The HK 3470 has been custom designed to provide all the excitement and power of rock, jazz and popular music, and every nuance of classical selections. [. . . ] If you do not know the polarity of your speaker, ask your dealer for advice before proceeding, or consult the speaker's manufacturer. Connect a second set of speakers, or speakers that are in a second room location, to the Speaker 2 terminals H. When an optional, powered subwoofer is used, connect the outputs of the left and right Subwoofer Out jacks F to the line-level inputs of the subwoofer. When the subwoofer's amplifier has stereo inputs, run interconnects from both jacks. When the subwoofer has a mono input only, use the bottom output jack for the connection. When a separate passive subwoofer is used, these connections will be made to the optional amplifier that powers the subwoofer. If the (passive) subwoofer or Sub/Sat system has only speaker-level inputs and outputs, connect the Speaker 1 terminals G to the speaker-level inputs on the subwoofer, and then connect the speaker-level outputs on the subwoofer to your main left and right speakers, following the instructions provided with the subwoofer. 7. The FM antenna may be an external roof antenna, an inside powered or wire lead antenna or a connection from a cable system. Note that if the antenna or connection uses 300-ohm twin-lead cable, you must use the 300-ohm-to-75-ohm adapter supplied with the unit to make the connection. Speaker Connections To ensure that all the audio signals are carried to your speakers without loss of clarity or resolution, we suggest that you use high-quality speaker cable. Many brands of cable are available, and the choice of cable may be influenced by the distance between your speakers and the receiver, the type of speakers you use, personal preferences and other factors. Your dealer or installer is a valuable resource for help in selecting the proper cable. Regardless of the brand of cable selected, we recommend that you use a cable constructed of fine, multistrand copper with an area of min. We do not recommend that you use cables with an area of 0. 8 mm2 or smaller due to the power loss and degradation in performance that will occur. 2 Cables that are run inside walls should have the appropriate markings to indicate listing with the appropriate testing agency standards. Questions about running cables inside walls should be referred to an installer or a licensed electrical contractor who is familiar with applicable local building codes in your area. 12 INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS Installation and Connections System and Power Connections The HK 3470 is designed for flexible use with external control components and power amplifiers. These connections are easy to make during an initial installation, or at a later date should you choose to upgrade your system. Remote Control Extension If the receiver is placed behind a solid or smoked glass cabinet door, the obstruction may prevent the remote sensor from receiving commands. If other components are also prevented from receiving remote commands, only one sensor is needed. They may use this unit's sensor or a remote eye by running a connection from the Remote IR Out jack 4 to the Remote In jack on Harman Kardon or other compatible equipment. External Audio Power Amplifier Connections If desired, an optional, external amplifier may be used in place of the HK 3470's internal power amplifier. To connect an external power amplifier, first remove the Pre-Out/Main-In Jumper Pins D that connect the Preamp Out E and Main In C jacks on the rear panel. Keep the jumpers in a safe place should they be needed at a later time. [. . . ] Step 3: Use the Numeric Keys ° to enter the numbers "999". Step 4: The LED Indicator will remain on for five seconds, and then blink three times to indicate that it has reset all of the keys on the remote. The entire remote will now operate the factory default set of codes. Memory Backup This product is equipped with a memory backup system that preserves tuner presets if the unit is accidentally unplugged, turned off completely with the Main Power switch 1 or subjected to a power outage. The unit's memory is stored in an EEPROM, and thus the HK 3470 will retain information such as programmed presets without being connected to a main power source virtually indefinitely. 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. [. . . ]
