Connect a TV monitor to the MULTI-ZONE & 

SOURCE MONITOR OUT jacks on the rear of this 
receiver.

surround back speaker terminals as shown below.

Secondary MULTI-ZONE setup (

ZONE 3

)

Connect a separate amplifier to the OUT1 ZONE3 

digital output on the rear of this receiver.

The amplifier must have an optical digital input to make 
this connection. This will allow you to hear the digital 

output of a component in a second sub zone.

1

Using the MULTI-ZONE controls

The following steps use the front panel controls to adjust 

the sub zone volume and select sources.

2

 See 

MULTI-

ZONE remote controls

 below.

1

Press the MULTI-ZONE & SOURCE ON/OFF button 

on the front panel.

Each press selects a MULTI-ZONE option:

ZONE 2 ON

 – Selects your primary (

ZONE 2

) sub 

zone

ZONE 2&3 ON

 – Select both sub zones

ZONE 3 ON

 – Selects your secondary (

ZONE 3

) sub 

zone

MULTI ZONE OFF

 – Switches the MULTI-ZONE 

feature off

The 

MULTI-ZONE

 indicator lights when the MULTI-ZONE 

control has been switched ON.

2

Press CONTROL to select the sub zone(s) you want.

3

If you selected 

ZONE 2&3 ON

 above, you can toggle 

between 

ZONE 2

 and 

ZONE 3

.

• When the receiver is on,

4

 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.

3

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 35 if you’re unsure how to do this).

5

Note

1 Only one sub zone is possible if you connect the 

OUT1 ZONE3

 digital output to your second sub zone.
