NOTE: The function names shown here are each
button’s feature when used with the AVR. Most
buttons have additional functions when used
with other devices. See page 42/43 for a list of
these functions.

12 MAIN REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS

IMPORTANT NOTE: The AVR 7000’s remote
may be programmed to control up to eight
devices, including the AVR 7000. Before using
the remote, it is important to remember to press
the Device Control Selector button
12# that corresponds to the unit you
wish to operate. In addition, the AVR 7000’s
remote is shipped from the factory to operate the
AVR 7000 and most Harman Kardon CD or DVD
players and cassette decks. The remote is also
capable of operating a wide variety of other
products using the control codes that are part of
the remote or by learning commands from other
remotes. Before using the remote with other
products, follow the instructions on pages 38–49
to program the proper codes for the products in
your system.

It is also important to remember that many of the
buttons on the remote take on different func-
tions, depending on the product selected using
the Device Control Selectors. The descriptions
shown here primarily detail the functions of the
remote when it is used to operate the AVR 7000.
(See page 39 for information about alternate
functions for the remote’s buttons.)

0 Program Indicator: This three-color indi-
cator is used to guide you through the process of
learning commands from a remote into the AVR’s
remote code memory. (See page 39 for informa-
tion on learning IR codes.)

functions. If the AVR is in the Standby mode, it will
also turn the AVR on.

2 CD/Tape/DVD Input Selectors: Pressing
one of these buttons will perform three actions
at the same time. First, if the AVR is not turned
on, this will power up the unit. Next, it will
select the source shown on the button as the
input to the AVR. Finally, it will change the
remote control so that it controls the device
selected. After pressing one of these buttons you
must press the AVR Selector button

1 again

to operate the AVR’s functions with the remote.

3 Power Off Button: Press this button to
place the unit in the Standby mode. Note that this
