Notes:

If the Sleep function has been set, any Zone 2 compo- nent will turn off along with the DTR-8.4 when the specified sleep time expires. To use the Sleep function with Zone 2 only, set the Sleep function and then set the DTR-8.4 to Standby.

Only analog input sources are output by the PRE OUT SURR BACK/ZONE 2 outputs and the SURR BACK/ ZONE 2 SPEAKERS terminals. Digital input sources are not output. If no sound is heard when an input source is selected, check if it’s connected to analog inputs.

Since the Zone 2 function and the REC OUT outputs use the same circuitry, if the [Rec Out] button is pressed, Zone 2 will be turned off.

When the SURR BACK/ZONE 2 outputs (SPEAK- ERS/PRE OUT) are set to Zone 2 (page 86), listening modes that need surround back speakers (i.e., Dolby Digital EX, DTS-ES, and THX Surround EX) are not available.

While Zone 2 is active, functions will not work.

While Zone 2 is active, the Pure Audio listening mode cannot be selected for the main room.

You can’t select different radio bands for Zone 2 and the main room. For example, if you select FM for the main room, then FM will also be selected for Zone 2.
