EzSet Configuration
Harman Kardon’s patented EzSet feature makes
it easier than ever to calibrate the output levels
on your new AVR for maximum playback accura-
cy. In addition to automatically setting the levels,
the AVR remote’s LCD display allows the unit to
be used as a direct read-out SPL meter. Complete
instructions for using the EzSet features of the
AVR remote are found on page 26 of this
owner’s manual.
In most cases you will find it easier to access the
EzSet capabilities directly by pressing the SPL
Select Button
e
and following the menu
prompts as detailed in page 26. However, there
is one function of the remote that is only avail-
able through the remote’s menu system being
described in this section.
To avoid having the calibration settings created
with EzSet changed accidentally, the remote
allows you to disable the SPL Select Button
e
on the remote. To de-activate the button,
follow these steps:
1. Press and hold the Program Button
a
for
about three seconds while the message shown
in Figure 15 appears in the remote’s LCD
Information Display
2
. Release the but-
ton when the red light under the Set Button
F
appears.
2.The remote’s MAIN MENU message (Figure
16), will appear in the LCD display and the
Set Button
F
will remain illuminated in
red. Press the
⁄¤
Navigation Buttons
E
until SET SPKR LEVELS appears on the
bottom line of the LCD screen, as shown in
Figure 64. Press the Set Button
F
to enter
the main EzSet menu branch.

once so that
EZSET DISABLE appears in the lower line of
the LCD display.

4.Within five seconds, press the Set Button
F
to disable the SPL Select Button
e
.
Once the Set Button
F
is pressed the word
EXITING will flash four times in the lower line
of the LCD display and then it will return to
normal operation.
Once these steps are completed, when the SPL
Select Button
e
is pressed the remote will
show EZSET DISABLE and it will not be acti-
vated.
To restore the EzSet feature to normal operation,
repeat the procedure outlined above, except that
in step #3 you should press the
⁄¤
Navigation Buttons
E
so that EZSET
ENABLE appears in the lower line of the LCD
display. When that display appears, press the Set
Button
F
and the EzSet feature will be reacti-
vated.You may then press the Clear Button
X
to exit the remote’s menu system and return
to normal operation or press the Set Button
