1POWER : When the L 54 is first plugged into the AC power, the L 54’s clock will light in the main Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFD) display showing the time of day. Press to switch ON the L 54 from standby, changing the standby indicator from bright blue to dark and illuminating the VFD display. Pressing the power switch again turns the unit back to standby. It is usual (and perfectly acceptable) to leave the L 54 in standby mode in between normal viewing and listening sessions.

Pressing the “STOP/OPEN” button on the front-panel or the HTR 4 remote’s “ON” button will switch the receiver ON, making it operational. Press

the remote’s “OFF” button to return to standby. Note that when you do choose to switch off to standby using the front panel Power button, the L 54’s memory back-up system will store channel level, tuner preset, and other settings for several weeks while the unit is switched off.

2INDICATOR : When the L 54 is in standby, the LED will light bright blue and at the same time, the VFD in the L 54 will display the L 54’s internal clock. This indicator will extinguish itself when the power cable is unplugged from the AC supply.

3REMOTE SENSOR : Point the HTR 4 at the remote sensor and press the buttons. Do not expose the remote sensor of the L 54 to a strong light source such as direct sunlight or illumination. If you do so, you may not be able to operate the receiver with the remote control.

Distance: About 23 ft (7 m) from the front of the remote sensor

Angle: About 30° in each direction of the front of the remote sensor

4TIMER ON/OFF : Press and hold to set the internal clock, ON/OFF timer and display of the clock’s time. A red “clock face” will appear in the fluorescent display when the timer is activated.

To set the internal clock, press and hold the “TIMER ON/OFF” button for more than 4 seconds. Use the “SETUP/MEMORY” button to toggle between the hours and minutes. Use the “SKIP/PRESET” buttons to change the hours and minutes. There are two timers, one for when the L 54 powers on – “ON TIME”; the other for when the unit powers off

– “OFF TIME”. Both timers are also programmed in the same way.

5FM MUTE/MODE : In the normal ‘Mute’ position, only the stations with a strong signal can be listened to, and the noise between stations is muted. Pressing the “FM MUTE/MODE” button allows distant (and potentially noisy) stations to be received (See also “Choosing FM MUTE/ MODE under the section “Using the L 54’s AM/FM Radio”).

6SETUP/MEMORY : Use to store tuned stations to the L 54’s 60 preset-memory locations (See “Listening to Radio”). When DVD mode is selected, use this button to go the Setup Menu as shown on the On Screen Display (OSD). (See also the section “Setting Radio Presets” under “Using the L 54’s AM/FM Radio”).

7DISPLAY : Use this multifunction button to toggle between RDS PS, RDS RT and station frequency in FM Tuner mode (See the section “Viewing RDS Text under “Using the L 54’s AM/FM Radio”). When in either CABLE/SAT or VCR mode, this “DISPLAY” button will toggle between Optical or Coaxial and analog inputs. You can assign either Optical or Analog input to VCR and either Coaxial or Analog input to CABLE/SAT. When in DVD mode, pressing “DISPLAY” will toggle between the two DVD display navigation menus as well.

8DISC TRAY : With the DISC TRAY open, insert a DVD, VCD, CD or other compatible media disc face down onto the tray.

If the disc is placed upside down and it is a single sided disc, ‘NO DISC’ appears on both the L 54’s VFD and the TV/Monitor screen.

9PLAY/PAUSE : Press this button to toggle between Play and Pause of a DVD, VCD, CD and other compatible media disc.

If the disc tray is open, press this button to automatically close the tray and start playback if a disc is loaded.

10STOP/OPEN : Press this button to open and close the disc tray and simultaneously select the internal DVD player. When in standby, this button will also power ON the L 54 and open the disc tray at the same time.

During DVD playback, press this button to stop and at the same time pause playback of disc -“PRESS PLAY TO CONTINUE” will be displayed in the OSD and “RESUME” at the VFD. If you do not want to resume play, press "STOP/OPEN" a second time and playback will come to a complete STOP. Press a third time and the disc tray will open.

11AUDIO MODE : Depending on the selected input, mode and audio format, press to toggle through SRS, TREBLE, BASS, LEFT balance level, RIGHT balance level and Dynamic Range Control (DRC).

Use the“VOLUME (SETUP)” knob or HTR 4’s Volume keys to adjust the

settings. (See also section about“Audio Mode” under“Setting up the L 54”).
