OPERATION

3. Press the Tuner Input Selector (marked AM/FM) on the remote.

Press this button again to switch bands.

Figure 58 – Tuner Input Selection

Radio stations may be selected in one of four ways (see Figure 59):

1. If you know the frequency number, enter it directly by first pressing

the Direct Button on the remote, and then using the Numeric Keys.

2. After you have programmed Preset stations (see below), either enter

the Preset number (1 through 30) using the remote or use the Preset
Stations Button (front-panel or remote), to scroll through the list of
presets.

3. In Auto tuning mode, with each press of the Tuning Buttons (front-

panel or remote) the AVR 154 will scan in the chosen direction until 
a station with acceptable signal strength is detected. Press the Tuning
Button again to stop scanning.

4. In Manual tuning mode, with each press of the Tuning Buttons the

AVR 154 will tune the next frequency increment (0.1MHz for FM, or
10kHz for AM) in the selected direction. Press and hold the Tuning
Button for faster scanning.

Figure 59 – Tuning a Station

Press the Tuning Mode Button (TUN-M on the remote) to switch
between Auto and Manual tuning modes. See Figure 60. When an FM
station has been tuned, pressing the Tuning Mode Button will switch
between stereo and mono tuning, which may improve reception of
weaker stations.

Figure 60 – Tuning Mode

To store a station in one of the 30 presets (see Figure 61):

1. Tune the desired station.

2. Press the Memory Button on the remote.

3. Use the Numeric Keys to enter the desired preset number.

Recording

Two-channel analog and digital audio signals, as well as composite 
and S-video signals, are normally available at the appropriate recording
outputs. Thus, to make a recording, you need only make sure to connect
your audio or video recorder to the appropriate output jacks, as described
in the Installation section, insert blank media and make sure the recorder
is turned on and recording while the source is playing.

NOTES:

1. Analog audio signals are not converted to digital form, and

digital audio signals are not converted to analog audio form.
However, you may record a coaxial or optical digital audio
source using either type of digital audio output.

2. Only PCM digital audio signals are available for recording.

Proprietary formats such as Dolby Digital and DTS may not
be recorded using the digital audio connections. If the source
is connected to the AVR using the analog audio connections,
an analog recording may be made.

3. HDMI and Component video sources are not available for 

recording.

4. Please make certain that you are aware of any copyright

restrictions on any material you record. Unauthorized duplica-
tion of copyrighted materials is prohibited by federal law.

AUX Input

Enjoy the full power and resolution of your Harman Kardon system,
including a variety of analog surround modes, while listening to content
stored on your portable device.

The Auxiliary Audio Input mini jack is provided on the AVR’s rear panel
for convenient connection of portable players, such as CD players and
the iPod (iPod and cable not included). Purchase a stereo cable with 
a 1/8" plug on at least one end for connection to the Auxiliary Audio
Input. Plug the other end of the cable into the portable device’s head-
phone output, and operate the device using its own controls. You may
also use a cable with separate left and right audio plugs at one end for
connection to any component equipped with analog audio outputs.

No video connection is available with the AUX input. However, the AVR
will use the last-selected analog video input when the AUX source is
selected.
