1“Power”: When the L53 is first plugged into the AC power, the L53’s clock will light in the main VFL display showing the time of day. Press in to switch the receiver from standby, changing the standby indicator from bright blue to dark, and illuminating the VFL display. Pressing the power switch again turns the unit back to standby. It is usual (and perfectly acceptable) to leave the L53 in standby mode in between normal viewing and listening sessions. Pressing the “OPEN CLOSE” button on the front-panel, or the HTR L53 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 L53’s memory back-up system will store channel level, tuner preset, and other settings for several weeks while the unit is switched off, or even unplugged from AC power altogether.

2INDICATOR: When the L53 is in standby the LED will light bright blue, the VFL in the L53 will display the L53’s internal clock. This indicator will extinguish itself when the power cable is unplugged from the AC supply.

3REMOTE SENSOR: Point the remote control at the remote sensor and press the buttons. Do not expose the remote sensor of the receiver 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 “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 L53 powers on, the other for when the unit powers off; these too are 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 “Listening to Radio”.

6SETUP/MEMORY: Use to store tuned stations to the L53’s 60 preset-memory locations. (See “Listening to Radio”)

When DVD is selected, use this button for setting the DVD-player’s options as shown on the On Screen Display (OSD). (See “Using the L53’s DVD/VCD/CD player”)

7DISPLAY: Use this multifunction button to toggle between RDS PS, RDS RT and station frequency in FM Tuner mode (see “Listening to Radio”). When in ether 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 navigation menus as well.
