4 that corre-
sponds to the unit you wish to operate. In addi-
tion, the AVR 4000’s remote is shipped from the
factory to operate the AVR 4000 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 instruc-
tions on pages 39 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 Input Selectors. The descriptions shown here
primarily detail the functions of the remote when
it is used to operate the AVR 4000. (See page 44
for information about alternate functions for the
remote’s buttons.)

2 Program/SPL Indicator: This three-color
indicator is used to guide you through the
process of programming the remote or learning
commands from a remote into the AVR 4000’s
remote code memory and it is also used as a
level indicator when using the remote’s EzSet
capabilities. (See page 25 for more information
on setting output levels, and see page 39 for

3 Power Off Button: Press this button to
place the AVR 4000 or a selected device unit in
the Standby mode. Note that when the AVR 4000
is switched off this will turn off the main room
functions, but if the Multiroom system is activat-
ed, it will continue to function.
