In addition to controlling the AVR, the AVR remote can also control a Harman Kardon Blu-
ray Disc
®
or DVD player that is connected to the HDMI 1 connector. The remote control
buttons will have different functions depending on if the remote is controlling the AVR or
a Blu-ray Disc or DVD player. Appendix A5, Remote Control Function List, on page 25,
provides a list of the different remote control button functions when controlling a Blu-ray
Disc or DVD player.

more information.
Volume Up/Down buttons: Press these buttons to raise or lower the volume.
