UP-A1 series Dock for iPod—Continued

Operating Notes:

Before selecting a different input source, stop iPod playback to prevent the AV receiver from selecting the iPod input source by mistake.

If any accessories are connected to your iPod, the AV receiver may not be able to select the input source properly.

While your iPod is in the UP-A1 series Dock, its vol- ume control has no effect. If you adjust your iPod models volume control while it’s in the UP-A1 series Dock, make sure it’s not set too high before you recon- nect your headphones.

Using Your iPod models Alarm Clock

You can use your iPod models Alarm Clock function to automatically turn on your iPod and the AV receiver at a specified time. The AV receiver’s input source will auto- matically be set to the [PORT] selector.

Notes:

To use this function, your iPod must be in the UP-A1 series Dock, and the UP-A1 series Dock must be con- nected to the AV receiver.

When you use this function, be sure to set the AV receiver’s volume control to a suitable level.

The AV receiver may take several seconds to startup, so you might not hear the first few seconds of the first song.

Charging Your iPod models Battery

The UP-A1 series Dock charges your iPod models bat- tery while your iPod is in the UP-A1 series Dock and connected to the UNIVERSAL PORT jacks on the AV receiver. While your iPod is seated in the UP-A1 series Dock, its battery will be charged when the AV receiver is set to “On” or “Standby”.

Note:

When UP-A1 series Dock that seated iPod is connected, the power consumption on standby mode slightly increases.
