Harman Kardon AVR 335 Owner's Manual page 11

IMPORTANT NOTE: The AVR 335's remote may be
programmed to control up to eight devices, including
the AVR 335. Before using the remote, it is important to
remember to press the Input Selector Button e
that corresponds to the unit you wish to operate.
In addition, the AVR 335's remote is shipped from
the factory to operate the AVR 335 and most
Harman Kardon CD or DVD players and cassette
decks. The remote is also capable of operating a
wide variety of other products using the control codes
that are part of the remote. Before using the remote
with other products, follow the instructions on pages
37–39 to program the proper codes for the products
in your system.
It is also important to remember that many of the but-
tons on the remote take on different functions, depend-
ing on the product selected using the Device Control
Selectors. The descriptions shown here primarily detail
the functions of the remote when it is used to operate
the AVR 335. (See page 38 for information about
alternate functions for the remote's buttons.)
a Power Off Button: Press this button to place the
AVR 335 or a selected device in the Standby mode.
Note that this will turn off the main room functions, but
if the Multiroom system is activated, it will continue to
function.
b IR Transmitter Window: Point this window
towards the AVR 335 when pressing buttons on the
remote to make certain that infrared commands are
properly received.
c Program Indicator: This three-color indicator is
used to guide you through the process of program-
ming the remote. (See page 38 for information on
programming the remote.)
d Power On Button: Press this button to turn on
the power to a device selected by pressing one of the
Input Selectors e.
e Input Selectors: Pressing one of these buttons
will perform three actions at the same time. First, if the
AVR 335 is not turned on, this will power up the unit.
Next, it will select the source shown on the button as
the input to the AVR 335. Finally, it will switch the
remote control so that it controls the device selected.
After pressing one of these buttons you must press
the AVR Selector Button f again to operate the
AVR 335's functions with the remote.
f AVR Selector: Pressing this button will switch the
remote so that it will operate the AVR 335's functions. If
the AVR 335 is in the Standby mode, it will also turn the
AVR 335 on.
g AM/FM Tuner Select: Press this button to select
the AVR 335's tuner as the listening choice. Pressing
MAIN REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS MAIN REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS
this button when the tuner is already in use will select
between the AM and FM bands.
h Dim Button: Press this button to activate the
Dimmer function, which reduces the brightness of the
front panel display, or turns it off entirely. The first press
of the button shows the default state, which is full bright-
ness by indicating DIMMER FULL in the Lower
Display Line ¯ . Press the button again within five
seconds to reduce the brightness by 50%, as indicated
by DIMMER HALF showing in the Lower
Display Line ¯ . Press the button again within five
seconds and the main display will go completely dark.
Note that this setting is temporary, in that regardless of
any changes, the display will always return to full bright-
ness when the AVR is turned on. In addition, the Power
Indicator 2 will always remain at full brightness
regardless of the setting. This is to remind you that the
AVR is still turned on.
i Test Button: Press this button to begin the
sequence used to manually calibrate the AVR 335's
output levels. (See pages 25 and 32 for more informa-
tion on calibrating the AVR 335.)
j Sleep Button: Press this button to place the unit
in the Sleep mode. After the time shown in the display,
the AVR 335 will automatically go into the Standby
mode. Each press of the button changes the time until
turn-off in the following order:
90 80 70 60
min min min min
40 30 20 10
min min min min
This button is also used to change channels on your
TV when the TV is selected.
When the AVR 335 remote is being programmed with
the codes to operate another device, this button is also
used in the "Auto Search" process. (See page 37 for
more information on programming the remote.)
k DSP Surround Mode Selector: Press this but-
ton to cycle through the DSP, VMAx and Stereo sur-
round modes such as Hall, Theater, VMAx Near and
Far, and Surround Off. This button is also used to tune
channels when the TV is selected using the device
Input Selector e. When the AVR 335 remote is
being programmed with the codes of another device,
this button is also used in the "Auto Search" process.
(See page 37 for more information on programming
the remote.)
l Night Mode: Press this button to activate the
Night mode. This mode is available in specially
encoded digital sources, and it preserves dialogue
(center channel) intelligibility at low volume levels.
m Channel Select Button: This button is used to
start the process of setting the AVR 335's output levels to
an external source. Once this button is pressed, use the
Buttons n to select the channel being adjusted,

screen menus, make configuration settings such as
digital inputs or delay timing, or to select surround
modes. When changing a setting, first press the button
for the function or setting to be changed (e.g., press
the DSP Surround Mode Selector k to select a
sound field mode or the Digital Select Button q
to change a digital input) and then press one of these
buttons to scroll through the list of options or to
increase or decrease a setting. The sections in this
manual describing the individual features and functions
contain specific information on using these buttons for
each application.
