installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

•Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

•Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

•Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

•Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. You are cautioned that any changes or modifications not expressly approved in this manual could void your authority to operate this equipment.

When to replace the batteries

Under normal conditions, batteries will last up to 6 months. If the Commander does not operate properly, the batteries might be worn out. Replace the batteries with new ones.

Notes

•Replace both batteries with new ones.

•Do not take more than 3 minutes to replace the batteries; otherwise, your setting of the code numbers will be erased.

You can write down the code number on the label inside the battery compartment lid.

If the Commander Doesn’t Seem to Be Working...

•First, try repeating these setup procedures using the other codes listed for your component (see the supplied “Component Code Numbers”).

•If – after trying all the codes listed for your component – you still cannot get the Commander to work properly, try the search method described in “Searching for the Correct Code.”

Setting Up the Remote Commander

About Presetting the Commander

The Commander is preset at the factory to operate Sony brand components.

If you’re using the Commander with a Sony component, you won’t need to preset the Commander before you start using it.

To set up the Commander to use with other (non-Sony) manufacturers’ components, or to use with a component that is not preset at the factory, you’ll need to follow the instructions in this manual to preset the Commander with the correct code number for your components. (See the supplied “Component Code Numbers” also).

Component that can be preset	Button	Factory setting
TV	TV	Sony TV
VCR	VCR	Sony VHS VCR
Analog cable box/Digital cable box/	CBL/SAT	—
Digital satellite receiver/DVD/TV/
	DVD	Sony DVD player
VCR/Digital video recorder/DAV

Notes

•The Commander can be set up to operate only one component per button – unless their code numbers happen to be the same. For example, you cannot set up the Commander to operate a Sony TV and a Panasonic TV simultaneously (because they use different code numbers).

•You may not be able to operate even a Sony brand component with the factory presetting. In such a case, follow the procedure in “Setting the Code.”

Notes on Batteries

•Do not mix old batteries with new ones or mix different types of batteries together.

•If the electrolyte inside the battery should leak, wipe the contaminated area of the battery compartment with a cloth and replace the old batteries with new ones. To prevent the electrolyte from leaking, remove the batteries when you plan not to use the Commander for a long period of time.

Setting the Code

Follow the steps 1 and 2 below for each component you plan to use with the Commander.

Step 1: Entering the Code Number

1 See the supplied “Component Code numbers”, and find the three- digit code number for the desired component.

If more than one code number is listed, use the number that’s listed first to complete the steps below.

For example, if you’re setting up a Philips’ VCR, you would use the code number 035.

If your component isn’t listed, see “Searching for the Correct Code.”

2	While pressing the SET button,		SET	POWER
	press the POWER button.
3	Press the button of the	TV	VCR	CBL / SAT DVD
	component that you want to set
	up.

Note

On the CBL/SAT and DVD buttons, “cable box”, and “DVD player” are assigned respectively at the factory. But you can also assign other components on these buttons. For details, see “Changing the Component Type on the CBL/SAT and DVD buttons.”

not listed in the “Component Code Numbers” tables), try these steps.

1Power on the component you want to set up. Insert a tape or disc if necessary.

2While pressing the SET button, press the POWER button.

3Press the button of the component on the Commander that you want to set up.

4Press and release the CH+ button. Then press and release the POWER button.

5Repeat step 4 until the correct code number is found.

Each time you press the CH+ button and then the POWER button, a new code number will be transmitted.

Keep trying until your component operates by receiving the transmitted signal from the Commander (e.g., the power turns off, the CH+ function works, playback starts, etc). Be patient as you do this; it may take about 70 tries until the correct code number is located.

6When the correct code is found, press the ENT button to store the code number in the Commander’s memory.

7Check that the Commander is operating the other functions of your component by pressing the corresponding buttons on the Commander. If they seem to be working properly, you’re done setting up the Commander.

If the component does not operate properly, repeat steps 1 to 6 and search for another code.

If you still cannot get the Commander to work properly, see “Troubleshooting.”

Basically, use this Commander in the same way as the Commanders supplied with your components.

•Using this Commander will not increase the functions of your components. The functions of the Commander are limited to the functions of the components themselves. For example, if your TV does not have a MUTING function, the MUTING button on this Commander will not function with your TV.

•Some functions of the component may not work with this Commander.

•If your cable box can control volume, be sure to set its volume switch to a medium position. If the volume on the cable box is turned down completely, you will not be able to adjust your TV’s volume with the Commander.

component doesn’t work, try all the codes for your component - in the order

in which they’re listed. If all the codes fail to work (or if your component is

not listed in this manual), try using the procedures in “Searching for the

Correct Code.”

• Check that you’re aiming the Commander directly at the component, and that

there are no obstructions between the Commander and the component.

• Make sure the batteries you’re using are not worn out, and that they’re

inserted correctly.

• Check that the button of the TV, VCR, CBL/SAT, or DVD is pressed to choose

your desired component.

• Check that the component has infrared remote capability. For example, if

your component didn’t come with a remote commander, it probably isn’t

capable of being controlled by a remote commander.

• Should any problem persist, reset the Commander to the factory setting by

pressing the POWER, TV/VIDEO and VOL– buttons simultaneously.
