AVR 1565/AVR 1566 Advanced Functions, continued
Sleep Timer
The sleep timer sets the AVR to play for up to 90 minutes and then turn off automatically.
Press the Sleep button on the remote, and the time until turn-off will be displayed on the
front-panel Message display and on a connected TV. Each additional press of the Sleep
button decreases the play time by 10 minutes, with a maximum of 90 minutes. The
SLEEP OFF setting disables the sleep timer.
When the sleep timer has been set, the front-panel display will automatically dim to
half brightness.
If you press the Sleep button after the timer has been set, the remaining play time will
be displayed. Press the Sleep button again to change the play time.
Resetting the Remote
To reset the remote to its factory-default condition, simultaneously press and hold any
Source Selector button and the “0” Number button. When the Program Indicator LED
flashes amber, enter the code “333.” When the green LED goes out, the remote control
will be reset.
Processor Reset
If the AVR behaves erratically after a power surge, first turn off the rear-panel Main
Power switch and unplug the AC power cord for at least 3 minutes. Plug the cord back
in and turn the AVR on. If this procedure doesn’t help, reset the AVR’s processor as
described below.
NOTE: A processor reset erases all user configurations, including video resolution,
speaker and level settings, and tuner presets. After a reset, reenter all of these settings
from your notes in the Appendix worksheets.
To reset the AVR’s processor:
1. Press the front-panel Standby/On switch to place the unit in the Standby mode (the
Power Indicator LED will turn amber).
2. Press and hold the front-panel Surround Mode button for at least 5 seconds until the
RESET message appears on the front-panel Message display.
If the AVR does not function correctly after a processor reset, contact an authorized
Harman Kardon service center for assistance. Authorized service centers may be located
by visiting our Web site at www.harmankardon.com.
Memory
If the AVR is unplugged or experiences a power outage, it will retain your user settings
for up to four weeks.
