Setting up the remote commander

Notes
• With normal use, the batteries should last about three to six months.
• 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.
• Do not leave the remote commander in an extremely hot or humid place.
• Do not drop any foreign object into the remote casing, particularly when replacing the batteries.
• Do not expose the remote sensor to direct light from the sun or lighting apparatus.  Doing so 

may cause a malfunction.

Insert two size AA (R6) batteries 
by matching the + and – on the 
batteries to the diagram inside the 
battery compartment.

Insert the negative (–) end first, 
then push in and down until the 
positive (+) end clicks into 
position.

You can use this remote 
commander to operate this DVD-
VCR and a Sony TV.  Buttons on 
the remote commander marked 
with an orange dot (•) can be used 
to operate your Sony TV.

 

 

If the TV does not have the 

 

symbol near the remote sensor, this 
remote commander will not 
operate the TV.

Setting up the remote commander

The remote commander is preprogramed to control non-Sony TVs.  If your TV is 
listed in the following table, set the appropriate manufacturer’s code number.

Now you can use the ?/1, VOL +/–, CH +/–, MUTING*, TV/VIDEO and  ENTER*  
buttons to control your TV.  You can also use the buttons marked with a dot (•) to 
control a Sony TV.  To control the DVD-VCR, reset TV / DVD·VIDEO to 
DVD·VIDEO.

* for  Sony TV only

If more than one code number is listed, try entering them one at a time until you find 
the one that works with your TV.

Set TV / DVD·VIDEO at the top of the remote commander to TV.

Hold down ?/1, and enter your TV’s code number using the number buttons.  
Then release ?/1.

Setting up the remote commander

Notes
• If you enter a new code number, the code number previously entered will be erased.
• If  the  TV  uses a different remote control system from the one programed to work with the 

DVD-VCR, you cannot control your TV with the remote commander.

• When you replace the batteries of the remote commander, the code number may change.  Set 

the appropriate code number every time you replace the batteries.

Basic hookups

• Be sure to disconnect the AC power cord of each component before connecting.
• Turn off the power to all equipment.
• Do not connect the AC power cords until all of the connections are completed.  If 

you connect the AC power cord before the connections are completed, you may not 
be able to use the Plug and Play function.

• Be sure you make connections firmly.  Loose connections may cause picture 

distortion.

• If your TV does not match any of the examples provided, see your nearest Sony 

dealer or qualified technician.

There are many ways in which your DVD-VCR can be hooked up.  To hook up your 
DVD-VCR so that it works best for you, first scan through the table below.  Then use 
the accompanying diagrams and procedures on the following pages to set up your 
DVD-VCR.

If your TV has audio/video inputs, refer to page 13 for audio/video (A/V) hookup.  
Then follow one of the hookups below.  If your TV does not have A/V inputs, go 
directly to one of the hookups below. 

After you have completed the connections, follow the instructions for setup.

After you have completed the setup, you are ready to use your DVD-VCR.  
Procedures differ depending on the hookup you used.

Caution
Connections between the DVD-VCR’s VHF/UHF connector and the antenna terminals of the 
TV receiver should be made only as shown in the following instructions.  Failure to do so may 
result in operation that violates the regulations of the Federal Communications Commission 
regarding the use and operation of RF devices.  Never connect the output of the DVD-VCR to an 
antenna or make simultaneous (parallel) antenna and DVD-VCR connections at the antenna 
terminals of your receiver.

Note to CATV system installer (in USA)
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820- 40 of the 
NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable 
ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable 
entry as practical.

Antenna only, no cable TV

No cable box or cable box with only a 
few scrambled channels

Cable box with many scrambled 
channels

Basic hookups

If your TV has audio/video (A/V) input jacks, you will get better picture and sound if 
you hook up your DVD-VCR using these connections.  If your TV does not have A/V 
inputs, see the following pages for antenna or cable hookups.  Note that “Advanced 
Hookups” (page 44) explains additional hookup methods that will optimize the 
picture and sound for a true “hometheater” experience.

If you are not planning to use your DVD-VCR to record programs, you only need to 
make the connections shown on this page.  If you want to record regular or cable TV 
programs, complete these connections first, and then go to the following pages for 
antenna or cable hookups.

A  Use this hookup if your TV has stereo jacks

B Use this hookup if your TV does not have stereo jacks

Notes
• To play a tape/disc in stereo, you must use the A/V connection.
• If  you do not have a stereo receiver, connect the white LINE OUT/AUDIO L jack to the 

AUDIO IN jack on your TV.

Basic hookups

Make the following connections if you are using an antenna (if you do not have cable 
TV).

A Use this hookup if you are using:

• VHF/UHF antenna (you get channels 2–13 and channels 14 and higher)
• UHF-only antenna (you get channels 14 and higher)
• Separate VHF and UHF antennas

B Use this hookup if you are using a VHF-only antenna (you get 

If your antenna cable is a flat cable (300-ohm twin lead cable), attach an external 
antenna connector (not supplied) so you can connect the cable to the RF IN 
connector.  If you have separate cables for VHF and UHF antennas, you should use a 
U/V band mixer (not supplied) (page 91).

Basic hookups

Notes
• If you connect the AC power cord before the antenna connections are completed, the channels 

may be incorrectly set.  If this happens, see “Step 6 : Presetting channels” on page 24.

• Do not press any buttons on the DVD-VCR or remote commander during Auto preset.

• Auto preset starts automatically only when you plug in the AC power cord for the first time 

after you purchase the DVD-VCR.

• Auto preset can be performed by pressing x STOP on the unit continuously for 5 seconds or 

more with the DVD-VCR power turned off.

The DVD-VCR automatically presets the DVD-VCR’s clock and TV channels 
when the DVD-VCR is plugged into the AC outlet.

The DVD-VCR starts presetting the 
clock and channels.

When Auto preset is completed, the 
current time appears in the display 
window.

You have now completed DVD-VCR setup.

To change the on-screen display language to French or Spanish, see 
“Step 4 : Selecting a language” on page 19.

The clock is set using a time signal provided by some TV channels.  If the clock 
is incorrect, or “--:--” appears in the display window, see “Using Manual Clock 
Set” on page 22.

To add or disable channels manually, see “Presetting/disabling channels 
manually” on page 26.
