Product Usage Instructions

1. Insert batteries: Open the battery compartment on the back of the remote control and insert two AAA batteries. Take care to observe the correct polarity.
2. Use factory settings: With the batteries inserted and the battery compartment closed, the remote control is ready to use with the factory settings. No additional settings are required to control approximately 90% of all SONY devices.
3. Change batteries: When the low battery display appears on the remote control screen or if the remote control becomes unresponsive, replace the batteries with two new AAA batteries. Note that the remote control saves the settings even during a battery change.
4. Code input: If the remote control does not work with the factory settings, you can enter a three-digit code from the code list to set it up for use with your SONY device. To do so, follow these steps:
5. Press and hold the [MUTE] and [POWER] buttons simultaneously for approximately 3 seconds until the status LED lights up.
6. Enter the three-digit code from the code list. When all three digits have been entered, the status LED goes out.
7. Additional notes:
   • The remote control has a built-in energy saving function that switches it off automatically if a button is pressed for longer than 15 seconds. This prolongs the life of the batteries if the remote control is stuck in a place where the buttons are pressed permanently, e.g. between sofa cushions.
   • If you sell the device, please pass these operating instructions on to the new owner.

   Proceed accordingly for the 2nd and 3rd digits of the code:
   2nd digit -> enter 2 -> count flashing signals
   3rd digit -> enter 3 -> count flashing signals If a digit of the device code is a 0, the LED does not flash.

Overview of compatible remote controls

• The distance between the two remote controls should be approx. 3 cm.

Note

• Do not move the remote controls during the learning process.
• Make sure that the room lighting is not fluorescent tubes or energy-saving lamps, as these could cause interference and thus hinder the learning process.
• The distance between the two remote controls and the nearest light source should be at least 1 metre.
• The learning process is terminated without saving if no button is pressed or no signal is received for 15 sec. while learning mode is activated.
