Thank you for choosing a Harman Kardon
This quick-start guide contains all the information you need to connect and set up your
new BDS Blu-ray Disc ™ receiver.
To conserve our natural resources, your BDS receiver does not include a printed
owner's manual. An owner's manual containing complete information about operating
all of your new Blu-ray Disc receiver's features is available at our Web site. Go to www.
harmankardon.com and download the BDS Blu-ray Disc Receiver Owner's Manual.
Your BDS receiver is designed to be compatible with region management
information that is encoded on most Blu-ray Disc and DVD recordings. Your
receiver will only play discs that contain region coding for the area where your
receiver was shipped and intended for sale:
Area Where Sold
USA, Canada
Europe, Middle East
Korea, S.E. Asia
Mexico, Latin America
Australia, New Zeland
Russia, India
China
For example, BDS receivers shipped to and sold in the USA will only play Blu-ray
Discs that contain region code A and DVD discs that contain region code 1.

CAUTION: Before making any connections to the BDS receiver, ensure that the
receiver's AC cord is unplugged from the receiver and the AC outlet. Making
speaker connections with the receiver plugged in and turned on could damage
your speakers.
Your BDS receiver has color-coded speaker terminals:
BDS 275/BDS 277
white left channel (+)
red right channel (+)
black (–) on both channels
BDS 575/BDS 577
white front left (+)
red front right (+)
blue surround left (+)
gray surround right (+)
green center (+)
black (–) on all channels
Most speakers use red to denote the (+) terminal and black for the (–) terminal. Be sure
to connect each speaker identically: (+) on the speaker to (+) on the receiver and (–) on
the speaker to (–) on the receiver. Miswiring one or more speakers results in thin sound,
weak bass and a poor stereo image.
