RR-949 Remote Control
The RX-975 includes a handheld remote
control that does far more than operate the
RX-975. The RR-949 is a full-function program-
mable remote control that can operate up
to 8 audio/video components.
A separate manual, included with the remote,
gives detailed information on programming
and using the RR-949 to replace all of the
remote controls in your system. This section
is intended to provide only that information
which pertains to the use of the RR-949 to
operate the RX-975.
NOTE : Many functions duplicate the RX-975
front panel controls and are listed here only
for your reference. Please refer to the pre-
vious Front Panel Controls section of this
manual if you need additional information.
AUDIO Button
To operate the RX-975 with the remote, make
sure that the AUDIO mode is active by press-
ing the AUD button on the remote before you
start. If it is active, pressing command keys
on the RR-949 will cause the AUDIO button
to flash red. Once the AUDIO mode is ac-
tive, it will stay active unless you press one
of the other DEVICE buttons to control a dif-
ferent component.
Programming the RR-949
The RR-949 is preprogrammed from the
factory to operate the RX-975. Should the
AUDIO command set on your RR-949 not
operate the RX-975, it’s possible that the
programming has been inadvertently
changed. To program the remote to
operate the RX-975, set the AUDIO
Code = 001:
1. Press the AUDIO button at the top of the
remote while simultaneously pressing the
MUTE button and hold both for at least
one second. The AUDIO button will light
in red for 20 seconds, indicating that you
have entered the program mode. The next
step must be done within this 20 second
period, or the RR-949 will revert to its
standard operating mode.
2. Use the NUMERIC buttons to enter the
3-digit code (001) for the RX-975 – press
0, then 0, then 1. The AUDIO button will
flash each time you enter a digit.
3. Store the code number by pressing the
corresponding AUDIO button again. The
button will blink twice to confirm the stor-
age of the code in memory.
POWER Button

switch on the front panel. Press to activate
the RX-975. Press again to deactivate. The
main POWER button on the front panel must
be in the ON position for the remote standby
function to operate.

tion of the front panel volume control. Press
VOLUME UP to increase the volume and press
VOLUME DOWN to decrease the volume.
SHIFT Button
Used to access secondary functions on sev-
eral RR-949 buttons. Press the SHIFT button
and then the desired button.
MUTE Button
Push this button once to turn the sound off.
A mute indication will appear in the front
panel display. Press the MUTE button again
to restore previous volume levels.
PRESET AUTO SCAN Button
[SHIFT] MUTE
This shift function activates a PRESET SCAN-
NING feature. Press the SHIFT button and
then the MUTE button to scan through all
memorized station presets, playing each for
five seconds before moving to the next. To
stop the station scanning on the desired sta-
tion preset, press the MUTE button again.
TV/BAND Button

TUNE/PRESET Button
[SHIFT] TV/BAND
The TUNE/PRESET button toggles between

ING buttons advance to the next station fre-
quency) and PRESET TUNING mode (the CH

rized station preset). To change modes, press
the SHIFT button and then the TV/BAND but-
ton. A PRESET indicator in the front panel
DISPLAY will light when the PRESET mode
is active.
CH TUNING Buttons

which duplicates the functions of the front
panel TUNING button.
In the normal FREQUENCY TUNING
mode, press a CH button and release to
manually jump to the next station frequency,
regardless of whether or not a station is
broadcasting on that frequency. For auto scan
tuning, press and hold the CH button for ap-
proximately one second. An AUTO indica-
tor will appear in the front panel display and
the tuner will begin automatically scanning
up or down through the frequencies until the
next available station is detected. If this is
not the desired station, repeat the automatic
tuning procedure to find the next station.
Weak stations will be skipped during auto
tuning.
In the PRESET TUNING mode, press a
CH button and release to jump to the next
memorized station preset. Switch between
FREQUENCY and PRESET tuning modes by
pressing the SHIFT button and then the
BAND/TV button on the remote control. A
