POWER
After plugging in the power cord into the rear panel and wall
outlet, pressing this button connects the TX-DS989 to the AC
mains and turns it on.
• Before turning on the power, make sure all cables are properly
connected.
• Turning on the TX-DS989 may cause a momentary power
surge that might interfere with other electrical equipment on
the same circuit. If this is a problem, plug the TX-DS989 into a
different electrical circuit.
STANDBY/ON
Pressing this button while the main power is turned on the
STANDBY indicator lights up and the front display turns off.
Pressing it again returns it to the standby state. This state turns off
the display, disables control functions, and turns off all outputs to
the main zone (those for the remote zone remain available).
STANDBY indicator
MASTER VOLUME
The MASTER VOLUME knob is used to control the volume for
the main zone. The volume for the remote zone (Zone 2) is
independent.
OPEN/CLOSE
Press this button to open and close the front door that covers the
lower buttons.
DISPLAY
The DISPLAY button is used to display information about the
current input source signal. Each time you press the display
button, the screen changes to show you different information
concerning the input signal. The screen changes as follows:
Program format → Sampling frequency → Digital input → Digital
format → Bass level → Treble level.
If the input source signal does not have any information for a
particular screen, then that screen will be skipped.
• Displaying the data of the current input source
Each display is explained below.
Input Source Buttons (DVD, VIDEO 1–5,
TAPE 1–2, AM, FM, PHONO, and CD)
These buttons are used to select the input source for the main zone.
When an input source is selected, the indicator will light in orange.
To select the input source for the remote zone (Zone 2) or
recording out (Rec Out), first press the Zone 2 or Rec Out button,
and then the desired input source button.

Caution:
The front door of the receiver is motorized. Use the open/close
button to open or close the door. Manually opening or closing
the door, or moving the receiver while holding the door, will
cause the door to malfunction or break.
Rec Out
Press the Rec Out button to output to a recording component for
recording purposes. After pressing the Rec Out button, press one
of the input source selector buttons within 8 seconds to select the
component to record to. When one is selected, the indicator above
that button will light in red. To record from the same input source
that you are using (that is selected for the main zone), press the
Rec Out button twice in succession.
Note:
The Rec Out and Zone 2 buttons use the same circuit and therefore
cannot be used at the same time.
When Rec Out is selected, nothing is output from Zone 2.
Zone 2
The TX-DS989 includes a second signal path separate from the
main one that can be used for a remote zone (Zone 2) or for making
recordings. By connecting an additional amplifier or other video
equipment to the Zone 2 outputs, you can output to a separate
room an input source that is different from that being used in the
main room. This allows you to watch one program in one room
while somebody else is watching a different program in another.
Press the Zone 2 button to enable output to the ZONE 2 outputs.
After pressing the Zone 2 button, press one of the input source
selector buttons within 8 seconds to select the input source for the
remote zone. When one is selected, the indicator above that button
will light in green. To use the same input source for the both the
main and remote zones, press the Zone 2 button twice in
succession.
Note:
The Rec Out and Zone 2 buttons use the same circuit and therefore
cannot be used at the same time.
When Zone 2 is selected, the currently selected input source is
output from the recording terminal.
