Harman-Kardon AVR 3600 FRONT-PANEL Controls, On When the AVR is turned on, this LED turns white

FRONT-PANEL CONTROLS

Power Indicator: This LED has three possible modes:

•Main Power Off: When the AVR is unplugged or the rear- panel 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.

Setup Button: Press this button to access the AVR’s main menu.

Info Settings Button: Press this button to directly access the AVR’s Source Info submenu, which contains the settings for the current source.

Resolution: Press this button to access the AVR’s video output

resolution setting: 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p or 1080p/24 (if available on source and display).

IMPORTANT NOTE: If the AVR’s video output resolution is set higher than the capabilities of the actual connection, you will not see a picture. If the best available video connection from the AVR to the TV is composite video, press this button and change the resolution to 480i.

Audio Effects: Press this button to directly access the Audio Effects submenu, which allows adjustment of the tone and other audio controls. See the Initial Setup section for more information.

Video Modes: Press this button for direct access to the Video Modes submenu, which contains settings that may be used to improve the picture, if necessary, after you have adjusted the picture settings using the video display or TV.

Surround Modes: Press this button to select a surround sound (e.g., multichannel) mode. The Surround Modes menu will appear on screen, and the menu line will appear in the front-panel display. See the Advanced Functions section for more information on surround modes.

Source List: Press this button to select a source device, which is a component where a playback signal originates, e.g., DVD.

Back/Exit: Press this button to return to the previous menu, or to exit the menu system.

1/57/3 Navigation: These buttons are used to navigate the AVR’s menus.

OK: Press this button to select the currently highlighted item.

Headphone Jack/EzSet/EQ Microphone Input: Plug a 1/4” headphone plug into this jack for private listening.

This jack is also used to connect the supplied microphone for the EzSet/EQ procedure described in the Initial Setup section.

USB Port: This port may be used in case we offer a software upgrade for the receiver in the future. Do not connect a storage device, peripheral product or a PC here, unless instructed to do so as part of an upgrade procedure.

Digital Audio, Video and Analog Audio Front Inputs: Connect a source component that will only be used temporarily, such as a digital camera or game console, to these jacks. Use only one type of audio and one type of video connection.

NOTE: The AVR’s menus refer to these jacks as the Optical Front, Coaxial Front, Composite Front, and Analog Front inputs.

Volume Knob: Turn this knob to raise or lower the volume.

Message Display: Various messages appear in this two-line display in response to commands and changes in the incoming signal. In normal operation, the current source name appears on the upper line, while the surround mode is displayed on the lower line. When the on-screen display menu system (OSD) is in use, the current menu settings appear.

Remote IR Sensor: This sensor receives infrared (IR) commands from the remote control. It is important to ensure that it is not blocked. If covering the sensor is unavoidable, use an optional Harman Kardon HE 1000, or other infrared receiver, connecting it to the Remote IR Input on the AVR 3600’s rear panel.
