How do you turn off/disable zones on the RX-V2400?

Hi,
I've got an RX-V2400 amp and was playing around with the zones - I
wanted to run a small pair of speakers into the kitchen and the
multi-zones looked ideal for this purpose. What I only found out after
running the cable up in my ceiling and hooking it all up was that you
can't route a digital source to zone 2 or zone 3. Kind of limited, hey?
Having run the cable and mounted a pair of speakers (maybe I should
have RTFM first =) I then hooked up the kitchen speakers to the
Speakers B output. At least with this I can listen to a digital source
in both rooms and, as I've assigned Speakers B to Zone B, if I turn off
Speakers A, the amp is intelligent enough to turn off the sub as well.

Anyway, my question after all that is: How can I turn off the zone
functionality now that I'm not going to use it? If I turn on the amp
from the power button on the front faceplate, it turns on zone 2 and 3.
If I then turn it off from the remote, it only turns off zone 1, unless
I then explicitly turn off zone 2 and 3.
Also, when I power it on via the remote, it says MAIN Power On.

All I want to be able to do is put it back to how it was, before it
"knew" about zones - does anyone have any idea how?

Cheers,
Kai

I've looked over the owners manual. Don't see anything explicit about this,
but considering the manual is 94 pages, I could have missed something. There
is a hidden "servicer's menu" which would have a re-initialization function,
hidden somewhat down into it's menus. I always hesitate to give this stuff
out - no good can usually come of it, and it's of absolutely no use to
average or even "tweaky" users.

You can mail me directly if you need the procedure.

and add "sbc" and "net" at the appropriate places.
