∗Enjoy additional HDMI Inter-Operability with Panasonic products which have “HDAVI Control” function. This TV supports “HDAVI Control 2” function.

Connections to some Panasonic equipment (DVD Recorder DIGA, HD Video Camera, Player theatre, Amplifier, etc.) with HDMI cables allow you to interface them automatically.

The equipment with “HDAVI Control” function enables the following operations:

These features are limited to models incorporating Panasonic’s “HDAVI Control” and “VIERA Link”.

As such, its operation with other manufacturers’ equipment that supports HDMI CEC cannot be guaranteed.

Refer to individual manuals for compatibility information. About applicable equipment, consult your local Panasonic dealer.
