This unit allows you to configure a multi-zone audio system. The multi-zone configuration feature enables you to set this
unit to reproduce separate input sources in the main zone, second zone (Zone 2), third zone (Zone 3) and fourth zone
(Zone 4). You can control this unit from the second, third or fourth zone using the supplied remote control.
You need the following additional equipment to use the multi-zone functions of this unit:
• An infrared signal receiver in the second zone, third zone and/or fourth zone.

infrared signal receiver in the second zone, third zone and/or fourth zone to a CD player or a DVD player, etc. in the
main zone.
• An amplifier and speakers in the second zone, third zone and/or fourth zone.
