1“Power”: When the L73 is first plugged into the AC power, the L73’s clock will light in the main VFL display showing the time of day, and very little power is consumed. Press in to switch the receiver from standby, changing the standby indicator to bright blue and illuminating the VFL display. Pressing the power switch again turns the unit back to standby. It is usual (and perfectly acceptable) to leave the L73 in standby mode in between normal viewing and listening sessions. Pressing the “OPEN CLOSE” button on the front-panel, or the HTR L73 remote’s “ON” button, will switch the receiver on, making it operational. Press the remote’s “OFF” button to return to standby. Note that when you do choose to switch off from standby using the front panel Power button, the L73’s memory back-up system will store channel level, tuner preset, and other settings for several weeks while the unit is switched off, or even unplugged from AC power altogether.

2INDICATOR: When the L73 is in standby the LED will light bright blue, the VFL in the L73 will display the L73’s internal clock. This indicator will extinguish itself when the power cable is unplugged from the AC supply.

3PRESET TUNE: Press to step up or down between radio presets or

searching channels; 30 FM and 30 AM station presets are available.

Note that this function “wraps”: Pressing or will step from Preset 30 to Preset 1, or vice versa. “Unused” presets are

skipped over. (Note that Presets must previously have been stored; see

“Listening to Radio,” below.) Pressing momentarily the or

button will manually scan the AM or FM band. Press and hold the

or for more than 2 seconds to search up or down; the L73’s tuner will stop at the next sufficiently strong signal it encounters. Note that this function, too, “wraps,” and will continue searching up or down from one end of the AM or FM band to the other.

4SET UP: Press momentarily for setup of the L73 via the OSD. Use this function in conjunction with your video monitor. This “SET UP” button is mode dependent, the DVD and receiver’s OSD are mutually exclusive. Press and hold “SET UP” to bring up the receiver OSD even when in DVD mode.

5DISPLAY: Use this multifunction button to toggle between RDS PS, RDS RT and station frequency in FM Tuner mode (see Listening to Radio).

6MEMORY: Use to store tuned stations to the L73’s 60 preset- memory locations. (See “Listening to Radio”.)

7VFL DISPLAY: The Vacuum Fluorescent Display (VFL Display) provides visual information on all of the L73’s important modes, settings, and functions.

8TIME SET: Press and hold to set the internal clock, ON/OFF timer, and display of the clock’s time. A red “clock face” will appear in the florescent display when the timer is activated. Use the “MEMORY” keys to toggle between the hours and minutes. There are two timers, one for when the L73 powers on, the other for when the unit powers off; these too are programmed in the same way as above.

9FM/AM: Press to toggle between the tuner’s FM and AM bands.

10FM MUTE/MODE: In the normal Mute position, only the stations with a strong signal can be listened to, and the noise between stations is muted. Pressing the “FM Mute/Mode” button allows distant (and potentially noisy) stations to be received. (See “Listening to Radio”.)

11TONE: Press to toggle between Bass, Treble, TONE OFF and TONE ON. The VOLUME knob is used to adjust the Bass and Treble levels.

12VOLUME: Turn clockwise to increase the master-volume setting; counter clockwise to lower it. The VFL and on-screen displays show the setting, displayed as increments between MIN, 1 to 77. The VOLUME knob is also used to increment/decrement the Bass and Treble levels.

13INPUT SELECTOR: Use to select an audio/video input along with its assigned analog or digital inputs (see “Input Setup”). Rotate clockwise or counter clockwise to select between:

Internal DVD External 5.1 Internal AM/FM tuner CABLE/SAT VCR VIDEO 4 then back to Internal DVD
