any optional components to a wall outlet.

First Turn On
You are now ready to power up the HS 1000
Controller to begin final adjustments.
1. Plug the
Power Cable

into an un switched
AC outlet.
Note that the
Power Indicator
1
will turn
orange, indicating that the unit is in the
Standby mode.
2. Remove the protective plastic film from the
main front-panel lens. If left in place, the film
may affect the performance of your remote
control.

remote as shown. Be certain to follow the (+)
and (–) polarity indicators that are on the top
of the battery compartment.

will turn white to con-

Playback Basics
Basic Play
1. Switch the TV ON and select its video input
connected to the HS Controller.
2. When you switch on the HS system controller,
a Harman Kardon HS welcome image should
appear on the screen. If that screen appears
distorted or without color, change the
appropriate settings at the Video Setting
Submenu according to your TV set and to the
connection used between the HS Controller
and your TV.
3. If there is no picture at all, not even the
Harman Kardon screen, check the setting of
the video input used on your TV (most SCART
inputs on TVs can be configured in the TV´s
menu). If this doesn't work, connect your TV
with different cables to the HS Control ler, e.g.
via Composite (yellow jacks) or S-Video cables,
rather than SCART to view the setup menus
until all appropriate ”Video menu” settings
are made properly.
4. Insert a disc into the Slot Loader
6
.
Hold the disc without touching either of its
surfaces, position it with the side you wish to
play facing down, align it with the guides, and
place it in its proper position.
• 3" (8 cm) discs or 5" (12 cm) discs can be
used.
5. After the discs slides into the loader, it will
start playing automatically.
• With most DVD’s, a Disc Menu appears on the
screen. Select specific menu item by using
ARROW
9
buttons on the remote, then
press ENTER
