Programming the Remote Control

If you have video equipment other than Sony brand (or if you have a Sony DVD/VCR combination unit) that you want to control with the TV’s remote control, use the following procedure to program the remote control.

The equipment must have infrared (IR) remote capability in order to be used

 

 

with the remote control.

 

1

Turn to the list of “Manufacturer’s Codes” on page 38, and find

 

 

the three-digit code number for the manufacturer of your

 

 

equipment. (If more than one code number is listed, use the

 

 

number listed first.)

 

2

Press CODE SET.

 

3

Press the VCR/DVD FUNCTION or SAT/CABLE FUNCTION button.

 

4

Using the 0-9buttons, enter the three-digit manufacturer’s code

 

 

number.

 

5

Press the ENTER button.

 

 

 

 

 

You must do step 5 within 10 seconds of step 4, or you must redo

 

 

steps 2 through 5.

 

6

 

 

To check if the code number works, aim the TV’s remote control

 

 

at the equipment and press the POWER button that corresponds

 

 

with that equipment. If it responds, you are done. If not, try using

 

 

another code listed for that manufacturer.

 

 

 

Notes

If more than one code number is listed, try entering them one by

 

 

one until you come to the correct code for your equipment.

If you enter a new code number, the code number you previously entered at that setting is erased.

In some cases, you may not be able to operate your equipment with the supplied remote control. In such cases, use the equipment’s own remote control.

Whenever you remove the batteries to replace them, the code numbers may revert to the factory setting and must be reprogrammed.
