Notes on replacing the batteries
• Do not attempt to recharge dry batteries.
• Do not carry dry batteries together with coins
or other metallic objects. This can generate
heat if the positive and negative terminals of
the batteries accidentally come into contact
with metallic objects.
• When you are not going to use the unit for a
long time, remove the batteries to avoid
damage from battery leakage and corrosion.
• Do not use different types of batteries at the
same time.
• When you replace the batteries, replace them
both with new ones.

Problem Solution
Learning fails. • When you make the Remote Commander learn the remote control
signals, be sure to keep about 1 to 3 inches (3 to 8 cm) between the
remote control of the components and the Remote Commander.
• Check the remaining battery level of the remote control of the
components. If low, replace with new ones.
• Avoid learning in places under direct sunlight or strong
fluorescent light. The Remote Commander may fail to learn
remote control signals under strong light.
• When you program signals of an interactive signal exchange
system remote control unit (supplied with some of Sony’s
receivers and amplifiers) to the Remote Commander, the response
signal of the main unit may interfere with the learning of the
Remote Commander. In such a case, move to a place where the
signals will not reach the main unit (e.g. other rooms, etc.).
• Perform the Learning procedure after turning off any nearby
apparatus, such as an air-conditioner or infrared headphones.
