After inserting the batteries into the remote
Place it undisturbed on a flat surface for about 10 seconds to allow the internal circuitry to calibrate.
To avoid damage caused by battery leakage and corrosion
Remove the batteries when the commander will not be used for a long time.
Battery life
• Normal operation can be expected about three months using Sony SUM-3 (NS), and a half year using Sony AM-3 (NW) alkaline batteries. Since the remote consumes power whenever you pick it up and an on-screen display appears, the service life of the batteries may be less than three months, depending on how much you handle the remote.
• When the batteries become weak, LOW will appear on the display during the initial on-screen displays (but possibly not at the deeper menu levels). When EMPTY appears, the batteries are almost completely drained and will soon need to be replaced.

Preparing and Using the Remote
Preventing Interference Between Multiple Remotes (STR-DE905G only)
If you use two or more receivers at the same time, interference may occur between the RF signals, causing the units to operate erratically. You can prevent this by giving all units a unique security number which distinguishes the signal of each unit from the others. Follow the procedure below to assign a security number to each unit.
1 Turn off the power to the unit.
2 Turn on the unit again while simultaneously
holding down the PHONO, CD, and TUNER buttons on the front panel. “SECURITY No.” appears in the display. Enter a number from 0 to 15 by pressing PHONO, CD or TUNER on the front panel. Make sure that the number is different from the security code of the other units.
3 After a few seconds, “SECURITY OK!” appears,
indicating that the code has been recorded.
