The multi-zone function allows you to play back different input sources in the room
where the unit is installed (main zone) and in another room (Zone2).
For example, while you are watching TV in the living room (main zone), another person
can listen to radio in the study room (Zone2).
• Analog audio sources (including FM/AM or DAB/FM radio), Bluetooth, USB and network sources can be
output to Zone2. To listen to the playback of an external device in Zone2, you need to connect the device to
the AUDIO jacks (AV 3 or AUDIO 2–3 jacks) of the unit.
• The party mode (p.77) allows you to play back the same audio output in main zone as Zone2, whatever the
input audio signal type.
Preparing Zone2
Connect the device that will be used in Zone2 to the unit.
Connect the speakers placed in Zone2 to the unit with speaker cables.
To utilize the EXTRA SP terminals for Zone2 speakers, set “Power Amp Assign” (p.88) in
the “Setup” menu to “Zone2” after connecting the power cable to an AC wall outlet.

Caution
• Remove the unit’s power cable from the AC wall outlet before connecting speakers or an external
amplifier.
• Ensure that the core wires of the speaker cable do not touch one another or come into contact with the
unit’s metal parts. Doing so may damage the unit or the speakers. If the speaker cables short circuit,
“Check SP Wires” will appear on the front display when the unit is turned on.
