processor reset
In the rare case where the unit’s operation or the displays seem abnormal, 
the cause may involve the erratic operation of the system’s memory or 
microprocessor.
To correct this problem, first unplug the unit from the AC wall outlet and wait 
at least three  minutes. After the pause, reconnect the AC power cord and 
check the unit’s operation. If the system still malfunctions, a system reset may 
clear the problem.
To clear the AVR’s entire system  memory  including tuner presets, output 
level settings, delay times and speaker configuration data, first put the unit 
in Standby by pressing the System Power Control button 1. Next press and 
hold the OK button 5 for five seconds.
The unit will turn on automatically and show the word RESET in the Display 
for a few seconds. Then it reverts to normal ON status. Note that once you 
have cleared the memory in this manner, it is necessary to re- establish all 
system  configuration  settings and tuner presets.
NOTE: Resetting the processor will erase any configuration settings you have 
made for  speakers, output levels, surround modes, digital input assignments 
as well as the tuner presets. After a reset the unit will be returned to the 
 factory presets, and all settings for these items must be reentered.
If the system is still operating incorrectly, there may have been an electronic 
 discharge or severe AC line interference that has corrupted the  memory or 
 microprocessor.
If these steps do not solve the problem,  consult an authorized Harman Kardon 
service depot.
