Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged easily by static electricity. Such components commonly are called Electrostatically Sensitive (ES) Devices. Examples of typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some field effect transistors and semiconductor "chip" components. The following techniques should be used to help reduce the incidence of component damage caused by static electricity. 1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain off any electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and wear a commercially available discharging wrist strap device, which should be removed for potential shock reasons prior to applying power to the unit under test. 2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ES devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface such as aluminum foil, to prevent electrostatic charge build-up or exposure of the assembly. 3. Use only a grounded-tip soldering iron to solder or unsolder ES devices. 4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device. Some solder removal devices not classified as "anti-static" can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES devices. 5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical change sufficient to damage ES devices. 6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protective package until immediately before you are ready to install it. (Most replacement ES devices are packaged with leads electrically shorted together by conductive foam, aluminum foil or comparable conductive material.) 7. Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement ES device, touch the protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed. CAUTION : Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or circuit, and observe all other safety precautions. 8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged replacement ES devices. (Otherwise harmless motion such as the brushing together or your clothes fabric or the lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate static electricity sufficient to damage an ES devices.

Each precaution in this manual should be followed during servicing. Components identified with the IEC symbol in the parts list are special significance to safety. When replacing a component identified with

, use only the replacement parts designated, or parts with the same ratings or resistance, wattage, or voltage that are designated in the parts list in this manual. Leakage-current or resistance measurements must be made to determine that exposed parts are acceptably insulated from the supply circuit before retuming the product to the customer.

Before returning the unit to the user, perform the following safety checks :

1. Inspect all lead dress to make certain that leads are not pinched or that hardware is not lodged between the chassis and other metal parts in the unit. 2. Be sure that any protective devices such as nonmetallic control knobs, insulating fishpapers, cabinet backs, adjustment and compartment covers or shields, isolation resistor-capacity networks, mechanical insulators, etc. Which were removed for the servicing are properly re-installed. 3. Be sure that no shock hazard exists ; check for leakage current using Simpson Model 229 Leakage Tester, standard equipment item No. 21641, RCA Model WT540A or use alternate method as follows : Plug the power cord directly Into a 120 volt AC receptacle (do not use an Isolation Transformer for this test). Using two clip leads, connect a 1500 ohms, 10watt Resistor paralleled by a 0.15uF capacitor, in series with all exposed metal cabinet parts and a known earth ground, such as a water pipe or conduit. Use a VTVM or VOM with 1000 ohms per volt, or higher sensitivity to measure the AC voltage drop across the resistor. (See diagram) Move the resistor connection to each exposed metal part having a return path to the chassis (antenna, metal, cabinet, screw heads, knobs and control shafts, escutcheon, etc.) and measure the AC voltage drop across the resistor. (This test should be performed with the 0.35 volt RMS or more is excessive and indicates a potential shock hazard which must be corrected before returning the unit to the owner.

Service bulletin # H/K2000-06 April 2000 To: All harman/kardon Service Centers Models: AVR7000 Subject: Switched AC Accessory Outlet Dead

Service Bulletin
Warranty labor rate: MINOR repair

The Switched AC Accessory Outlets on the AVR7000 are used to power up any low-wattage device when the AVR7000 is switched on with the System Power Control. Ordinarily this means CD players, DVD players, Tape Decks, etc. or any device not exceeding 100 watts per outlet. These accessory outlets are not intended to be used with higher-power devices such as television sets, power amplifiers or powered subwoofers. However, under some circumstances, even the use of a recommended device connected to the AVR7000's Switched AC Accessory Outlets may briefly exceed the current rating of the internal 1A AC accessory fuse, and blow the fuse. In the event you receive an AVR7000 with the complaint "The switched AC accessory outlet at the rear of my receiver is dead", perform the following procedure: 1) Remove the top cover, (16 Black Phillips screws). 2) Locate F451, a 1A GMC (5 x 20mm) fuse at the rear corner of the unit, where the AC power cord enters the rear cover. Remove it and replace with a 3.15A GMC (5 x 20mm) Slo-Blo fuse, h/k part# 5508302735 . Original fuse can be extracted with a pair of long-nosed pliers. 3) Replace the top cover. 4) Test the Switched AC Accessory Outlets by connecting a low power device, such as a CD player, DVD player, or Tape Deck and assure the unit powers up normally when the AVR7000 System Power Control is switched on.

