You can now use your TuneCommand AV Remote Control to control the iPod’s play/
pause, skip forward, skip backward, and volume up/down functions. In addition, you
can conveniently control the shuffle and repeat functions, using the two small round
buttons. Each press of a button advances the setting to the next stage. When used with
the iPod video, nano, or photo, TuneCommand AV lets you scroll through your videos
(iPod video only), slideshows, or presentations, wirelessly!
NOTE:
• Slideshows must be started manually on the iPod before the TV will display them
When using the iPod video:
• Videos must be placed in a playlist in order to use the
Remote Control (play/pause, forward/back, etc.)
• The iPod video settings need to be switched to “TV Out > NTSC or PAL”
The shuffle key (
) advances the iPod’s shuffle settings as follows:
shuffle off > shuffle songs > shuffle albums.
The repeat button (
) advances the iPod’s repeat settings like this:
repeat off > repeat one > repeat all.
Follow the icons on the iPod’s screen to see the current settings, represented by small
icons on the upper right, below the battery-status indicator.

Every time you push a button on the Remote Control, the green lights on the Remote
Control and the Dock will blink, indicating that the signal has been received correctly.
If the Remote Control and the Dock are too far apart to communicate, the light on the
Remote Control blinks orange (after a short delay) instead of green when you press a
button. The light on the Dock will not blink.
The Remote Control’s battery level is automatically checked after every button press.
If the battery level is low, the Remote Control’s red light will blink, following the green
or amber blink. If you see this happen, the low battery should be replaced soon with a
new one of the same type (CR 2032). Your TuneCommand AV will continue to function
normally until the battery is exhausted.
