etc., without complicated setting.
This TV supports “HDAVI Control 5” function. But

manual of the equipment to confirm the version.
VIERA Link features may be available even with other
manufacturers’ equipment supporting HDMI CEC.

products which have “HDAVI Control” function.
These features are limited to models incorporating
“HDAVI Control” and “VIERA Link”.
Some functions are not available depending on the

VIERA Link “HDAVI Control”, based on the control
functions provided by HDMI which is an industry
standard known as HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics
Control), is a unique function that we have developed
and added. As such, its operation with other
manufacturers’ equipment that supports HDMI CEC
cannot be guaranteed.

manufacturers’ equipment supporting VIERA Link
function.

local Panasonic dealer.
