Operating on the remote controller
Tip
• To unmute, press ZONE followed by MUTING again. Zones can
also be unmuted by adjusting the volume.
Note
• ZONE 2 LINE OUT and FRONT WIDE/ZONE 2 L/R output
2ch PCM and analog input sources. To listen to the PCM source,
you need to make an HDMI connection (
). If no
sound is heard when an input source is selected, check if the
source is connected to an analog input and HDMI input.
• Only analog input sources are output by the ZONE 3 LINE OUT
and FRONT HIGH/ZONE 3 L/R terminals. Digital input
sources are not output. If no sound is heard when an input source
is selected, verify that the source is connected to an analog input.
• (North American models) You can select different radio
stations for the main room and Zone 2 by connecting the supplied
antennas respectively (
• (North American models) When the main room and Zone 2
share the same input source, if the input selector of the main room
is TUNER, you cannot select different radio stations for the main
room and Zone 2 respectively.
• (European models) You cannot select different AM or FM radio
stations for your main room and Zone 2/3. The same AM/FM
radio station will be heard in each room. Namely, if you have
selected an FM station for the main room, that station will also be
output in Zone 2/3.
• You cannot select different radio stations for Zone 2 and Zone 3
respectively.
• If Zone 2 and the main room share the same input source, only an
analog input signal is output.
• If an HDMI component selected in Zone 2 outputs the sound
other than PCM, the sound is not output from FRONT
WIDE/ZONE 2 and ZONE 2 LINE OUT.
• Both audio and video outputs from an HDMI component may
interrupt when the main room and Zone 2 are set to share the
same source or not.
• When you have selected NET or USB as input selector, the last
selector selected will be set for Main room and Zone 2/3.
• When Zone 2/3 is activated and its input selector is selected, the
power consumption of standby mode slightly increases.
• While Zone 2/3 is on,
functions will not work.
• The component connected to HDMI input other than HDMI IN
1/2/3/AUX INPUT is selected as an input source for Zone 2, the
linked operations of
may not work properly. In this
case, set the linked operations to Off on the source component.
• When setting the AV receiver to standby mode while Zone 2/3 is
active, the Z2 or Z3 indicator is dimly lit.
• Activating Zones in the main room when the listening mode is set
to Pure Audio will automatically switch it to Direct.
• “GAME2” cannot be selected as input sources for Zone 3.
• When “GAME2” is the input source of Main room and Zone 3 is
set to share the same source, no sound will be output from Zone 3.
• Even if you repeatedly press the remote controller’s ZONE to
select zones, the last zone selection will be retained once you
have switched to other components by pressing other REMOTE
MODE after pressing ZONE.
To control the AV receiver with the remote controller
while you’re in Zone, you’ll need a commercially available
multiroom remote control kit for each zone.
• Multiroom kits are made by Niles and Xantech.
These kits can also be used when there isn’t a clear line of
sight to the AV receiver’s remote sensor, such as when it’s
installed inside a cabinet.
Using a Multiroom Kit with Zone
In this setup, the IR receiver in Zone picks up the infrared
signals from the remote controller and feeds them through
to the AV receiver in the main room via the connecting
block.
The miniplug cable from the connecting block should be
connected to the AV receiver’s IR IN jack, as shown
below.
