Notes:

The remote controller may not work reliably if the AV receiver is subjected to bright light, such as direct sunlight or inverter-type fluorescent lights. Keep this in mind when installing.

If another remote controller of the same type is used in the same room, or the AV receiver is installed close to equipment that uses infrared rays, the remote controller may not work reliably.

Don’t put anything on top of the remote controller, such as a book or magazine, because a button may be pressed continuously, thereby draining the batteries.

The remote controller may not work reliably if the AV receiver is installed in a rack behind colored glass doors. Keep this in mind when installing.

The remote controller will not work if there’s an obstacle between it and the AV receiver’s remote control sensor.

When the remote control codes have been registered and you want to operate another component (page 84), or when you want to operate an Onkyo component without uconnection, point the remote controller at the other component to use it.

When you want to operate an Onkyo component with

uconnection or an -compatible compo- nent connected via HDMI (page 86), point the remote controller at the AV receiver’s remote control sensor.
