ZONE ‘Z’
Use the Z (zone) function via the remote control - For use in a second audio zone, your receiver comes
equipped with a fully independent 2-channel analog pre-amp. The easiest way to control this second zone is with
a dedicated Zone 2 (the factory default zone ID setting of Zone B is 2) remote available from B&K and other
universal remote suppliers. However, you may also control your unit’s second zone from the Zone 1 remote via its
“Z” button.
From Remote From Front Panel Action
1 B&K See Zone 2 operation make sure remote is in B&K mode
2 Z See Zone 2 operation select alternate zone control
3 2 See Zone 2 operation select desired zone
Normally, your second zones’ zone ID will be set to 2. However, because it is possible to change the zone ID,
(see Advanced settings) enter the current Zone B zone ID here to get control of the second zone. If the zone ID is
10 or larger hit +10 followed by the second digit to gain control.
After a few seconds of inactivity, control will automatically revert to Zone 1. If you don’t wish to wait, just press Z
then 1. You may also control Zone 2 from a remote control or front panel via the menu system. See Zone 2

PRESETS
Presets allow you to save your favorite settings and recall them instantly. Your receiver can store two banks of 40
presets (0...39) in each of 2 Zones. The saved information includes the selected audio source, selected video
source, volume, the audio mode and number of speakers, the tuner station and band settings, and all of the
temporary settings and overrides described previously. A convenient set of 10 presets come preprogrammed with
your receiver.
