If you have video equipment other than Sony video equipment that you want to control with the TV’s remote control, use the following procedures to program the remote control.

Note

The equipment must have infrared (IR) remote capability in order to be used with this remote control.

From the “Manufacturer’s codes” listed on page 35, select the three-digit code number for the manufacturer’s code of your equipment. If more than one code number is listed, try entering them one by one until you come to the correct code for your equipment. Use the code number to complete the following procedure.

1Press CODE SET.

2Press the function button you want to program.

To program a cable box or a satellite receiver Press SAT/CABLE (FUNCTION).

To program video equipment Press VCR/DVD (FUNCTION).

3Enter the three-digit manufacturer’s code number using the 0-9 buttons.

4Press ENT (enter).

5To check if the code number works, aim the TV’s remote control at the equipment and press VCR/DVD and/or SAT/CABLE (POWER) that corresponds with that equipment. If it responds, the programming is completed. If not, try using the other codes listed for that manufacturer.

Tips

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

•In some rare cases, you may not be able to operate your equipment with the Sony remote control. In this case, use the equipment’s own remote control unit.
