Indicates the functions YOU CAN ALSO USE when
the receiver is ready for Zone 2 operations.

Receiving Radio Broadcasts

You can browse through all the stations or use the preset function to go immediately to a particular station.

Tuning in to Stations Manually

1. Press FM or AM to select the band.

The last received station of the selected band is tuned in.

2. Tuning in to the frequency.

On the front panel:

Pressing FM/AM TUNING 

5

 increases the frequency.

Pressing FM/AM TUNING 

 decreases the frequency.

On the remote control:

Pressing TUNING UP increases the frequency.
Pressing TUNING DOWN decreases the frequency.

Notes:

• When a station of sufficient signal strength is tuned in, the TUNED

indicator lights up on the unit’s display.

• When an FM stereo program is received, the STEREO indicator

also lights up on the unit’s display.

• When you hold the button (and release it) in step 

2

, the frequency

keeps changing until a station is tuned in.

• You can only select the same station of the same band (FM or AM)

for both Zone 1 and Zone 2 operations. If you change the station for
Zone 2, it also changes for Zone 1 (and vice versa: indications on the
unit’s display also change). This also means that if you change the
station for Zone 2 while recording a broadcasting program in Zone 1,
recording in Zone 1 will be interrupted.

IMPORTANT:

Check the following before or while using the buttons and controls.

For Zone 1 operations:

The ZONE 1 indicator lights up on the unit’s display.

For Zone 2 operations:

The ZONE 2 indicator lights up on the unit’s display.

When using the unit:

– For Zone 1 operations: “ZONE2” is not shown in the unit’s main

display.

– For Zone 2 operations: “ZONE2” is shown in the unit’s main

display.

When using the remote control:

When operating the receiver using the remote control, the
unit’s display always shows the Zone 1 source information
though you are operating it for the Zone 2 source.

– Set the ZONE 1/ZONE 2 selector to 

ZONE 1

 or 

ZONE 2 

correctly.

– Check the indication shown on the remote’s display when you

press a button—this indicates the remote control operation mode
together with multi-room operation mode (either for ZONE 1 or
ZONE 2) for about two hours.

When operating for Zone 1
