On cleaning
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth
slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do
not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or
solvent such as alcohol or benzine.
If you have any question or problem concerning

dealer.
Before you use your remote
Inserting batteries into the remote
Insert two R6 (size-AA) batteries with the + and

Notes
• Do not leave the remote i n an extremely hot or humid
place.
• Do not use a new battery with old ones.
• Do not expose the remote sensor of the receiver to

Advanced Remote Operations
This chapter describes how to change the factory
setting of the easy scroll key and how to set the
remote to control non-Sony components.
Programming the remote
You can program the remote to control nonSony components. 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.
Note
You cannot program “SOURCE”.
1 Press AV ?/1 while holding down USE
MODE.
The USE MODE button lights and “IR
SET” appears in the display.
2 Move the easy scroll key to select the
input you want to control, then press
the key to enter the selection.
For example, if you are going to control a
CD player, select CD/SACD.
You can also select the TV ?/1 button.
3 Press the numeric buttons to enter the
numeric code (or one of the codes if
more than one code exists)
corresponding to the component and
the maker of the component you want
to control.
See the tables starting from page 10 for
information on the numeric code(s)
corresponding to the component and the
maker of the component. (The first digit and
the last two digits of the numeric code
correspond to the category and the maker’s
code respectively.)
4 Press ENTER.
Once the numeric code has been verified,
the USE MODE button slowly flashes
twice and the remote automatically exits the
programming mode.
5 Repeat steps 1 to 4 to control other
components.
To cancel programming
Press USE MODE during any step. The remote
automatically exits the programming mode.
To use the programmed input
Move the easy scroll key to select the
programmed input, then press the key to enter
the selection.
If programming is unsuccessful, check the following:
•If the USE MODE button does not light up in step
1, the batteries are weak. Replace both batteries.
•If the USE MODE button flashes 4 times in quick
succession while entering the num eric code , an er ror
has occurred. Start again from step 1.
• In step 1, the remote automatica lly exits the
programming mode if 60 seconds has passed after
pressing USE MODE. Start again from step 1.
Notes
• The USE MODE button turns off while a valid
button is pressed.
• In step 2, if you press the easy scroll key several
times, only the last selected input is valid.
• In step 2, if you press TV ?/1, only TV VOL +/–,
TV CH +/–, TV/VIDEO and WIDE bu ttons are
reprogrammed.
• In step 3, if you press the easy scroll key, the new
input is selected and the programming procedure
returns to the beginning of step 3.
• For the numeric codes, only the first three numbers
entered are valid.
To clear the memory of the remote
Press ?/1, AV ?/1 and MASTER VOL – at the
same time. The USE MODE button flashes 3
times, then goes off.

Page 10
The numeric codes corresponding to the component and the maker of the component
Use the numeric codes in the tables below to
control non-Sony components and also Sony
components that the remote is normally unable
to control. Since the remote signal that a
component accepts differs depending on the
model and year of the component, more than one
numeric code may be assigned to a component.
If you fail to program your remote using one of
the codes, try using other codes.
Notes
• The numeric codes are based on the latest
information available for each brand. There is a
chance, however, that your component will not
respond to some or all of the codes.
• All of the functions on this remote may not be
available when used with your particular c omponent.

For example, if you are going to learn an
operation for a CD player, select CD/
SACD.
You can also select the TV ?/1
button.
3 Press the button you want to use for
the Learning function.
The USE MODE button turns off while a

5 Press the appropriate button on the
remote control to be learned to send
the remote button code.
Lightly pressing the button once should be
sufficient.
If learning is completed successfully, the
USE MODE button slowly flashes twice
and the remote automatically exits the
learning mode.
When learning is not completed
successfully, the USE MODE button
flashes 4 times in quick succession and the
procedure returns to step 5.
If the memory of the remote is already full,
the USE MODE button flashes 8 times in
quick succession and the remote
automatically exits the learning mode.
Notes
• You can program at the most 80 keys for the
Learning function. In some cases, you may not be
able to program even if you have not programmed 80
buttons.
• In steps 2 and 3, the USE MODE button turns off
while a valid button is pressed.
• In step 3, if several buttons that can be used for
learning are pressed, only the last pressed button is
valid. The USE MODE button blinks slowly, then
lights when the valid button is selected.
• In step 5, if a button that can be used for learning is
pressed, the new button is selected and the learning
procedure returns to the beg inning of step 5.
To cancel learning
Press USE MODE during any step. The remote
automatically exits the learning mode.
To clear the learned codes
Start again from step 1.
After step 3, press TV ?/1 for more than 2
seconds. The USE MODE button blinks twice
slowly and the learned code is cleared.
If TV ?/1 is pressed less than 2 seconds, the
learning procedure returns to the beginning of
step 5.
When a learned code is cleared, if the button was
previously programmed for another input, the
programmed code for that input can be used.
To use the learned input
Move the easy scroll key to select the learned
input, then press the key to enter the selection.
To use a command that has been learned
Select a learned input, then press the learned
button for that input.

automatically exits the learning mode.
6 Repeat steps 1 through 5 to program
up to 10 IR codes.
Tip
If programming is unsuccessful, check the following:
– If the USE MODE button does not light up in step 1,
the batteries are weak. Replace both batteries.

automatically exits the macro setting mode.
To delay the output of an IR code
Start over from step 1.
In step 3, press the easy scroll key lightly (for
less than 2 seconds). A 1 second delay is
programmed. The USE MODE button lights
twice slowly, then the remote automatically
exits the macro setting mode.
To clear the programmed IR codes
Clear each macro step individually. In step 3,
press the easy scroll key for more than 2

MODE button lights twice slowly, then the
remote automatically exits the macro setting
mode.
To start macro play
Move the easy scroll key to select “M1” or
“M2”, then press the key to enter the
selection
Note
If the Macro Play function does not work properly,
program a delay between each operation. See “To
delay the output of an IR code”.
Selecting the mode of the remote
You can switch the command mode (AV1 or
AV2) of the remote. If the command mode of the

switches.
To set the 2nd zone mode (North American models only)
You can use the remote to select the input for the
2nd zone. You can use the easy scroll key only
for the 2nd zone.
1 Press ?/1 while holding down USE
MODE.
2 Move the easy scroll key to select
“2ND”, then press the key to enter the
selection.
The USE MODE button lights once, then
