• If you do not use the remote commander for an extended period of time, remove
the batteries to avoid possible damage from battery leakage.
• Do not use a new battery with an old one.
• Do not use different types of batteries.

Notes
• If the TV uses a different remote control system from the one programmed to work
with the VCR, you cannot control your TV with the remote commander.
• You may not be able to use some buttons to control non-Sony TVs due to the remote
commander’s signal limitations.
• If you enter a new code number, the code number previously entered will be erased.
• When you replace the batteries of the remote commander, the code number may
automatically reset to 01 (Sony). If your TV is not a Sony, it is recommended to
manually set the appropriate code number every time you replace the batteries.
• If you set your TV’s code number correctly while the TV is turned on, the TV turns
off automatically.
