Using the remote control with VCR and DVD players
This remote control has been configured to operate not only Sony DVDs and VCRs but also those made by other manufacturers. To
operate other makes of DVD and VCR using this remote control, complete the following procedure:
1.
Find the 3 digit code for your brand from the list below. If your brand has more than one code
allocated to it, make a note of the first code only at this stage.
2.
Press the Media Selector button on the remote control until either the VCR green light or the
DVD green light illuminates.
3.
With the required green light illuminated, press and hold down the YELLOW button for
approximately 6 seconds, until the light starts to flash.
4.
Using the numbered buttons, enter the 3 digit code for your DVD or VCR. Once a correct
number has been entered, all three green lights will illuminate momentarily.
5.
Turn on your DVD or VCR and check that the remote control operates the main functions. If not,
repeat steps 2 - 4 and enter the next 3 digit code allocated to your brand of VCR or DVD.
6.
When you wish to use the remote control to operate the TV again, press the Media Selector
button until the TV green light illuminates. Don’t forget to select VCR or DVD using the Media
Selector button every time you wish to operate that equipment with this remote control.
Note: 
The brand codes you set may be lost if weak batteries are not replaced immediately. Should this happen, use the
above procedure to reset the code. A small label has been attached to the inside of the battery cover for you to make
a note of your brand codes. Not all brands and models of DVDs or VCRs are covered in this list. However, Sony will
endeavour to update the software periodically, so please refer to the code table provided with your remote control.
