ENGLISH

Unpacking

The carton and shipping materials used to protect your new player during shipment were

specially designed to cushion it from shock and vibration. We suggest that you save the

carton and packing materials for use in shipping if you move or if the unit ever needs

repair.

To minimize the size of the carton in storage, you may wish to ﬂatten it. You can do it by

carefully slitting the tape seams on the carton’s bottom and collapsing it. You can store

cardboard inserts in the same manner. Packing materials that cannot be collapsed should

be saved along with the carton in a plastic bag.

If you do not wish to save the packaging materials, please note that the carton and

other sections of the shipping-protection materials are recyclable. Please respect the

environment and discard those materials at a local recycling center.

Remove the protective plastic ﬁlm from the front-panel lens. Leaving the ﬁlm in place will

affect the performance of your remote control.

Installation Location

• To ensure proper operation and to avoid the potential for safety hazards, place

the unit on a ﬁrm and level surface. When placing the unit on a shelf, be certain

that the shelf and any mounting hardware can support the weight of the product.

• Provide proper space both above and below the unit for ventilation. If this product

will be installed in a cabinet or other enclosed area, make certain that there is

sufﬁcient air movement within the area. Under some circumstances, a fan may

be required.

• Do not place the unit directly on a carpeted surface.

• Avoid installation in extremely hot or cold locations, or in an area that is exposed to

direct sunlight or heating equipment.

• Avoid moist or humid locations.

• Do not obstruct the ventilation slots on the top and sides of the unit or place objects

directly over or next to them.

• Do not place the BDT 3/BDT 30 directly on top of a product that generates

excessive heat.

• Due to the heat generated by the player and other components in your system,

there is the remote possibility that the rubber padding on the bottom of the unit’s

feet may leave marks on certain wood or wood-veneer materials. Use caution

when placing the unit on soft woods or other materials that heat or heavy objects

may damage. Some surface ﬁnishes may be particularly sensitive to absorbing

such marks, due to a variety of factors beyond Harman Kardon control, including

the nature of the ﬁnish, cleaning materials used, normal heat and vibration caused

by the use of the product, or other factors. Your warranty will not cover this type of

damage to furniture, so exercise caution in choosing an installation location for the

component and in performing normal maintenance practices.

• Your new Harman Kardon Blu-ray Disc

™

player requires a broadband Internet

connection for BD-Live

™

interactivity.

Cleaning

• When the unit gets dirty, wipe it with a clean, soft, dry cloth. If necessary, and only

after unplugging the AC power cord, wipe it with a soft cloth dampened with mild

soapy water, then a fresh cloth with clean water. Wipe it dry immediately with a

dry cloth. NEVER use benzene, aerosol cleaners, paint thinner, alcohol or any other

volatile cleaning agent. Do not use abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the

ﬁnish of metal parts. Avoid spraying insecticide near the unit.

Please register your product on our Web site at

NOTE: See Connecting the Player, on page 10, for detailed information about

making connections.

Main Power Switch: This mechanical switch turns the BDT 3/BDT 30’s power

supply on or off. After you have made and veriﬁed all connections (see Connecting

the Player, on page 10), set this switch to the “On” position. If you will not be using

the player for an extended period of time, you can set this switch to the “Off” position

to save energy.

Power Cord Connector: After you have made and veriﬁed all other connections,

plug the supplied AC power cord into this input and into an unswitched AC outlet.

Network Connector: To be able to use the BD-Live feature, connect this port to

your local area network (LAN) using a Cat. 5/Cat. 5e/RJ45 network cable. See

BD-Live Interactivity, on page 15, for more information.

Coaxial Digital Output Connector: Connect this output to the coaxial digital input

of your audio/video receiver or surround-sound processor. NOTE: If your audio/video

receiver or surround-sound processor has an HDMI connection, we recommend

an HDMI connection, we recommend using it for superior video quality.

HDMI Output Connector: Connect the BDT player’s HDMI Output connector to the

HDMI input on your TV, audio/video receiver or surround-sound processor. The HDMI

cable transmits both video and audio, so if you’re connecting it directly to the TV

and are connecting the BDT 3/BDT 30’s Coaxial Digital Output connector to a home

theater audio system, we recommend that you disable the BDT 3/BDT 30’s HDMI

Audio Out to take full advantage of the home theater audio system’s superior audio

performance. See Audio Settings: Audio Output, on page 13, for more information.

