Operation
Clearing Preset Stations
Unwanted preset stations may be erased
from the unit’s memory to make it easier
to tune only those stations you want.
To remove a preset station from the
HK3270’s tuner memory, first tune to the
station using the
Preset Scan
button
*
on the front panel or remote, or
by entering the preset number directly,
using the
Numeric Keys
P
.
When the preset station to be removed
has been tuned, first press the
Memory
button
T
. The
MEMO
and
PRESET
indi-
cators in the Information Display will
flash, and the actual preset number will
disappear from the display. Next, press the
Clear
button
S
within five seconds.
The preset station will be removed from
the memory, and the action will be con-
firmed by the brief appearance of the
word
CLEAR
and the preset number
location in the Information Display. That
memory location will now be empty, and
you may program a different station to
that location, or leave it empty.
Tape Recording
In normal operation, the audio source
selected for listening through the HK3270
is sent to the Tape Mon Out and Tape 2
Rec Out outputs. This means that any
program you are listening to may be
recorded simply by placing machines con-
nected to the outputs for
Tape Monitor
‚
or
Tape 2
¤
in the record mode.
When a tape recorder with separate record
and playback heads is used, you may
monitor the output of the recording by
selecting the
T• Mon
!
or
Tape 1
ç
.
Note that a red LED will illuminate in the
front panel above the
T• Mon
!
to
remind you that you are listening to the
record playback instead of the actual
input source being recorded.

Memory Backup
This product is equipped with a memory
backup system that preserves tuner pre-
sets and system configuration informa-
tion if the unit is accidentally unplugged
or subject to a power outage.
Processor Reset
In the rare case where the unit’s opera-
tion 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.
If the system still does not respond, it
may be necessary to perform a complete
reset. To reset the system, first turn the
HK3270 off by pressing the
Main Power
Switch
1
and then releasing it so that
it extends out beyond the front panel and
the word “OFF” is visible in red lettering
at the top of the switch.
Next, press and hold the
T•Mon
and
CD
Input Selector
buttons
! #
on the
front panel ONLY. While holding these
buttons in, press the
Main Power
Switch
1
in until it latches so that the
button is flush with the front panel.
The Information Display will briefly
show the word
RESET
, and then return
to normal operation.
Note that when the system is reset in this
fashion, all tuner presets will be lost and
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.
