Harman Kardon CITATION 5.1 Owners Manual - Page 20

For Automatic Operation: Make certain that all connections to the Citation Controller or Processor, and to any other Citation power amplifiers in the system have been correctly made as shown on pages 13 through 16. Switch the "manual/remote" toggle switch on the rear panel to the "remote" position. Turn the master power switch ON, position. The LED below the Citation name will turn amber to indicate that the unit is in the "standby" mode with AC power applied. Your Citation 5.1 amplifier will now turn on automatically whenever the processor or controller is switched on. You may verify that your amplifier has been turned on in response to the control signal by noting that the LED below the Citation name will change from amber to blue. There will be a short second pause between the time the signal is applied and the indicator changes color until power is applied to the speakers. This pause is intentional, and it protects your speakers from damage as the amplifier stabilizes. You may also hear a relay click as during start-up. This is also normal. Once your system is turned on, you are ready to enjoy the finest sonic performance available. There are no controls to adjust on the Citation 5.1 amplifier. All volume and level adjustments are made by your preamp, controller or surround processor. There is no need to turn the amplifiers off manually. Simply turn off the Citation Controller or Processor, or the device providing the automatic control voltages and the 5.1 amplifier will go into a standby mode. Turn off and return to a standby mode may be confirmed by noting that the LED indicator under the Citation name on the front panel turns from blue to amber. Important Note: If you will not be using your audio system for an extended period of time, such as a vacation, it is always a good idea to turn the unit off using the rear panel power switch. This will prevent the automatic turn on circuits from accidentally turning the system on during your absence.
