Remote Control Configuration for VCR or DVD
In it’s default condition this remote control will operate the basic functions of this Sony TV, Sony DVDs and 
most Sony VCRs. To control VCRs and DVDs of other manufacturers (and some Sony VCR models), the 
remote control needs to be configured.
To do this:

On those brands that have more than one code, enter the first code number.
• Sony will endeavour to update the software according to market changes. Therefore, please 
refer to the code table included with the remote control for latest code set.

code for your brand of VCR or DVD (see the list below) using the number 
buttons
 on the remote control (see fig. 2). 
 If your selected code is entered correctly, the green VCR or DVD 
light (according to your selection) will be lit momentarily (see fig. 
3), otherwise repeat all the above steps.
3
Turn on your VCR or DVD and check that the main functions (playback, 
stop, rewind, fast forward and channel selection for both VCR and DVDs 
as well as Menu and cursors buttons only for DVDs) work.
•  If your device is not working or some of the functions do not work please check that you 
entered the correct code or try the next code listed against the brand. 
• Not all brands are covered and not all models of every brand may be covered.

Always remember to press the 
>
 or 
.
 button until the green light iluminates according to
