Using the Macro Feature
The Macro feature makes it possible to perform a series of operations by pressing just one button. For example, when
you want to play a CD, normally you would turn on the components, select the CD input, and press the play button to
start playback. The Macro feature lets you perform all those operations by simply pressing the CD macro button. The
macro buttons (the input selector buttons, Å and ı buttons, SYSTEM POWER and STANDBY) are factory set with
macro programs. You can also program your own macros (see page 46).

*1 In order to turn on some components (including YAMAHA components) connected to this unit, connect those
components to the AC OUTLET(S) on the rear panel. (Power control may not be synchronized with this unit
depending on the component. For details, please refer to the operation instruction for the connected component.)
*2 If the macro you select includes power control functions, the component may be turned off if it is already on when
you press the macro button. For example, if your TV is on and you press the SYSTEM POWER macro button, the
TV is turned off.
*3 By factory setting, playback can be started with any YAMAHA remote control-compatible MD recorders, CD
players, CD recorders, DVD players, and LD players. When using macros to operate other components, it is either
necessary to program the PLAY button on the control area of that component (see pages 43 and 44) or to set up a
manufacturer code (see page 42).
*4 When TUNER is selected as the input source, YAMAHA tuners receive the last station when this unit is set in the
standby mode.
