You need the following additional equipment to use the multi-room functions of this unit:
• An infrared signal receiver in Zone 2, Zone 3, and/or Zone 4.

to the main room (to a CD player or DVD player, for example).
• An amplifier and speakers for Zone 2, Zone 3, and/or Zone 4.

Important safety notice
The speaker terminals of this Receiver should not be connected to a Passive Loudspeaker Selector Box or more than one loudspeaker per
channel.
Connection to a Passive Loudspeaker Selector Box or multiple speakers per channel could create an abnormally low impedance load
resulting in amplifier damage. See this owner's manual for correct usage.
Compliance with minimum speaker impedance information for all channels must be maintained at all times. This information is found on
the back panel of your Receiver.
To make the system of the example, connect the speakers in the
