Operation

Tape Recording

In normal operation, the audio source selected
for listening through the HK 3490/HK 3390 is
sent to the Tape Mon Rec Out
1 Record Outputs outputs. This means that
any program you are listening to may be recorded
simply by placing machines connected to the out-
puts for Tape Monitor or Video 1
record mode. Moreover the source connected to
Video 1 Input may be recorded to a
recorder connected to Tape Mon
than turned around.
When a tape recorder with separate record and
playback heads is used, you may monitor the out-
put of the recording by selecting the Tape
Monitor Input Selector 9 ç. Note that the
TAPE M. Indicator will light in the Main
Information Display Û to remind you that
you are listening to the record playback instead
of the actual input source being recorded.
As long as Tape Monitor 9 ç is selected the
previously selected input source remains routed
to the Record Outputs . Press the Tape
Monitor Input Selector 9 ç again to turn
the monitoring off and listen to the actual input
source. Note that changing the Bass, Treble or
Balance control will not affect the recordings,
only the preamp and speaker outputs.

Memory Backup

This product is equipped with a memory backup
system that preserves tuner presets if the unit is
accidentally unplugged, turned off completely by
disconnecting from the main power source or
subjected to a power outage.
The unit's memory is stored in an EEPROM, and
thus the HK 3490/HK 3390 will retain informa-
tion such as programmed presets for a virtually
infinite time without being connected to a main
power source.

Processor Reset

In the rare case where the unit's operation or the
displays seem abnormal, the cause may involve
and Video the erratic operation of the system's memory or
microprocessor.
To correct this problem, first unplug the unit from
the AC wall outlet and wait at least three min-
in the
utes. After the pause, reconnect the AC power
cord and check the unit's operation. If the system
still malfunctions, a system reset may clear the
, rather
problem.To reset the system, first turn the HK
3490/HK 3390 off either by pressing the Main
Power Switch on the rear panel
disconnecting the unit from the main power
source..
Next, press and hold the MUTE 5 and the
Preset Scan @ buttons at the same time on the
front panel ONLY.When the receiver switches On
and the Main Information Display shows the
word , release both buttons. The receiver
RESET
returns to Standby Mode.
Note that when the system is reset in this fash-
ion, all tuner presets will be lost and must be
reentered.
If the system is still operating incorrectly, there
may have been an electronic discharge or severe
AC line interference that has corrupted the mem-
ory or microprocessor. If these steps do not solve
the problem, consult your dealer or an authorized
Harman Kardon service center.
