Notes

Do not mix new batteries with old batteries or different kinds of batteries.

To avoid corrosion, remove the batteries if the remote controller is not to be used for a long time.

Remove dead batteries immediately to avoid damage from corrosion. If the remote controller does not operate smoothly, replace both batteries at the same time.

The life of the supplied batteries is about six months but this varies depending on usage.

Pointing the remote controller in the right direction

Point the remote controller toward the remote control sensor.

The SEND/Remote control sensor LEARN indicator

Notes

Place the unit away from strong light such as direct sunlight or inverted fluorescent light which can prevent proper operation of the remote controller.

Using another remote controller of the same type in the same room or using the unit near equipment which uses infrared rays may cause operational interference.

Do not put any object (such as a book) on the remote controller. The buttons of the remote controller may be pressed by mistake and drain the batteries.

Make sure the audio rack doors do not have colored glass. Placing the unit behind such doors may prevent proper remote controller operation.

If there is any obstacle between the remote controller and the remote control sensor, the remote controller will not operate.

Switching the remote controller function modes

Some buttons on the remote controller have two or more functions. To set the functionality of these buttons, press one of the six MODE (DVD, CDR, TAPE/ MD/HD, AUDIO, VCR, TV) buttons in advance.

The function mode remains the same until another MODE button is pressed.

(Details about the functions and the related function modes are explained in each section.)

MODE buttons

Press MODE DVD first before operating the built-in DVD player.

Press MODE AUDIO first before operating the speaker setting and sound related operations.

Press MODE CDR first before operating the z-connected Onkyo CD recorder (see pages 21, 23 and 41)

Press MODE TAPE/MD/HD first before operating the z-connected Onkyo MD recorder, cassette tape deck or hard disk recorder (see pages 21, 23 and 41).

Press MODE VCR or MODE TV first before operating your VCR or TV.

To operate the TV with the supplied remote controller, you need to let the remote controller learn the TV remote control signals (see pages 78 and 79).
