Hookups and Settings
Step 5: Connecting the
Power Cord
Connect the supplied power cord to the AC IN
terminal of the recorder. Then plug the recorder
and TV power cords into an AC outlet. After you
connect the power cord, you must wait for a
short while before operating the recorder. You
can operate the recorder only after the front panel
display lights up and the recorder enters standby
mode.
If you connect additional equipment to this
recorder (page 29), be sure to connect the power
cord only after all connections are complete.
Step 6: Preparing the
Remote
You can control the recorder using the supplied
remote. Insert two size AA (R6) batteries by
matching the 3 and # ends on the batteries to the
markings inside the battery compartment. When
using the remote, point it at the remote sensor
on the recorder.
Notes
• If the supplied remote interferes your other Sony DVD
recorder or player, change the command mode number
for this recorder (page 23).
• Use the batteries correctly to avoid possible leakage
and corrosion. Do not touch the liquid with bare hands
should leakage occur. Observe the following:
– Do not use a new battery with an old battery, or
batteries of different manufacturers.
– Do not attempt to recharge the batteries.
– If you do not intend to use the remote for an extended
period of time, remove the batteries.
– If battery leakage occurs, wipe out any liquid inside
the battery compartment, and insert new batteries.
• Do not expose the remote sensor (marked on the
front panel) to strong light, such as direct sunlight or
lighting apparatus. The recorder may not respond to the
remote.
