Main Power Off: When the AVR is unplugged or the Main Power Switch is off, this LED is off.

Standby: Amber indicates that the AVR is ready to be turned on.

On: When the AVR is turned on, this LED turns white.

NOTE: If the PROTECT message ever appears, turn off the AVR and unplug it. Check all speaker wires for a possible short. If none is found, bring the unit to an authorized Harman Kardon service center for inspection and repair before using it again.

Standby/On Switch: This electrical switch turns the receiver on, or places it in Standby mode for quick turn-on.

Front-Panel Door (not shown): Most of the controls and connectors described below are hidden behind this door. To open it, gently grab the right or left edge of the door and pull it forward and down.
