Advanced Remote Operations
If the LEARN indicator flashes rapidly
You cannot use the button you’ve pressed.
4 On the other remote, select the function that the
amplifier’s remote is to “learn” and hold down its
button until the LEARN indicator lights steadily.
5 Repeat Steps 3 and 4 to programme other buttons.
Note that each button can only “learn” one signal
from another remote.
6 Press LEARN.
After the LEARN indicator turns off, you can
control the other component with the
programmed buttons.
When you programme the recording signal
While holding down the r button on the amplifier’s
remote and press the record button on the other remote.
If you cannot successfully programme signals, check
the following:
• If the LEARN indicator does not light up at all, the
batteries are weak. Replace both batteries.
• If the LEARN indicator does not flash or light up in
Step 3 or 4, there is interference. Clear the signal as
described in “Clearing the programmed signal”
below and programme again from the beginning.
• The two remotes are placed too far apart. Make sure
they are only 5 cm apart.
• If you don’t proceed to the following steps within
about 1 minute during Steps 2 and 3, the remote
automatically exits learning mode. Start again from
Step 2.
• If the memory in the remote has become full, (If you
programme signals of Sony components, you can
store about 60 signals.) you can programme a new
signal on a previously programmed button, but the
new signal will replace the previously programmed
one.
Notes
• You cannot turn on programmed components by pressing
a SYSTEM CONTROL/FUNCTION button. You have to
turn on the component's power switch.
• Do not programme remote signals of air conditioners or
other household appliances.
Clearing the programmed signal
To clear the programmed signals, do the following.
The button’s functions are reset to the factory-preset.
1 Press LEARN to turn on the LEARN indicator.
2 While holding down BACKGROUND, hold down
the button to be cleared until the LEARN
indicator turns off.

Programming the Remote
The remote can control non-Sony components by
“learning” the control signals from their remotes. Once
this remote learns the other components signals, you
can use these components as part of your system.
Additionally, if you have any Sony components that
fail to operate with this remote, use this programming
function. This remote can “learn” signals only from
other infrared wireless remotes. Before you
programme signals, make sure that the two remotes:
• Face straight at each other (see Step 3 below)
• Are placed at a distance of about 5 cm
• Are not moved during programming
1 Press the SYSTEM CONTROL/FUNCTION
button of the component you want to programme.
For example, if you want to programme a CD
player’s remote, press CD.
2 Press LEARN to turn on the LEARN indicator.
3 Press the button on this unit’s remote that is to
“learn” the signal from the other remote.
The LEARN indicator flashes slowly.
Use only the shaded buttons shown above (see
“Remote Button Descriptions” on page 21 for the
buttons you can use to operate each component).
