INTRODUCTION 3 Connections Speaker System 1 Right channel Record Player Cassette Tape Deck CD Recorder Speaker System 1 Left channel Right channel Speaker System 2 Left channel Speaker System 2 Video Player 2 Video Player 1 Tuner Compact Disc Player Connecting Other Components 1. Connect each component's Output/Play jacks to the corresponding Input jacks on the back of your amplifier and, if available, the component's Input/Record jacks to the Output jacks of the HK670. Use the white, black or gray plugs to connect Left channel jacks; use the red plugs for Right channel jacks. A record player with MM cartridge must be connected to the Phono Input jacks and a separate ground wire to the ground terminal screw above. Wired Remote Control To control your amplifier with an external infrared remote sensor, connect the wire from the remote sensor to the REMOTE IN jack on the back panel. Or, if another stereo component has a built-in infrared remote sensor and a Remote Output jack, it may be possible to connect this jack to the REMOTE IN jack of your amplifier. All Harman Kardon products with »Remote In« and »Remote Out« jacks are compatible with one another, except for the Citation 22, 24 and 25. The remote In jack of units without an integrated IR receiver must be connected to the amplifier's remote control output jack so that the system remote control can operate them. The Function Table below will show all functions of the HK670 and external devices that can be controlled by the HK670 remote. Important Notes: · For controlling a tuner (only needed for the numeric buttons), CD Recorder or CD Player the appropriate input ("TUNER", "CDR" or "CD") must have been selected with the source buttons of the remote control (selecting on the front panel is not sufficient). · Note that DVD players or tape decks cannot be controlled by the remote. · To control a compatible CD Recorder "CDR" must be selected as input and the drive to be controlled (CDP or CDR) must be selected appropriately with the "CDP SELECT" or "CDR SELECT" buttons. Operating Conditions The control unit operates effectively within a distance of 7 meters and an angle of 30° from the amplifier. Using the control near fluorescent lights may shorten this range, as will any dust or dirt that accumulates on the front of the remote control or the remote sensor area of the amplifier. The control unit is powered by two AA batteries, included with your amplifier. When the remote is to be unused for an extended period, remove the batteries to prevent damage from corrosion.
