Adjusting the Volume for Zone 2
To Mute Zone 2:
Press the remote controller’s [ZONE 2] button, followed
by the [MUTING] button. To unmute Zone 2, press the
remote controller’s [ZONE 2] button again, followed by
the [MUTING] button, or adjust the volume for Zone 2.
Notes:
• Only analog input sources are output by the ZONE 2
LINE OUT and ZONE 2 SPEAKERS terminals. Dig-
ital input sources are not output. If no sound is heard
when an input source is selected, check if it’s con-
nected to an analog input.
• While Zone 2 is being used, listening modes that need
surround back speakers (i.e., Dolby Digital EX and
DTS-ES) are unavailable.
• While Zone 2 is on, functions will not work.
• You can’t select different radio stations for Zone 2 and
the main room. For example, if you have an FM sta-
tion for the main room, that station will also be used
in Zone 2.
To use the remote controller to control the AV receiver
from Zone 2, you’ll need one of the following commer-
cially available multiroom remote control kits:
• Multiroom Kits are made by Niles and Xantech.
These kits can also be used when the AV receiver is not
in line of sight of the remote controller, for example,
when it’s installed inside a cabinet.
Using a Multiroom Kit with Zone 2
In the following diagram, an IR receiver picks up the
infrared signals from the remote controller in Zone 2 and
feeds them to the AV receiver in the main room via the
connecting block.
Connect the miniplug cable from the connecting block to
the AV receiver’s IR IN jack as shown below.
Using a Multiroom Kit with a Cabinet
