09 Using other functions • When using ZONE 2 and ZONE 3, it is not possible to use the multi-zone function to play different inputs from among Home Media Gallery, iPod/USB, XM and SIRIUS Radio. (It is possible to play when using the main zone and ZONE 2 or the main zone and ZONE 3.) 4 Use the MASTER VOLUME dial to adjust the volume for the zone you have selected. This is only possible if you selected the Variable volume control in ZONE Audio Setup on page 129.1 5 When you're finished, press MULTI-ZONE CONTROL again to return to the main zone controls. You can also press MULTI-ZONE ON/OFF on the front panel to switch off all output to the sub zone(s).2 MULTI-ZONE remote controls Set the MULTI-ZONE operation switch to ZONE 2 or ZONE 3 to operate the corresponding zone.

VOL +/- (SC-27) MUTE Mutes the sound or restores the sound if it has been muted (adjusting the volume also restores the sound). Making an audio or a video recording You can make an audio or a video recording from the built-in tuner, or from an audio or video source connected to the receiver (such as a CD player or TV).3 Keep in mind you can't make a digital recording from an analog source or vice-versa, so make sure the components you are recording to/from are hooked up in the same way (see Connecting your equipment on page 20 for more on connections). Since the video converter is not available when making recordings (from the video OUT jacks) make sure to use the same type of video cable for connecting your recorder as you used to connect your video source (the one you want to record) to this receiver. For example, you must connect your recorder using Component video if your source has also been connected using Component video. For more information about video connections, see Connecting an HDD/DVD recorder, VCR and other video sources on page 33.
