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.

• 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.
• Volume level cannot be adjusted with this receiver. Use the separate amplifier connected to the

volume.