Service bulletin # H/K2002-06 October 2002 To: All harman/kardon Service Centers Model: AVR7000 Subject: Low or No Output from Subwoofer Output Jack

Service Bulletin
Warranty labor rate: MINOR repair

In the event you receive an AVR7000 receiver with the complaint "There is little or no output from the subwoofer output jack, to drive my powered subwoofer", follow the instructions below: 1) Check to make sure the AVR7000 is configured correctly for Subwoofer Output: a) You will need a Video display (monitor or TV set, composite connection) connected to one of the "Monitor Out" jacks at the rear of the AVR7000, to view the on-screen menu for these steps. b) You will need a source, in this case a CD player, connected with RCA cables (Analog) to the CD input jacks at the rear of the AVR7000. A Compact Disc with ample bass information should be inserted in the CD player. c) Connect a powered subwoofer to the Subwoofer Output Jack on the AVR7000. d) With the AVR7000 turned ON, select input: Press the CD button on the remote control. The words CD Player should appear in the display panel, as well as being indicated in the front panel Input Indicators, by the green LED next to "CD" on the right-hand side of the panel. e) Select Dolby Pro Logic: Press the OSD button on the remote control to bring up the AUDIO SET UP menu. Press the 6 button until the cursor is next to the SURROUND SETUP menu. Press the Set button so that the SURROUND SETUP menu is on-screen. Since the factory default for all inputs is Stereo, the words SURR OFF should initially appear. To change, press the 4 buttons until DOLBY PRO LOGIC appears. A green LED will also light next to the DOLBY PRO LOGIC in the Surround Mode Indicators on the left side of the front panel. f) Press the 6 button until the cursor is next to RETURN TO MENU; press the Set button. You should be back to the AUDIO SET UP menu. Move the cursor with the 6 button until it's on the SPEAKER SETUP line, then press the Set button to bring up the SPEAKER SETUP menu. For the first three lines on the menu, the word SMALL should appear on the right side. If the word LARGE appears in any of the lines, press the 6 button on the remote until it's next to any line you need to change, and then press the4button until SMALL appears. (When SMALL is selected, low frequency sounds will be sent only to the subwoofer output.) g) Make sure for the line SUBWOOFER, the word YES appears. If NO is there, press the 6 button on the remote until it's next to the SUBWOOFER line; press the4button until the word YES appears. h) Press the OSD button on the remote control again, if desired, to turn off the On-Screen Display. i) Turn on the CD player and play the CD, with the AVR7000 volume at a reasonable level, with the powered subwoofer turned ON, with its volume control also turned up to a reasonable level. Has this solved the problem ? If NO, proceed to step #2. 2) Check for sufficient solder on pin 5 of IC121. IC121 is an Op Amp (NJM5532M) on the DSP PCB. CAUTION: THE AVR7000 CIRCUITS ARE ELECTROSTATICALLY SENSITIVE. TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE RECEIVER, FOLLOW PROPER STATIC CONTROL PROCEDURES. a) Remove the top cover, (16 Black Phillips screws). You should be working at the rear of the receiver. b) Unplug the white ribbon cable from the rear of the DSP PCB (see figure 1) c) Remove (13) black screws from the rear of the AVR7000 holding the Video and DSP PCB's (see figure 2). d) On the top of the Video PCB, remove the (3) remaining screws (2 black and 1 plated) holding the Video PCB to the chassis; remove the single black screw holding the bracket support to the DSP PCB. e) Unplug the small, white, 2-pin molex connector snaking across the top of the Video PCB. f) Loosen (do not remove) the 2 remaining bracket support screws at the bottom of the bracket, at the bottom of the AVR7000 chassis; you should now be able to push the bracket back far enough to be able to remove both the Video and DSP PCB's when necessary.

g) Disengage the Video PCB from its rear connector (CP601) by pushing back on the rear PCB; lift the Video PCB up and out of the unit. It should still have an amber-colored 8 pin connector attached. Set the PCB aside and out of the way. h) Remove the (2) remaining screws (1 plated, 1 black) holding the DSP PCB to the chassis. The black screw will loosen a small aluminum heatsink (for IC100); remove it. i) Disengage the DSP PCB from its rear connector (CP401) by pushing back on the rear PCB; lift the DSP PCB up and out of the unit; turn it upside down. It should still have an amber-colored 15 pin connector attached. j) Locate IC121 (see figure 3) and resolder if needed. k) Replace parts in reverse order; remember to re-tighten the bottom bracket screws and replace the heatsink. CAUTION: At the rear screws, if using a power tool, use care and minimum effort to avoid damaging the various plastic receptacles. l) Test the unit by following steps (a ­ i) in section 1.

Troubleshooting tips and solutions to common service problems

1. Make sure the batteries in the remote are installed correctly. (Plus and minus to correct terminals) 2. Make sure the area between the remote control and receiver is not blocked by some object, and the distance is no more than 15 feet at an angle no greater than 30 degrees from the front of the receiver. 3. Make sure strong lighting is not directed towards the IR sensor of the receiver. 4. Press each button on the remote and verify proper operation. If these steps are taken and remote control still does not function properly - Probable Cause: Factory-supplied batteries. Solution: 1. Remove the batteries from the remote. Leave batteries out of the remote for a minimum of three minutes. This ensures the internal capacitors discharge, allowing the CPU in the remote to re-boot. 2. Reinstall new alkaline batteries (major brand recommended). 3. Press the AVR button and the Mute button at the same time until the red light illuminates under AVR. 4. Enter the numbers 0-0-1 on the numerical keypad. 5. Press the AVR button again. Test the remote control. It should be functioning properly once this is completed.
