or use any of its controls. Doing so could permanently damage the AVR.

Sleep Timer

The sleep timer sets the AVR to play for up to 90 minutes and then turn off automatically.

Press the Sleep button on the remote, and the time until turn-off will be displayed. Each additional press of the Sleep button decreases the play time by 10 minutes, from 90 to 10 minutes. The SLEEP OFF setting disables the sleep timer.

When the sleep timer has been set, the front-panel display will automatically dim to half brightness.

If you press the Sleep button after the timer has been set, the remaining play time will be displayed. Press the Sleep button again to change the play time.

Processor Reset

If the AVR behaves erratically after a power surge, unplug the AC power cord for at least 3 minutes. Plug the cord back in and turn the AVR on. If this procedure doesn't help, reset the AVR's processor as described below.

NOTE: A processor reset erases all user configurations, including speaker and level settings, and tuner presets. After a reset, reenter all of these settings from your entries in the Appendix worksheets.

To reset the AVR's processor:

1. Press the front-panel Standby/On switch for more than three seconds to turn the AVR off (the Power Indicator will turn amber).

2. Press and hold the front-panel Surround Modes button for at least 5 seconds until the RESET message appears on the front-panel Message Display.

NOTE: After performing a processor reset, wait at least 1 minute before pressing any Source Selector buttons.

If the AVR does not function correctly after a processor reset, contact an authorized Harman Kardon service center for assistance. Authorized service centers may be located by visiting our Web site at www.harmankardon.com.
