Using the Sleep Timer

Using the Sleep Timer, you can fall asleep while listening to music. When the shut-off time comes, the receiver turns off automatically.

Sleep Timer works only for the Zone 1 source.

Press SLEEP repeatedly.

The SLEEP indicator lights up on the unit’s display, and the shut-off time changes in 10-minute intervals:

10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90

OFF (Canceled)

When the shut-off time comes

The receiver turns off automatically.

If the Zone 2 source is still playing (the ZONE 2 indicator is lit) when the shut-off time comes, the receiver will not turn off, but only the Zone 1 source will shut off.

To check or change the time remaining until the shut-off time

Press SLEEP once.

The remaining time until the shut-off time appears in minutes.

To change the shut-off time, press SLEEP repeatedly.

To cancel the Sleep Timer

Press SLEEP repeatedly until “SLEEP OFF” appears on the unit’s display. The SLEEP indicator goes off.

Turning off the power also cancels the Sleep Timer.

Recording a source

For analog-to-analog recording

You can record any analog playback source onto the recording components connected to the audio output jacks on the rear panel at the same time.

For digital-to-digital recording

You can record the currently selected digital input source through the receiver to a digital recording device connected to the DIGITAL OUT terminal.

Notes:

Analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog recordings are not possible.

The output volume level, Midnight Mode (see page 23), Bass Boost (see page 24), Equalization patterns (see page 40), Surround and DSP modes (see pages 42 to 49) cannot affect the recording.

IMPORTANT:

While recording, do not turn off the receiver or Zone 1 source; otherwise, recording will stop.

If the same source is selected both for Zone 1 and Zone 2, operating the Zone 2 source will affect the recording.

Basic adjustment auto memory

This receiver memorizes sound settings for each Zone 1 source—

when you turn off the power,

when you change the source,

when you press ZONE 1 ON/OFF or ZONE 2 CONTROL, and

when you change the source name (see page 24).

When you change the source, the memorized settings for the newly selected source are automatically recalled.

The following can be stored for each source:

Analog/digital input mode (see page 22)

Midnight Mode (see page 23)

Input attenuator mode (see page 23)

Analog Direct (see page 23)

CC Converter (see page 23)

Bass Boost setting (see page 24)

Equalization pattern (see page 40)

Speaker output levels (see page 40)

Surround and DSP mode selection (see pages 44 to 49)

Notes:

The memorized settings are not applied when a source is selected for Zone 2.

If you want to memorize the volume level with the above settings, set One Touch Operation to “ON” (see page 38).
