to 2 channels).

Using the MULTI-ZONE controls

The following steps use the front panel controls
to adjust the sub zone volume and select
sources. See MULTI-ZONE remote controls on
page 73.

Press MULTI-ZONE ON/OFF on the front

panel.
Each press selects a MULTI-ZONE option:

feature on

MULTI ZONE OFF – Switches the MULTI-
ZONE feature off

The

MULTI-ZONE indicator lights when the

MULTI-ZONE control has been switched ON.

2

Press MULTI-ZONE CONTROL on the

front panel.

• When the receiver is on,

2

make sure that

any operations for the sub zone are done
while

ZONE 2 shows 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 sub zone.
For example,

ZONE 2 CD-R sends the source

connected to the

CD-R inputs to the sub room

(

ZONE 2).

• If you select

TUNER, you can use the tuner

controls to select a preset station (see
Saving station presets on page 48 if you’re
unsure how to do this).

When Speaker System is set to ZONE 2,

use the MASTER VOLUME dial to adjust the
volume for the sub zone.

Note

1 • The subwoofer output depends on the settings you made in Manual speaker setup on page 99. However, if

SP

B is

selected above, no sound is heard from the subwoofer (the LFE channel is not downmixed).
• All speaker systems (except

Speaker B connections) are switched off when headphones are connected.

2 If the receiver is in standby, the display is dimmed, and

ZONE 2 DVD for example shows in the display.

3 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.

4 The volume levels of the main and sub zone are independent.