IMPORTANT: Your BDT 3/BDT 30 is in compliance with HDCP (High-Deﬁnition Copy

Protection). Your TV must also be HDCP-compliant to be used with the player’s HDMI

output. For the best results, we do not recommend HDMI connections in excess

of ten feet without a repeater. If your TV has a DVI input, you may use an optional

HDMI-to-DVI cable or adapter for the video connection to the TV. (The DVI connection

is video-only.)

Fan Vents: The BDT 3/BDT 30 has a built-in fan to provide cooling air. To insure

proper operation, make sure that these vents are not blocked.

TV’s or audio/video receiver’s composite video input.

Network Connection

Use a Cat. 5/RJ45 network cable (not supplied) to connect the BDT 3/BDT 30’s Net-

work connector directly to a network router, a network switch, a network modem or an

Ethernet network wall jack that has Internet access. NOTE: The BDT 3/BDT 30 cannot

access content on other networked devices. The network connection enables the BDT 3/

BDT 30’s BD-Live features. See BD-Live Interactivity, on page 15, for more information.

Power Cord Connector

The BDT 3/BDT 30 comes with a detachable AC power cord. This type of cord makes it

easier for you to install and connect all other system wiring to the player’s rear panel.

NOTES:

• The power requirement for the BDT 3/BDT 30 is 110 – 240V AC, 50/60Hz, 25W.

Connecting to a power source other than the one listed may damage the player or

cause abnormal operation.

• Before connecting the AC power cord to a wall outlet, conﬁrm that all of the other

connections have been made correctly.

• Connect the female end of the BDT 3/BDT 30’s detachable power cord to the

player’s Power Cord connector. Plug the other end into a working, unswitched

AC outlet.

Set the BDT 3/BDT 30’s Main Power switch in the “On” position. The player’s Power

indicator will turn amber, indicating that the player is in the Standby mode.

Preparing the Remote Control

Installing the Batteries

Your BDT 3/BDT 30 remote control uses two AAA batteries (supplied). Insert the batteries

as shown in the illustration, making sure to observe the correct polarity.

–

Using the Remote Control

When using the remote, remember to aim it toward the player’s front panel. Make sure

that no objects, such as furniture, block the remote’s view of the player. Bright lights,

ﬂuorescent lights and plasma video displays may interfere with the function of the

remote.

• The remote has a range of about 20 feet (6.1m), depending on the lighting

conditions.

• You can use the remote at an angle of up to 30° from either side of the player.

If the remote does not seem to be operating properly, make sure that the batteries are

inserted correctly. If the remote still does not operate properly, replace both batteries

with new ones.

• To keep the disc clean, handle the disc by its edge. Do not touch the surface.

• Do not stick paper or tape on the disc. If there is glue (or a similar substance) on

the disc, remove the substance completely before using the disc.

• Do not expose the disc to direct sunlight or heat sources such as hot air ducts, or

leave it in a car parked in direct sunlight, as there can be a considerable rise in

temperature inside the car.

• After playing, store the disc in its case.

• Do not write on the label side with a ballpoint pen or other sharp writing utensils.

• Be careful not to drop or bend the disc.

Disc Cleaning Precautions

• Before playing, clean the disc with a cleaning cloth. Wipe the disc from the center

out.

• Do not use solvents such as benzene, paint thinner, commercially available

cleaners or anti-static spray intended for vinyl LPs.

Regional Coding

BDT 3 players are designed only for playback of discs with Blu-Ray Disc Region Code

A and DVD Region Code 1 information, or for discs that do not contain any Region Code

information. BDT 30 players are designed only for playback of discs with Blu-ray Disc

Region Code B and DVD Region Code 2 information, or for discs that do not contain

Region Code information.

If there is a Region Code on a disc other than the one your BDT player is designed for, it

will not play in your BDT player.

Audio-visual material may consist of copyrighted works, which must not be recorded

without the permission of the owner of the copyright. Please refer to relevant laws

covering copyright protection.

Copy Protection

Your BDT player is in compliance with HDCP (High-Deﬁnition Copy Protection). A video

display connected via the HDMI Output connector must be HDCP-compliant.

The BDT player incorporates copy-protection technology. On Blu-ray Disc media and DVD

discs that include a copy-protection code, if the contents of the disc are copied using a

VCR, the copy-protection code prevents the videotape copy from playing normally.

