version of “HDAVI Control” of the connected TV, 
etc. This unit supports “HDAVI Control 5” 
functions.

• Check the settings of the connected TV, etc.

with HDMI was changed, or if there was a power 
failure or the plug was removed from the 
household mains socket, “HDAVI Control” may 
not work. 
In this case, change TV (VIERA) setting for 
“HDAVI Control” again.
