On operation

Before connecting other components, be sure to turn off and unplug the receiver.

On cleaning

Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent solution. Do not use any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such as alcohol or benzine.

If you have any question or problem concerning your remote, please consult your nearest Sony dealer.

Before you use your remote

Inserting batteries into the remote

Insert three R6 (size-AA) batteries with the + and - properly oriented in the battery compartment.

Tip

Under normal conditions, the batteries should last for about 3 months. When the remote no longer operates the receiver, replace all the batteries with new ones.

Notes

• Do not leave the remote in an extremely hot or humid place.
• Do not use a new battery with old ones.
• Do not mix the alkaline batteries and other kinds of batteries.

When you use two CD players, set the COMMAND MODE selector on the back panel of the CD players to "CD1" and "CD2" respectively, and set the category in the IR SET list to match the corresponding player's COMMAND MODE selector position (see page 16). When you use three CD players, set the COMMAND MODE selector to "CD1", "CD2", and "CD3" respectively, and set the category in the IR SET list to match the corresponding player's COMMAND MODE selector position.

When setting category for the CD players, do not skip the number or select the same number to the multiple players.
