The fact that your investment includes a Harman Kardon Ultrawideband Stereo Receiver shows us your appreciation of uncompromised reproduction of the music you enjoy. Throughout the design and manufacture of this unit, we made every effort to assure it will meet all of your expectations. To ensure continuing high performance, read this manual carefully before you connect and operate your hk460i. Warning To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture. Warning Do not mistake the ferrite loopstick AM antenna for a handle. Its bracket cannot support the unit. Connections For the moment, leave the POWER LINE CORD (37) of the hk460i unconnected. Put the unit on the shelf or table where it will be installed. Leave enough working space so you can make all connections easily. The hk460i requires adequate ventilation. It should not be installed on a cushion or rug, and a minimum of two inches (5cm) clearance should be provided above and behind. Like most stereo equipment, your hk460i is fitted with pin type RCA connectors to accept standard pin type RCA patch cords. If these are not compatible with your other equipment, consult your audio dealer for patch cords with proper adaptors. Connecting your turntable to the hk460i Turntables are supplied with their own signal cables. Consult the owner’s manual and determine which cable is for the left channel and which is for the right channel. Insert the left channel cable into the left PHONO INPUT connector (30) on your hk460i. Insert the right channel cable into the right PHONO INPUT connector (30). Push the plugs in all the way so they are firmly seated, making good electrical contact. If your turntable has a separate ground wire, connect it to the knurled thumbscrew on the receiver is marked GND (29). Connecting your tape deck to the hk460i To connect a tape deck, connect the left output connector of your tape deck to the left TAPE INPUT connector (32) on your hk460i. Now connect the right output connector of your deck to the right TAPE INPUT connector (32) on your hk460i. 4 Using a second pair of pafch cords, connect the left input connector of your deck to the left TAPE OUTPUT connector (33) on your hk460i. Now connect the right input connector of your deck to the right TAPE OUTPUT (33) on your hk460i. Push the plugs in all the way so they are firmly seated, making good electrical contact. Connecting other equipment to the 460i A pair of AUXILIARY INPUTS (31) is available at the rear of the hk460i for the connection of any “high level” output equipment. A special tuner for long wave, marine, aircraft or citizen’s bands, etc., may be connected. Or you may choose to connect the output of the audio section of a television receiver. Any number of choices are available. Consult your audio dealer for information as to what equipment is compatible with your hk460i. Connecting Speakers Use two-conductor stranded wire to connect your speakers to the receiver. Eighteen gauge lamp cord (zip cord) is satisfactory, but a heavier gauge (16 or 14 gauge) is preferable, especially for distances over 25 feet. Cut two segments of wire long enough to reach each speaker. Separate the conductors at each end of the wire segments for a length of two or three inches. Then carefully remove about one-quarter inch of insulation from each free end. Twist the strands of each conductor so they are smooth and tight with no loose strands. Lamp cord usually provides a “code” that differentiates the two conductors. A conductor may be coded by a rib, sharp corner, or indentations molded along the length of the insulation. In some cases, a thin colored thread is molded inside the insulation of one conductor. In others, one conductor is darker than the other, or the insulation of each conductor is of a different color. Connect the bare ends of one segment of lamp cord to your right speaker as follows: Connect the coded conductor to the speaker’s positive (“+”) terminal, and the uncoded conductor to negative (“—”). (The “+” and ” markings are in general use, although some speakers use other labeling systems, such as “1” and “2,” “A” and “B” and so on.) Find the appropriate row of speaker connectors on the receiver marked SPEAKER SYSTEM 1 (34). Push in on the red plastic head of the connector marked RIGHT to reveal an opening beneath. Insert the bare end of the coded conductor into the opening. Release the connector. The conductor should now be locked firmly into place. Insert the uncoded conductor ...
