Using the remote control

CR-389 Remote Control

The CR-389 remote control gives access to all functions
available on the front panel of the A70. It also has
controls to operate Arcam CD players, AM/FM tuners and
DAB tuners. The remote control transmits Philips RC-5
type codes.

Source selection buttons

These operate in the same way as the source

selectors on the front panel of your integrated

amplifier.

Volume and (mute)

Press

to increase volume or

–

to decrease the output

volume of the amplifier.
Press to mute the speaker connections and preamp
outputs. Both tape outputs and the headphone socket
remain active. Mute is disabled either by pressing
again, or by adjusting the volume.
You can use the remote’s volume control in conjunction
with the

SELECT

button to adjust balance, tone and

amplifier settings.

TUNER

These buttons are used to control tuner functions.

Note that the

FM/DAB

lights indicate into which mode

you are switching the remote control. The lights only

illuminate for five seconds to conserve battery power.

If neither light is illuminated this does not mean that

the remote control is not working!

NOTE: Remember to install the two supplied AAA
batteries before trying to use your remote control!
Do not place anything in front of the IR receiver on
the left of the A70, or the remote control may not
work.

CD controls

These offer basic controls of Arcam CD players

SP1 and SP2

These buttons allow you to select and deselect the main
(

SP1

) and secondary (

SP2

) sets of speakers attached to

your amplifier (see page 6).

Power/Standby

Toggles the amplifier between standby mode and full
power mode. The power indicator light next to the power
button on the front panel is red if the amplifier is in
standby, amber while the amplifier is powering up (this
only takes a few seconds) and green when the amplifier
is powered up.

��

DISP (display)

Cycles through the settings ‘Bright’, ‘Off’ and ‘Dim’.
Turning the display ‘Off’ generally gives a slight
improvement in sound quality.

SELECT

Performs same function as the

SELECT

button on the

front panel. It allows you to use the remote’s volume

switch in the same way you use the control dial on

the front panel – to adjust various amplifier settings

(see page 8).

Note that pressing + corresponds to turning the

Control knob clockwise, – to anticlockwise.

ENTER

Performs the same function as the

ENTER

button on the front panel (see page 6).

(UP and DOWN)

These buttons do not apply to the A70.
