REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS
IMPORTANT NOTE: The AVR 225’s remote may be programmed to control up to eight devices, including the AVR 225. Before using the remote, it is important to remember to press the Input Selector Button e that corresponds to the unit you wish to operate. In addition, the AVR 225’s remote is shipped from
the factory to operate the AVR 225 and most Harman Kardon CD or DVD players and cassette decks. The remote is also capable of operating a wide variety of other products using the control codes that are part of the remote. Before using the remote with other products, follow the instructions on page 32 to program the proper codes for the products in your system.
It is also important to remember that many of the but- tons on the remote take on different functions, depend- ing on the product selected using the device control selectors. The descriptions shown here primarily detail the functions of the remote when it is used to operate the AVR 225. (See pages
aPower Off Button: Pressing this button turns off (places in the Standby mode) the device that was last selected by pressing one of the Input Selectors e. To place the AVR 225 in the Standby mode, first press the AVR Selector Button f and then press this button.
bIR Transmitter Window: Point this window toward the AVR 225 when pressing buttons on the remote to make certain that infrared commands are properly received.
cProgram/SPL Indicator: This
dPower On Button: Press this button to turn on power to the device that was last selected by pressing one of the Input Selectors e. To turn on the AVR 225, press the AVR Selector Button f.
eInput Selectors: Pressing one of these buttons will perform three actions at the same time. First, if the AVR 225 is not turned on, this will power up the unit. Next, it will select the source shown on the button as the input to the AVR 225. Finally, it will change the remote control so that it controls the device selected. After pressing one of these buttons you must press the AVR Selector Button f again to operate the AVR 225’s functions with the remote.
fAVR Selector: Pressing this button will switch the remote so that it will operate the AVR 225’s functions. If the AVR 225 is in the Standby mode, it will also turn the AVR 225 on.
gAM/FM Tuner Select: Press this button to select the AVR 225’s tuner as the listening choice. Pressing this button when the tuner is already in use will switch between the AM and FM bands.
hTest Button: Press this button to begin the sequence used to manually calibrate the AVR 225’s output levels. To begin automatic calibration using the EzSet feature, press the SPL Button 36 instead of this button. (See page 21 for more information on calibrating the AVR 225.)
iSleep Button: Press this button to place the unit in the Sleep mode. After the time shown in the display, the AVR 225 will automatically go into the Standby mode. Each press of the button changes the time until

This button is also used to change channels on your TV when the TV is selected, and to end the process of creating a macro command. (See page 33 for more information on creating macros.)
jSurround Mode Selector: Press this button to begin the process of changing the surround mode. After the button has been pressed, use the ⁄/¤ Buttons mq to select the desired surround mode. (See page 25 for more information.) Note that this button is also used to tune channels when the TV is selected and during the process of erasing stored macro commands. (See page 33 for more information on macros.)
NOTE: The Sleep Button i and Surround Mode Selector j may also function as the Channel + and – keys when the remote is programmed for use with TVs, cable boxes, VCRs, satellite receivers or other video devices with tuners. See page 34 for information on programming the remote for Channel Control
kNight Mode: Press this button to activate the Night mode. This mode is available in specially encoded digital sources, and it preserves dialogue (center channel) intelligibility at low volume levels.
lChannel Select Button: This button is used to start the process of setting the AVR 225’s output levels to an external source. Once this button is pressed, use the
⁄/¤ Buttons mq to select the channel being adjusted, then press the Set Button o, followed by the ⁄/¤ Buttons mq again, to change the level setting. (See page 29 for more information.)
m ⁄ Button: This multipurpose button is used to change or scroll through items in the
n ‹ Button: This button is used to change the menu selection or setting during some of the setup procedures for the AVR 225.
oSet Button: This button is used to enter settings into the AVR 225’s memory. It is also used in the setup procedures for delay time, speaker configuration and channel output level adjustment.
pDigital Select: Press this button to assign one of the digital inputs be#$ to a source. (See page 26 for more information on using digital inputs.)
q ¤ Button: This multipurpose button is used to change or scroll through items in the
rNumeric Keys: These buttons serve as a 10- button numeric keypad to enter tuner preset positions. They are also used to select channel numbers when TV has been selected on the remote, or to select track numbers on a CD, DVD or LD player, depending on how the remote has been programmed.
sTuner Mode: Press this button when the tuner is in use to select between automatic tuning and manual tuning. In automatic tuning mode, the Auto Indicator R will be lit, and only stations with acceptable signal quality may be tuned by pressing the Tuning Up/ Down Buttons 8u. When the button is pressed so that the Auto Indicator R goes out, manual tun- ing mode is engaged, and pressing the Tuning Buttons 8u will move the frequency up or down in
