player they will change to the next or previous track.
` Transport Controls: These buttons do not have
any functions for the AVR 140, but they may be
programmed for the forward/reverse play operation
of a wide variety of CD or DVD players, and audio or
video cassette recorders.
When the DMP/ The Bridge source is in use, these but-
TM
tons may be used to operate some functions on a
compatible iPod if it is docked in The Bridge. See

When the remote is used to control the AVR, or the
VID2 or VID3 device, these buttons are programmed
by default to operate the DVD player. However, you
may use the Transport Control Punch-Through feature
described on page 40 to reprogram these buttons to
operate another device's transport controls when AVR,
VID2 or VID3 has been selected.
Stereo Mode Select Button: When the button
is pressed so that SURROUND OFF appears in
the Lower Display Line ı, with only the Surr Off
Surround Mode Indicator ˆ lit, the AVR will oper-
