OPERATION

Press the Menu Button to view the slide-in menu:

Music: Navigates the audio materials stored on the iPod.

Photo/Manual: Select this line to view still images stored on a photo-capable iPod. The system will switch to iPod Manual Mode, and control will shift to the iPod. Use the screen and controls on the iPod. The AVR remote may also be used.

To view photos on a video monitor connected to the AVR, select the photo and press the Play Button on the iPod, or press the OK Button on the remote three times.

Videos: Select this line to view videos stored on an iPod that supports video browsing.

NOTES ON VIDEO PLAYBACK:

•As of this writing, video browsing is only supported on the iPod 5G, iPod classic (80GB, 120GB and 160GB), iPod nano 3G and 4G, and iPod touch (when loaded with software version 2 or higher). For other iPod models, it is not possible to view photos (except iPod 4G) or videos on an external monitor while using The Bridge II.

•Before attempting to view photos or videos stored on your iPod, check the Video Settings menu on the iPod and make sure that the TV Out setting is set to On. The TV Signal setting should be NTSC, to match the capabilities of your video display. If your selection was playing and is paused, the iPod requires you to reselect the video for the new

TV Out setting to take effect.

•If you do not see the Videos line in the menu, and the iPod supports video browsing and has video content stored on it, you may need to turn off the AVR, remove the iPod from The Bridge II, reset the iPod, turn the AVR back on and dock the iPod again. This procedure may also help when a video program is selected but the “Now Playing” screen appears instead of the video images.

To exit iPod Manual Mode, with the AVR remote in The Bridge mode, press the Menu Button. To return to a previous menu level on the iPod, press the Back/Exit Button.

Random: Select this setting for random playback, also known as “Shuffle Mode”. Each press of the OK Button switches the setting: shuffle by Song, shuffle by Album, or Off to end random playback.

Repeat: Select this setting to repeat a track or all tracks in the current album or playlist. Each press of the OK Button switches the setting: repeat Off, repeat One or repeat All.

NOTE: The iTunes application allows you to exempt some tracks from Shuffle mode. The AVR 7550HD cannot override this setting.

While a selection is playing, the song title and play mode icon will appear in the front-panel Message Display.

If a video monitor is connected to the AVR 7550HD and the system is not in iPod Manual Mode, the Now Playing screen will appear and display the play mode icon, song title, artist and album. A graphic bar indicates the current play position within the track. If random or

repeat play has been programmed, an icon will appear in the upper right corner.

The screen may disappear from view, depending on the Setup and Slide-In Menus setting in the System Settings menu (described in the Advanced Functions section). Restore the Now Playing screen to view by pressing either of the 7/3 Buttons.

NOTE: It is strongly recommended that you use the screen saver built into your video display to avoid possible damage from “burn-in” that may occur with plasma and many CRT displays when a still image, such as a menu screen, remains on display for an extended period of time.

iPod MANUAL MODE

Press the Menu Button and select Photo/Manual to enter iPod Manual Mode. This is required to view photos stored on the iPod.

The AVR supports audio playback from some applications available for the iPod touch. Place the system in iPod Manual Mode by press- ing the Menu Button and selecting “Photo/Manual”. Then use the controls on the iPod touch to run the application. Due to the wide variety of applications and many factors affecting them, playback is not guaranteed.

While scrolling, hold the key to scroll faster. Use the Page Up/Down control on the remote to scroll a page at a time (not in Manual Mode).

NOTES:

•The Play and Pause functions are not available unless content has been selected for playback.

•To search within a track (not in Manual Mode), press and hold the indicated button. Press the Previous Track Button once to skip to the beginning of the current track. Press the Previous Track Button twice to skip to the beginning of the previous track.

When a slideshow is being displayed, some controls have different effects:

•To pause the slideshow, including any audio track that is playing, press the Pause Button.
