For accurate learning

Do not move the remote units during the learning procedure.

Be sure to press and hold the button of the other remote control until you hear the confirmation beep.

Use fresh batteries in both remote control units.

Avoid learning in places under direct sunlight or strong fluorescent light.

The remote control signal direction may differ depending on the remote control. If learning does not work, try changing the position of the remote control.

When you program a remote control unit with an interactive signal exchange system (supplied with some Sony receivers and amplifiers) to the Remote Commander, the response signal of the component may interfere with the learning of the Remote Commander. In such a case, move to another room, etc., where the signals will not interfere.

IMPORTANT

Be sure to place the Remote Commander out of the reach of small children or pets. Also, set the Hold function to lock the all the buttons on the Remote Commander (page 33) when it is not used. Devices such as air conditioners, heaters, electric appliances, and electric shutters or curtains receiving an infrared signal can be dangerous if misused.
