You can program the remote to control non-
Sony components by changing the code. Once
the control signals have been memorized, you
can use those components as part of your
system.
Furthermore, you can also program the remote
for Sony components that the remote is unable to
control. Note that the remote can only control
components that accept infrared wireless control
signals.

to control.
See the tables on pages 51–53 for

If programming is unsuccessful,
check the following:

succession while entering the numeric code,
an error has occurred. Start again from step 1.
