Using the MULTI-ZONE controls
The following steps use the front panel controls to adjust the sub zone volume and select sources. See
.
Important
!
The settings must be changed at
ZONE Setup
in order to use the multi-zone function (
1 Press the button on the front panel for the zone you want to operate (ZONE 2 ON/OFF,
ZONE 3 ON/OFF or HDZONE ON/OFF).
The zone switches between on and off each time the button is pressed.
The
MULTI-ZONE
indicator lights when the MULTI-ZONE control has been switched ON.
2 Press MULTI-ZONE CONTROL on the front panel to select the sub zone(s) you want.
!
When the receiver is on, make sure that any operations for the sub zone are done while ZONE and your
selected sub zone(s) show in the display. If this is not showing, the front panel controls affect the main zone
only.
If the receiver is in standby, the display is dimmed, and ZONE and your selected sub zone(s) continue to show
in the display.
3 Use the INPUT SELECTOR dial to select the source for the sub zone.
For example,
ZONE 2 SAT/CBL
sends the source connected to the
SAT/CBL
inputs to the sub room (
ZONE 2
).
!
If you select
TUNER
, you can use the tuner controls to select a preset station (see
on
if you’re unsure how to do this). 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 Use the MASTER VOLUME dial to adjust the volume for the sub zone.
When
Speaker System
is set to anything other than
5.2 +ZONE 2+ZONE 3
,
5.2 +ZONE 2+HDZONE
or
Multi-ZONE Music
, the volume output from the receiver’s
AUDIO ZONE 2 OUT
terminals can be fixed to –40 dB
or 0 dB and the volume can be adjusted from the connected amplifier. If you want to adjust the volume from the
connected amplifier, see
5 When you’re finished, press MULTI-ZONE CONTROL again to return to the main zone
controls.
You can also press
MULTI-ZONE ON/OFF
on the front panel to switch off all output to the sub zone.
!
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.
Note
When HDZONE is turned on, the video converter function is disabled. For that reason, video connected with the
video cable or component cable is not output from the HDMI terminal. To enable the video converter function,
turn off HDZONE.
