make sure that any
operations for the sub zone are done while

your selected sub zone(s) show in the display. If this
is not showing, the front panel controls affect the
main zone only.
3 Use the
INPUT SELECTOR
dial to select the source
for the zone you have selected.
For example,
ZONE 2 CD-R
sends the source connected

If you select
TUNER
, you can use the
TUNER
controls
to select a preset station (see
Saving station presets
on page 36 if you’re unsure how to do this).

dial to adjust the

This is only possible if you selected the

on page 66.

MULTI-ZONE remote controls
The following table shows the possible MULTI-ZONE
remote controls:
Connecting an IR receiver
If you keep your stereo components in a closed cabinet or
shelving unit, or you wish to use the sub zone remote
control in another zone, you can use an optional IR
receiver (such as a Niles or Xantech unit) to control your
system instead of the remote sensor on the front panel of
this receiver.

Note
1 When you use
ZONE 2
, you must set
ZONE 2 / RECSEL Setting
in the
ZONE Audio Setup
menu to
ZONE 2
(page 66).
2 Note that when recording, this also selects the
RECOUT
input source. See
Making an audio or a video recording
on page 70 for more on this.
3 If the receiver is in standby, the display is dimmed, and
ZONE
and your selected sub zone(s) continue to show in the display.

4 The tuner cannot be tuned to more than one station at a time. Therefore, changing the station in one zone also changes the station in the other zone.
Please be careful not to change stations when recording a radio broadcast.
5 The volume levels of the main and sub zones are independent.
6• You won’t be able to switch the main zone off completely unless you’ve switched off the MULTI-ZONE control first.
• If you don’t plan to use the MULTI-ZONE feature for awhile, turn off the power in both the sub and main rooms so that this receiver is in standby.
