Remote control

Symptom	Remedy
Cannot be remote controlled.	Set the remote control unit’s remote control mode so that it matches the set-
	ting on the main unit (see Operating multiple receivers on page 54 ).
	Check whether the receiver’s remote control mode is properly set (see Remote
	Control Mode Setup on page 71 ).
	Try replacing the batteries in the remote control (see Loading the batteries on
	page 6 ).
	Be sure to operate within 7 m (23 ft.) and a 30º angle of the remote sensor on
	the front panel (see Operating range of remote control unit on page 7 ).
	Check that there are no obstacles between the receiver and the remote con-
	trol.
	Make sure that there is no fluorescent or other strong light shining on to the
	remote sensor.
	Check the connections of the CONTROL IN jacks (see Operating other Pioneer
	components with this unit’s sensor on page 24 ).

	When commands from the remote control units of other devices are regis-
	tered using the learning function, in some cases they may not be learned
	properly. In this case, register the commands again using the learning func-
	tion (see page 55). If they still do not work, they may be in a special format that
	cannot be registered on this receiver’s remote control. Operate the device
	using another remote control.
