Having bought a pre-owned Sony FM stereo tuner through eBay, it came without any manuals. It soon became clear that to get the best from this excellent tuner I needed a decent manual because much of the operation was not intuitive to a newboy to hi fi like me. I managed to download the official Sony multi-lingual manual from Owner-Manuals.com with no problem at all - a really quick and easy service. I'm very glad I did because I found out all the operations of the tuner and was then able to not only set it up quickly but also to get much more from it that poke-and-hope trialling would ever achieve. In my book $4.99 very well spent.

Remember, a minute or two can seem very long, but the code should be located within two minutes. Don't let the VCR scan up more than five channels. If you do the remote may pass up the right code and another two minute search cycle will have to be repeated. If no channel change happens within two minutes, repeat steps 1-4. Should a channel change still not occur, the remote will not work with the desired unit.
