About presetting the remote

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

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

To set up the remote 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 remote with the correct code number for your components. (Also refer to the list
under “Component code numbers” on the front side.)

Sony TV

Analog cable box

Notes

• Make sure that the TV•CD/RADIO switch on the remote is set to TV.
• The remote 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 remote 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.”

Setting the code

Follow the steps of “Entering the code number” and “Checking if the code number works”
below for each component you plan to use with the remote.

Entering the code number

1 See “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’ TV, you would use the code number 011.

If your component isn’t listed, see “Searching for the correct code.”

2 While pressing SET, press POWER on the remote.

3 Press the button of the component that you want to set up (TV or CBL).

4 Enter the component’s code number. For example, if you’re entering the code for a Philips

TV, you would press 011.

5 Press and release ENT to store the code number in the remote’s memory.

6 Go to “Checking if the code number works” to finish setting up.

If you press a wrong button in step 4

Press POWER on the remote while pressing SET and then go back to step 3.

Checking if the code number works

1 Power on the component you want to set up.

2 Aim the remtoe at the component and press a button to check if that button works.

For example, press the POWER button to see if it works on your component .

3 Check that the other buttons of the remote is operating the corresponding functions of the

component.

If the remote doesn’t seem to be working...

• First, try repeating these setup procedures using the other codes listed for your component. (Refer to

the list under “Component code numbers” on the front side.)

• If – after trying all the codes listed for your component – you still cannot get the remote to work

properly, try the search method described in “Searching for the correct code.”

About the remote control

You can use the supplied remote control to operate a TV or analog cable box, as well.

Set the TV•CD/RADIO switch as follows:

To operate a TV or analog cable box: set it to TV

For details on using the remote control to operate a TV or analog cable box, see “Using the

Searching for the correct code

If you’ve tried all the code numbers listed for your component and you still cannot get the
remote to work (or if your component is not listed in the “Component code numbers” tables on
the front side), try these steps.

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

2 While pressing SET, press POWER.

3 Press the button of the component on the remote that you want to set up (TV or CBL).

4 Press and release TUNE/CH+. Then press and release POWER.

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

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

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

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

7 Check that the remote is operating the other functions of your component by pressing the

corresponding buttons on the remote. If they seem to be working properly, you’re done
setting up the remote.

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

Operating a component

1

Press the button of the desired component on the remote (TV or CBL).

2

Point the remote directly at the component.

Notes on using the remote control

Basically, use this remote in the same way as the remote supplied with your components.
• Using this remote will not increase the functions of your components. The functions of the remote 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 remote will not function with your TV.

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

• There may be cases you may turn on/off the cable box by pressing the TUNE/CH + or – button on the

remote.
