to select a numbered location (1 through 8) within the bank. Press the

some source devices to access the source’s setup menus.

Buttons to change the
numbered preset within a bank when in Preset Search mode, or to
change the channel sequentially when in All Channel Search mode.
These buttons have no other effect on the HK 3490, but are used to
make selections within the on-screen menu system for some source
devices. The OK Button transmits the Random Play command when
used with CD players.
Preset Scan: Press this button once to scan through the stations
you have previously programmed as presets. Each station will play for
five seconds before the tuner skips to the next preset station. Press the
button a second time to select the current station. If no presets have been
programmed, the 0 PRESET message will be displayed. When XM Radio
is in use, this button has nothing to do with preset stations. Instead, each
press of this button changes the information displayed on the front panel
as follows: channel name and number, channel category, artist name and
song title.
Disc Menu: This button has no effect on the HK 3490, but is used
with some DVD players to access the DVD disc’s menus.
Volume Controls: Use this control to raise or lower the volume,
which will be shown in decibels (dB) in the Message Display.
Mute Button: Press this button to mute the HK 3490’s speaker and
headphone outputs temporarily. To end the muting, press this button or
adjust the volume. Muting is also canceled when the receiver is turned
off. When the Subwoofer Trigger Output is connected to the correct
input on the subwoofer, and the corresponding Subwoofer Link Switch
is on, muting the HK 3490 will remove the trigger signal, turning off
the subwoofer’s amplifier to conserve energy. When normal listening
resumes, the trigger signal will be reactivated, turning on the subwoofer.
Tuning: Use this control to tune a radio station. Tap one end of the
button briefly to tune one frequency step at a time, or press and hold it
to seek the next frequency with an acceptably strong signal. When XM
Radio is in use, the digitally tuned channels are always of acceptable
strength, and thus there is no seek function, although pressing and
holding the Tuning Buttons scans through the channels faster. When the
FM Mode Button has been used to activate Category Search Mode, the
Tuning Buttons will only tune channels within the current category. Press
the FM Mode Button until All Channel Search Mode has been selected
to tune any channel.
Preset Stations Selectors/Track Skip: Press these buttons
to select a preset radio station, or to change tracks or chapters on
compatible Harman Kardon DVD and CD players. XM presets are stored
in one of five lettered banks. To switch banks, press the FM Mode
Button repeatedly until the PRESET SEARCH message appears in the
Message Display, and use the
‹
/
›
Buttons to change to the desired
bank. Then use the Preset Stations Selectors to select the numbered
preset within the bank.
Stop, Record, Pause and Play: These transport controls have no
effect on the receiver, but are used to control compatible Harman Kardon
DVD and CD players.
Fast Search: The Fast Search function is available with compatible
Harman Kardon DVD and CD players.
Dimmer: Press this button to partially or fully dim the front-panel display.
Repeat (V. Mode): This button has no effect on the HK 3490, but
issues the Repeat command when used with DVD and CD players. On
some remotes this button is labeled “V. Mode,” but it still issues the
Repeat command.
A-B (Source): This button has no effect on the HK 3490, but issues
the Repeat A-B command when used with DVD and CD players with
that feature. On some remotes, this button is labeled “Source,” but it
still issues the Repeat A-B command.
Sleep: Press this button to activate the sleep timer, which shuts off
the receiver after a programmed period of time up to 90 minutes.
