Turning On & Basic Operations

The Whole House Mode is useful when you want to add
extra background music to your home party; this allows
you to enjoy the same stereo music as the main room in
separate rooms (Zone 2/3/4).
The Whole House Mode selects the same input source for
Multi Zone as the main room’s.
