Step 5: Connecting the 
Power Cord
Connect the supplied power cord to the AC IN 
terminal of the recorder. Then plug the recorder 
and TV power cords into an AC outlet. After you 
connect the power cord, you must wait for a 
short while before operating the recorder. You 
can operate the recorder only after the front panel 
display lights up and the recorder enters standby 
mode.
If you connect additional equipment to this 
recorder (page 29), be sure to connect the power 
cord only after all connections are complete.
Step 6: Preparing the 
Remote
You can control the recorder using the supplied 
remote. Insert two size AA (R6) batteries by 
matching the 3 and # ends on the batteries to the 
markings inside the battery compartment. When 
using the remote, point it at the remote sensor 
on the recorder.
Notes
• If the supplied remote interferes your other Sony DVD
recorder or player, change the command mode number 
for this recorder (page 23).
• Use the batteries correctly to avoid possible leakage
and corrosion. Do not touch the liquid with bare hands 
should leakage occur. Observe the following:
– Do not use a new battery with an old battery, or 
batteries of different manufacturers.
– Do not attempt to recharge the batteries.
– If you do not intend to use the remote for an extended 
period of time, remove the batteries.
– If battery leakage occurs, wipe out any liquid inside
the battery compartment, and insert new batteries.
• Do not expose the remote sensor (marked
on the
front panel) to strong light, such as direct sunlight or 
lighting apparatus. The recorder may not respond to the 
remote.
