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 primary (ZONE 2) sub room.
• If you select TUNER, you can use the TUNER controls
to select a preset station (see Saving station presets
on page 41 if you're unsure how to do this).
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 92.
5
When you're finished, press CONTROL again to
return to the main zone controls.
You can also press MULTI-ZONE & SOURCE ON/OFF on
the front panel to switch off all output to the sub zone(s).

Note
1 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.
2 The volume levels of the main and sub zones are independent.
3 • 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.
4 • 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.

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
1
system instead of the remote sensor on the front panel of
4
this receiver.
1
Connect the IR receiver sensor to the IR IN 1 jack on
the rear of this receiver.
2
If you also plan to use a separate IR receiver in the sub
room, connect this to the IR IN 2 jack.

2
Connect the IR IN jack of another component to the
IR OUT jack on the rear of this receiver to link it to the
IR receiver.
Please see the manual supplied with your IR receiver for
the type of cable necessary for the connection.
• If you want to link a Pioneer component to the IR
receiver, see Operating other Pioneer components
with this unit's sensor on page 105 to connect to the
CONTROL jacks instead of the IR OUT jack.
