Notes Refer to the operating instructions of the Sony

Portable CD/DVD Player for further information on using the AV cordless IR transmitter.

Do not cover the AV cordless IR transmitter and IR receiver with your hands or other objects.

Infrared rays cannot pass through walls or opaque glass. Be sure to place the AV cordless IR transmitter and receiver in an unobstructed position. Using LASER LINK through glass will shorten the transmission range.

Do not place the AV cordless IR transmitter too close to the TV, as this may cause noise and/ or beat.

If you are using the AV cordless IR transmitter only with a battery pack, and the remaining battery capacity becomes low, noise may occur on the pictures and sounds, and the transmission range may shorten. When using LASER LINK, connect the AV cordless IR transmitter to the AC power adaptor or charge the battery.
