I have the XA-777ES manual and it has the same instructions

I was reviewing my manual with an aim to doing the realignment and also saw that note. It appears that you should do this three times with each of CD, SACD, SACD (dual layer).

The detailed disc operation checks should be done with CD, SACD, SACD (dual layer), and hybrid discs but this is more complex. It will be useful if most of the realignment can be done automatically by the system using the "power on with disc" method.

Specifically, on page 4:

Resetting Operation at Power On
If the power is turned on with a disc loaded in the set, a sequence of operation as shown below will be performed. (The operation varies depending on the type of disc).
Condition: continue mode.

1. CD
1. Sled reverse move (sled in)
2. Disc detect
3. IC setting for CD
4. Servo error signal offset auto adjustment
5. Spindle kick for LD on
6. LD on
7. Focus search
8. Focus servo on
9. Spindle kick
10. Spindle servo on
11. E-F balance auto adjustment
12. Tracking and sled servo on
13. Focus bias auto adjustment
14. Focus servo gain auto adjustment
15. Tracking servo gain auto adjustment
16. Jump to lead-in area
17. Read TOC
18. Stop

1. SACD (single layer)
1. Sled reverse move (sled in)
2. Disc detect
3. IC setting for SACD
4. Servo error signal offset auto adjustment
5. Spindle kick for LD on
6. LD on
7. Focus search
8. Focus servo on
9. Spindle kick
10. Spindle servo on
11. E-F balance auto adjustment
12. Tracking and sled servo on
13. Focus bias auto adjustment
14. Focus servo gain auto adjustment
15. Tracking servo gain auto adjustment
16. Jump to lead-in area
17. Read TOC
18. Stop

3. SACD (dual layer)
1. Sled reverse move (sled in)
2. Disc detect
3. IC setting for SACD
4. Servo error signal offset auto adjustment
5. Spindle kick for LD on
6. LD on
7. Focus search
8. Focus servo on (layer 0)
9. Spindle kick
10. Spindle servo on
11. E-F balance auto adjustment (layer 0)
12. Tracking and sled servo on (layer 0)
13. Focus bias auto adjustment (layer 0)
14. Focus servo gain auto adjustment (layer 0)
15. Tracking servo gain auto adjustment (layer 0)
16. Jump to lead-in area
17. Read TOC
18. Focus jump (layer 0->layer1)
19. E-F balance auto adjustment (layer 1)
20. Tracking and sled servo on (layer 1)
21. Focus bias auto adjustment (layer 1)
22. Focus servo gain auto adjustment (layer 1)
23. Tracking servo gain auto adjustment (layer 1)
24. Focus jump (layer 1->layer0)
25. Stop

I am having trouble with a few hybrids and will try this soon. Allen Wright has reported that the Hilary Hahn SACD is a dual layer SACD so I will use this one.
