Holding the button pressed for some seconds will directly turn off the Sleep time selection.

˙Dimmer Button: Press this button once to reduce the brightness of the front panel display to half the normal intensity. Press it again to turn the front panel display completely off. When the display is completely off, press the button to return to normal brightness.

îMain Tuning Buttons: When the tuner is in use, these buttons will tune up or down through the selected frequency band. A brief press of the button will manually tune to the next frequency increment, while pressing and holding the button for a longer period (>0.5 sec) will step quickly through the frequencies. As soon as the button is released the unit will automatically tune to the next station with a signal strong enough for acceptable reception. When a HK CD Recorder is in use these buttons will select the transport (Play or Record Deck).

Direct Button: Press this button to select a radio station by entering its frequency using the Numeric Keys. (See page12 for more informa- tion.)

˚Numeric Keys: These buttons serve as a ten-button numeric keypad to enter tuner preset positions or track numbers with CD players/ changers or to tune stations directly.

¬Auto Preset: When the tuner and FM band have been selected, this button may be used to automatically program the tuner presets for all stations with acceptable signal strength.

To start the auto preset scan, press and hold the button. Note that the MEMORY and PRESET indicators will flash. Keep holding the button pressed until the tuner will start to “look” for stations, as shown by increasing frequency num- bers in the Information Display. Release the but- ton and note that the tuner will search the entire FM band and stop briefly at each station that has acceptable signal strength. The HK 3380 will automatically assign a preset number to each station and then search for the next station. If the FM tuner finds fewer than 30 FM stations with acceptable signal strength, the Auto Preset tuning will scan two more cycles or until the remaining vacant preset memory spaces have been filled with those found in the first scan. The scan will stop when all 30 preset memory spaces have been filled or when three scans through the band have been completed (see page 13 for more information).

µSecondary Control Cover: This sliding cover normally hides the secondary controls. To access these controls, gently press the cover down and towards you.

ÑClear Button: This button is used to clear preset memory information for the HK 3380’s tuner. (See page 13 for more information on tuner presets.)

øMemory Button: Press this button to open a memory position that stores a preset location for the HK 3380’s tuner. (See page13 for more information on tuner presets.)

πMaster Volume: Press these buttons to raise or lower the HK 3380’s volume.

œP. Scan Button: Press this button to auto- matically scan through the list of stations that are programmed into the HK 3380’s tuner memory. When the button is pressed, each preset station will play for five seconds before the next station is selected. Press the button again when the desired station is heard to stop the preset scan.

®Mute Button: Press this button to momen- tarily silence the HK 3380.

ßFM Mode Button: Press this button when the tuner is in use in the FM band to switch to monaural reception if the stereo station is weak and noisy. (See page12 for more information.)

Tuning Up/Down: When the tuner is in use, these buttons work in the same way as the Main Tuning buttons î described above. But if CD or Tape is in use, these buttons will also control Fast Forward and Fast Reverse (or Rewind) for compatible Harman Kardon compact disc players/changers, CD-Recorders and cas- sette tape decks.