Supported Disc Formats

The BDT player can play the following types of discs (in 5"/12cm and 3"/8cm size):

• BD-Video (single-layer or double-layer)

• DVD-Video

• DVD+R/+RW

• DVD-R/-RW

• CDDA (CD digital audio)

• CD-R/RW

NOTE: The compatibility and performance of dual-layer discs is not guaranteed.

Supported Media Codecs

The disc player can play media recorded in the following audio/video codecs:

• MPEG 1, Layer 1

• MPEG 2, Layer 2

• MPEG 2, Layer 3

• H.264

• VC-1

• AAC

• MP3 (from CD-R/RW, DVD+R/+RW, BD-R/RE and USB)

• JPEG (from CD-R/RW, DVD+R/+RW, BD-R/RE and USB)

• DivX 3.x/4.x/5.x (from CD-R/RW, DVD+R/+RW and USB)

NOTE: Due to differences in the formats of certain discs, it is possible that some

discs may include a mix of features, some of which are not compatible with the

BDT 3/BDT 30. Similarly, although Blu-ray Disc recordings and DVDs are capable of a

wide range of features, not all discs include every capability of its system. For example,

although the player is compatible with multi-angle discs, that feature operates only when

the disc is specially encoded for multiple-angle play. To make certain that a speciﬁc

feature or soundtrack option is available, please check the options noted on the disc

jacket.

Playback capability of recordable discs may vary due to variations in the quality of the

disc and the recorder used to create the disc.

1. Press the Home button. The Home menu will appear.

2. Select CD data disc or USB. The Photo, Music and Video folders will appear.

3. Select the type of ﬁle you want to create the playlist for. You can create a playlist for

in the playlist for that ﬁle type, highlight it and press the Options button. The playlist

options box will appear.

5. To add the item to the playlist, select “Add to Playlist.”

6. Repeat steps 4 – 5 for all items that you want to add to the playlist.

To create a playlist for a different ﬁle type, repeat steps 1 – 6; but in step 3, select a

different ﬁle type.

To Play a Playlist

1. Press the Home button. The Home menu will appear.

Troubleshooting

If your BDT 3/BDT 30 isn’t performing the way you think it should, check to see if the problem is covered in this section before calling your dealer or contacting Harman Kardon

Customer Service.

Problem Solution

The player won’t power up (the Power indicator is not lit): • Check that the player’s AC power cord is properly plugged into the player’s Power

Cord connector.

• Check that the player’s AC power cord is plugged into a working AC outlet and that

the AC outlet is not controlled by a switch.

• Make sure that the Master Power switch (on the player’s rear panel) is in the “On”

position.

The disc does not play: • Check that the disc is inserted correctly (label side up).

• Check that the disc is the correct type: BD-Video (single-layer or double-layer),

DVD-Video, DVD+R/+RW, DVD-R/-RW, CDDA (CD digital audio), CD-R/RW. Other

disc types will not play.

No picture: • Check the connection between the player and the TV.

• Check that the TV is turned on and that it is set to the correct input source.

• Conﬁrm that all of the choices made in the Display Settings menu are correct for

your TV.

• Check that the TV is HDCP-compliant. The player cannot be used with a TV that is

not HDCP-compliant.

No sound: • Check that the HDMI and/or coaxial digital connections are properly made.

• If you’re using the coaxial digital connection, check that the digital audio settings on

the connected device have been properly set.

• If you’re using only the HDMI connection, check that the HDMI audio settings on the

connected device have been properly set.

• If you’re using only the HDMI connection, check that the BDT 3/BDT 30’s HDMI

Audio Output is set to “On.”

The picture appears in the wrong aspect ratio: • Change the Aspect Ratio setting in the Display Settings menu to match the TV.

There is noise or other interference in the picture while playing a Blu-ray Disc

recording or DVD:

• Check that the disc surface is clean and not scratched.

Cannot access media on a connected USB device: • Check that the device is formatted in the FAT32 ﬁle system. Other ﬁle systems are

not compatible with the BDT 3/BDT 30.

The player does not respond to remote-control commands: • Replace both remote-control batteries with fresh ones, and make sure that they are

installed correctly.

• Hold the remote control closer to the player.

• Check that the player’s remote sensor is in the remote control’s line of sight.

• Make sure that the protective shipping ﬁlm has been removed from the player’s

front panel.

The Ø symbol appears on the screen when you press a remote-control button: • The selected function is not permitted at the time you press the button.

The player does not respond to commands, or it behaves in an erratic way: • Unplug the player’s power cord from the AC outlet, wait 30 seconds, and plug it

back in.
