System Default and Personal Settings Worksheets

The worksheets in this section show the system defaults for the global settings on your AVR 645. Once your system is configured manually, or through the use of EzSet/EQ, where applicable, we recommend that you use the “Your System Settings” column to record your personal preferences so that they may be restored in the event the AVR’s memory is lost due to an extended power outage, system upgrade, processor reset, or other major service to your unit. Additional copies of this worksheet may be downloaded from the Harman Kardon web site at www.harmankardon.com
