step three: Place the black insert in The Bridge II,  
making sure to push it all the way down. See Figure 3.  
InstallIng  
With only a single cable connection, The Bridge II is  
easy to connect to your Harman Kardon product.  
nOtE: Do not place an iPod in The Bridge II unless  
both the black insert and a dock adapter are installed.  
Otherwise, the iPod will not connect properly, and  
both it and the Bridge II may sustain damage that  
is not covered by the warranty.

or The Bridge II-ready product, using its master power  
switch.

-Ready Products A different con-  
nector was used on The Bridge-ready Harman Kardon  
products and the HK3490, as shown in Figure 2. Do  
not plug The Bridge II directly into the DMP/The Bridge  
connector on the rear panel of these products. First,  
connect the included adapter to The Bridge II cable,  
then plug the adapter into the product.  
step Four: Locate the dock adapter that was  
included with your iPod, or select one of the included  
clear dock adapters by referring to Table 1. If your iPod  
is an older model that does not appear in Table 1 and  
that did not include an adapter, contact Apple Inc. to  
purchase one.  
Place the adapter in The Bridge II insert, as shown  
in Figure 3.  
step Five: Remove the iPod from any case, and  
dock it in The Bridge II, as shown in Figure 3.

OPERATIOn  
Photos may be viewed on an external monitor only for  
iPod models that support video browsing (see note  
below). Select the desired photo, then press the play  
button on the iPod, or press the OK or Enter Button on  
the remote three times.  
UsIng  
Once The Bridge II is connected, use either the front-  
panel controls or The Bridge-ready product’s remote  
control to select tracks for playback. Press the DMP/  
The Bridge Button on the remote, or use the Source  
Selector on the front panel to change sources. When  
an iPod is docked, a message will appear in the  
front-panel and on-screen displays, indicating that  
The Bridge II is connected. The displays will switch to  
the navigation menus, and the menu screen on the  
iPod itself will be replaced by a Harman Kardon logo  
graphic and a message reading “OK to Disconnect.”  
To view videos, when available on an iPod that sup-  
ports video browsing, press the Menu Button and  
select the “Videos” option. For The Bridge II-ready  
products, the iPod will remain in Extended Mode. Use  
the AVR remote and the on-screen menus to select  
video content. For The Bridge-ready products, the  
iPod may switch to Manual Mode. Use the Harman  
Kardon remote or the controls on the iPod with the  
screen on the iPod to view videos.  
When you see the “OK to Disconnect” message displayed,  
the iPod is in Extended Mode and may be operated  
using the Harman Kardon product’s front-panel or  
remote controls. The controls for most The Bridge- and  
The Bridge II-ready products are described in Table 2.  
The blank boxes indicate that the function is not  
available using those controls. Because the specifics  
of operation vary by product, please review the owner’s  
manual for detailed information.  
To return to Extended Mode from Manual Mode, press and  
hold the Menu Button on the receiver’s remote control.  
nOtEs On VIDEO PlaYBaCK:  
• As of this writing, video browsing is only supported  
on the iPod 5G, iPod classic and iPod nano (3rd gen-  
eration). For other iPod models (except the iPod 4G),  
it is not possible to view photos or videos on an  
external monitor with The Bridge II. However, you  
may purchase an A/V cable from Apple Inc. that  
has conventional audio and video plugs that may be  
connected to any available  
While a selection is playing, the song title, artist and  
album name (if available) will scroll across the upper  
line in the front-panel Message Display. The lower line  
will display the elapsed time of the track on the left, the  
play mode icon, and the time remaining on the right.  
analog inputs on the AVR.  
If a video display is connected to the Harman Kardon  
product, the available track information will appear there  
as well, along with the time and play mode displays.  
• Before attempting to play videos stored on your iPod,  
check that the TV Out setting on the iPod is set to On.  
Adjust any other settings on the iPod as appropriate  
for your system. If your selection was playing and  
paused at the time you changed the TV Out setting,  
the iPod may require you to navigate its menu system  
and reselect the video. Resuming play from the  
“Now Playing” function may not reflect the change  
to the TV Out setting.  
Some Harman Kardon The Bridge- and The Bridge  
II-ready products include a settings menu that allows  
you to select Repeat or Random playback or Resume  
mode. Refer to the product’s manual for more infor-  
mation.  
Playback of photos, when available, is different from  
audio playback. Press the Menu Button and select the  
photo option to switch to Manual Mode. In Manual  
Mode, the iPod may be operated using its own controls  
or the receiver’s remote, and its menus will appear  
in place of the Harman Kardon logo and “OK to  
Disconnect” message. The menus generated by the  
receiver while using The Bridge II do not appear in  
Manual Mode.  
• In Manual Mode, the menus for the iPod will only be  
visible on its screen. You may operate the iPod using  
the receiver’s remote, as long as it is in The Bridge  
device mode.

OPERATIOn  
Charging the iPod  
Undocking the iPod  
You may leave your iPod in The Bridge II even when  
you are not using it as a playback source. Whenever  
the iPod is docked and your receiver is turned on,  
The Bridge II will charge the battery in the iPod.  
We recommend that you pause playback before  
physically removing the iPod from The Bridge II.  
IMPORtant nOtE: When using The Bridge II  
with the DMC 1000, do not remove the iPod from  
The Bridge II without first selecting the “Undock iPod”  
option in the on-screen menu.  
Some Harman Kardon receivers allow you to charge  
the battery in the iPod when the receiver is turned off  
(i.e., in the “Standby” mode). Consult your receiver’s  
owner’s manual for more information.
