Muting Zone 2 ■ Operating on the remote controller 1 Press ZONE2 followed by MUTING. Tip • To unmute, press ZONE2 followed by MUTING again. Note • Only analog input sources are output from the ZONE 2 LINE OUT L/R jacks and FRONT WIDE/ZONE 2 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. • While Zone 2 is on, V functions will not work. • You cannot select different AM or FM radio stations for your main room and Zone 2. 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. • When you have selected NET or USB as the input selector, the last selector selected will be set for both Main room and Zone 2. • Zone 2 can also be unmuted by adjusting the volume. • When Zone 2 is activated and its input selector is selected, the power consumption of standby mode slightly increases. • When setting the AV receiver to standby mode while Zone 2 is active, the Z2 indicator is dimly lit. • Activating Zone 2 in the main room when the listening mode is set to Pure Audio will automatically switch it to Direct. • AUX cannot be selected as the input selector for Zone 2. • When AUX is the input source of Main room and Zone 2 is set to share the same source, no sound will be output from Zone 2. Using the Remote Controller in Zone 2 and Multiroom Control Kits To control the AV receiver with the remote controller while you're in Zone 2, 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.
