Using the REMOTE MODE buttons

You can use this remote

controller’s Zone 2 capability to control a Zone 2 device. To control a Zone 2 device, start by

pressing the REMOTE MODE [ZONE 2] button. After you’ve finished operating the Zone 2 device, and would like to operate this receiver once again, press the REMOTE MODE [MAIN] button.

If the expected operation does not occur even though the remote controller is pointed toward the receiver, it may be that Zone 2 is selected. Please press the REMOTE MODE [MAIN] button. Once you’ve pressed the REMOTE MODE [MAIN] button, there’s no need to press this button again before each operation; you can simply use the remote controller to operate the receiver as usual. Similarly, once you’ve pressed the REMOTE MODE [ZONE 2] button, you can continue operating the Zone 2 device without having to press this button again before each operation.
