Programming the Remote Control

z

If more than one code number is listed, try entering them one by one until you come to the correct code for your component.

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 component with the supplied remote control. In such cases, use the component’s own remote control unit.

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

The remote control is preset to operate Sony-brand video equipment.
