ZONE 2 REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS
The Zone 2 remote control is used in the remote zone of a multizone
system with an IR receiver connected to the Zone 2 IR Input or an
A-BUS device. It may be used to control the power, volume and mute
functions or to select a source input for the remote zone, and to control
a Harman Kardon source connected to one of the AVR’s Remote IR
Outputs or the A-BUS IR Output.
The Zone 2 remote may also be used in the main listening room to
directly control the AVR 3550HD and Harman Kardon DVD, CD or tape
players.The power, volume and mute controls will only affect the main
listening area.
The Zone 2 remote requires two AAA batteries (included) that are
installed in the battery compartment on the back of the remote. Make
sure to observe proper polarity by matching the + and – symbols on
the batteries to the symbols printed inside the compartment.
IR Transmitter: This lens emits infrared codes when buttons on
the remote are pressed.
Power Off: Press to turn off the AVR 3550HD. The Zone 2 remote
has no Power On Button, since the AVR turns on its multizone system
automatically when any of the Input Selectors is pressed, even if the
AVR itself is in Standby mode. When in the main listening room, press
any Input Selector or the AVR Selector to turn on the AVR 3550HD.
Mute: Press to mute the AVR 3550HD’s remote zone speakers tem-
porarily. To end the muting, press this button or adjust the volume, or
turn off the multizone system. Unless the remote is used in the main
listening area, only the remote zone will be affected.
Source Selectors: Press one of these buttons to select a source
device for the remote zone. It will also turn on the multizone system
and switch the remote to the source’s device mode. You may select
a different source device than the main room. If you select the same
source as the main room, then any commands sent to the source will
affect both zones.The first press of the Radio Selector switches the
AVR to the last-used tuner band (AM, FM or XM). Each successive
press changes the band.
NOTE: The blank button to the left of the Radio Selector is not
used, even though pressing it causes the Zone Indicator to light up.
Transport Controls: These buttons are used to control many source
components.
AVR Settings Button: Press to display the AVR’s Main Menu. It is
also used to switch the remote to AVR device mode.
Info Settings Button: Press to display the AVR’s Info Menu, which
contains the settings for the current source.
Sleep Settings Button: Press to activate the sleep timer, which turns
off the receiver after a programmed period of time of up to 90 minutes.
Each additional press increases the timer by 10 minutes, ending with the
“Sleep Off” message.
Back/Exit: Press to return to the previous menu or to exit the menu
system.
Menu Button: This button is used to display the main menu on some
source devices.To display the AVR 3550HD’s main menu, press the
AVR Settings Button.

used to make selections within the menu system and also to operate
the tuner.
Zone Selector and Zone Indicator: Each press of the Zone

listening area (Zone 1) or the remote zone (Zone 2). The Zone Indicator
will turn green when Zone 1 has been selected, and red for Zone 2.
The Zone Indicator will also light briefly whenever any button is pressed.
Volume Controls: Press to raise or lower the volume level in the
remote zone.
