Installation
To prevent possible damage to your speakers
and other components in your audio system,
it is important that ALL components, including
the HD3700 and your receiver or preamp and
amplifiers, are turned off and unplugged from
their AC power source when installing any
new component.
Connecting the HD3700 to your audio system is
simple. Using standard RCA-to-RCA interconnect
cables, connect the left and right Audio Output
jacks on the rear panel to the CD input jacks on
your receiver, surround processor or preamplifier.
If your system includes an optional external
digital-to-analog converter, or if you are using
a receiver or other processor that has the
capability to decode PCM digital input signals,
connect the Digital Output jack to the
Coaxial or Optical Digital input on the decoder.
Make certain to use a coaxial-style interconnect
cable, as standard audio cables will not perform
as well.
Install two AAA batteries by turning the remote
over so that you are holding the bottom side up.
Press lightly on the embossed arrow on the cover
and gently slide the cover towards you in the
direction of the arrow. Insert the batteries inside
the compartment, being careful to follow the
+ and – polarity indications at the bottom of the
compartment. Replace the cover by placing it on
the remote and sliding it back towards the top of
the remote.
Note: When replacing batteries, always replace
both at the same time. When the unit will not
be used for an extended period of time, it is also
a good idea to remove the batteries so that the
potential for corrosion or damage is avoided.
If the HD3700 is installed behind a cabinet
or other obstruction that may block the path
between the front-panel Remote Sensor and
the location of the remote, an optional external
IR sensor maybe used. Connect the sensor to the
Remote IR-In Jack on the rear panel. This jack
may also be connected to the IR Output jack of
another compatible Harman Kardon component
or a compatible IR-system-remote product.
You may also use the IR Sensor in the HD3700
to send commands to other compatible remote
controlled products. Connect the Remote
IR-Out jack to the input of the other product
or system.
Connect the power to an on-switched AC wall
outlet or to the accessory outlet on the rear of
another audio device in your system and you are
ready to go!
Note: When using the accessory outlet on
another product to power the HD3700 make
certain that it has the compatibility to power
a device that draws at least 14 watts of
current in addition to being able to handle the
requirements of the other devices that may be
plugged into the accessory outlets. If you use a
‘switched’ outlet, it is important to remember
that the host product must be turned on in order
for the HD3700 to operate.
