Press CONTROL.
• When the receiver is on,
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 zone you have selected.
For example, ZONE 2 CD-R sends the source connected
to the CD-R inputs to the sub room (ZONE 2).
• If you select FM/AM, you can use the tuner controls
to select a preset station (see Saving station presets
on page 35 if you're unsure how to do this).
• You can't use the iPod USB functions simultaneously
with using the MULTI-ZONE feature.
4
Use the MASTER VOLUME dial to adjust the
volume.
This is only possible if you selected the VARIABLE
volume control in ZONE Audio Setup on page 67.
5
When you're finished, press CONTROL again to
return to the main zone controls.
You can also press the MULTI-ZONE ON/OFF button on
the front panel to switch off all output to the sub zone.

Note
1 If the receiver is in standby, the display is dimmed, and ZONE 2 continues to show in the display.
2 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.
3 The volume levels of the main and sub zones are independent.
4 • 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 a while, turn off the power in both the sub and main rooms so that this receiver is in standby.
5 • Remote operation may not be possible if direct light from a strong fluorescent lamp is shining on the IR receiver remote sensor window.
• Note that other manufacturers may not use the IR terminology. Refer to the manual that came with your component to check for IR compatibility.
• If using two remote controls (at the same time), the IR receiver's remote sensor takes priority over the remote sensor on the front panel.
