ADVANCED FUNCTIONS

Processor Reset

There may be instances where you wish to fully reset the HS 500 to its factory defaults, or the unit may behave erratically after a power surge.

For erratic behavior, we recommend you first turn the Power Switch off and unplug the AC Power Cord for at least three minutes. Plug the cord back in and turn the unit back on. If this doesn’t work, you may want to try a system reset.

NOTE: A system reset erases all user configurations, including parental control, audio, video, speaker and level settings and tuner presets. After a reset, you will need to reenter all of these settings.

To reset the HS 500, turn it on, stop playback and remove any disc or USB device. Press the Clear Button to remove any on-screen displays, so that only the HS 500 “splash screen” is visible. Press and hold the Clear Button for five seconds. The on-screen picture may jump, indicat- ing a successful reset.

If the unit still does not function correctly after a processor reset, contact an authorized Harman Kardon service center for assistance. Service centers may be located by visiting our Web site at www.harmankardon.com.

Memory

If the HS 500 is unplugged or experiences a power outage, it will retain user settings for up to four weeks.
