Controlling Zone 2/3 with the Remote
Controller
Note
• To control Zone 2/3, you must press the remote controller’s
ZONE first.
• ZONE turns red while Zone 2 is on, and green while Zone 3 is
on.
Note
• Only analog input sources are output by the ZONE 2/3 PRE
OUT and FRONT WIDE/ZONE 2 L/R terminals. Digital input
sources are not output. If no sound is heard when an input source
is selected, check if it’s connected to an analog input.
• You cannot select different AM or FM radio stations for your
main room and Zone 2/3. The same AM/FM radio station will be
heard in each room. For example, if you have an FM station for
the main room, that station will also be used in Zone 2.
• When you connect Zone 2 speakers directly to the AV receiver,
listening modes that require surround back speakers or front high
speakers or front wide speakers (6.1/7.1), such as Dolby Digital
EX, DTS-ES, THX Select2 Cinema, Dolby Pro Logic IIz
Height, and Audyssey DSX™ are unavailable.
• When the input selector of Zone 2/3 is selected, power consump-
tion on standby mode slightly increases.
• While Zone 2/3 is on, functions will not work.
