Secondary MULTI-ZONE setup (ZONE 3)
1
Connect a separate amplifier to the AUDIO ZONE3
OUT jacks and a TV monitor to the VIDEO ZONE3 OUT
jacks, both on the rear of this amplifier.
2
Connect a separate amplifier to the ZONE3/
SOURCE OUT digital output on the rear of this
amplifier.
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.
Using the MULTI-ZONE controls
The following steps use the front panel controls to adjust
the sub zone volume and select sources.
1
See
MULTI-
ZONE remote controls on page 67.
1
Press ZONE2 or ZONE3 to select the desired zone
(room).
The zone turns on and off each time the corresponding
button is pressed. It is possible to turn both on.
2
Press CTRL to select the sub zone(s) you want.
2
If you selected
ZONE 2 ON and ZONE 3 ON above, you
can toggle among
ZONE 2, ZONE 3 and ZONE 2&3.
• When the amplifier is on,
3
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.
4
Use the MASTER VOLUME dial to adjust the
volume.
This is only possible if you selected the
VARIABLE
volume control in
ZONE Audio Setup on page 97.

5
When you’re finished, press CTRL again to return to
the main zone controls.
You can also press the
ZONE 2 or ZONE 3 button on the
front panel to switch off all output to the sub zone(s).

ZONE and your selected sub zone(s) continue to show in the display.
4 The volume levels of the main and sub zones are independent.
5 • You won’t be able to switch the main zone off completely unless you’ve switched off the MULTI-ZONE control first.
• If you don’t plan to use the MULTI-ZONE feature for awhile, turn off the power in both the sub and main rooms so that this amplifier is in standby.
