NOTE: When the FM reception of a station is
weak, audio quality will be increased by
switching to Mono mode by pressing the
FM Mode button
until the
indicator
goes out.
Preset Tuning
Using the remote, up to 30 stations may be
stored in the AVR 310's memory for easy recall
using the front panel controls or the remote.
To enter a station into the memory, first tune
the station using the steps outlined above.
Then:
1. Press the Memory button

corresponding to the location where
you wish to store this station's frequency. Once
entered, the preset number will appear in the
Preset Number/Sleep Time Display
3. Repeat the process after tuning any
additional stations to be preset.
Recalling Preset Stations

Tape Recording
In normal operation, the audio or video source
selected for listening through the AVR 310 is
sent to the record outputs. This means that any
program you are watching or listening to may
be recorded simply by placing machines con-
nected to the outputs for Tape Outputs ™ or
Video 1 or 2 Outputs ∞dg in the record
mode.
When a digital audio recorder is connected to
the Digital Audio Outputs k, you are able
to record the digital signal using a CD-R,
MiniDisc or other digital recording system.
In addition to the rear panel digital outputs, the
AVR 310 offers Harman Kardon's exclusive con-

the setting will remain as long as the AVR 310
is turned on, unless the setting is changed in
the OSD menu system, as described above.
Note, however, that once the AVR 310 is turned
off, the setting is cancelled. When the unit is
turned on again, the Coaxial 3 Jack
return to its normal default setting as an input.
If you wish to use the jack as an output at a

NOTES:
• The digital outputs are active only when a
digital signal is present, and they do not
convert an analog input to a digital signal,
or change the format of the digital signal.
In addition, the digital recorder must be
compatible with the output signal. For
example, the PCM digital input from a CD
player may be recorded on a CD-R or
MiniDisc, but Dolby Digital or DTS signals
may not.

Output Level Trim Adjustment
Normal output level adjustment for the
AVR 310 is established using the test tone, as
outlined on pages 22 and 23. In some cases,
however, it may be desirable to adjust the out-
put levels using program material such as a test
disc, or a selection you are familiar with.
Additionally, the output level for the subwoofer
can only be adjusted using this procedure.
To adjust the output levels using program
material, first set the reference volume for the
front-left and front-right channels using the
Volume Control
34
.
If you are using a disc with test signals or an
external signal generator as the source from
which to trim the output levels, you may use
the EzSet feature of the remote to guide you to
the correct SPL level. To use the remote for this
purpose, press and quickly release the SPL
Indicator Select
to activate the sensor.

While the test tone is circulating, the Program
Indicator
will change color to indicate the
level. Adjust the level as shown above until the
LED lights green for all channels. When it is red
the level is too high; when it is amber the level
is too low. Press the SPL Indicator Select
to turn the sensor and indicator off.

Once the reference level has been set, press
the Channel Select button
that
will appear in the
Main Information Display
. To change
the level, first press the Set button
and then use the Selector buttons
buttons
to raise or lower the level.

DO NOT use the volume control, as this will
alter the reference setting.
