Features available
Reduce unnecessary power consumption in standby
Standby Power Save
Set Standby Power Save “On” in the Setup Menu to use this function
“Standby Power Save” (p. 30)
The power consumption in Standby mode of the connected equipment is controlled in synchronization with the
TV On / Off state.
When the TV is set to Standby mode, the connected equipment is automatically set to Standby and the power
consumption in Standby mode of the connected equipment is automatically minimized.
When the TV is turned on and the connected equipment is still in Standby mode, the power consumption of the
connected equipment is increased to reduce the startup time.
This function is effective if the connected equipment can change the power consumption in Standby mode
and is set to higher consumption.
Auto standby for unnecessary equipment
Intelligent Auto Standby
Set Intelligent Auto Standby “On (With reminder)” or “On (No reminder)” in the Setup Menu to
use this function
“Intelligent Auto Standby” (p. 30)
When the TV is On, non-watched or non-used connected equipment goes into Standby mode automatically
to reduce power consumption. For example, when the input mode is switched from HDMI, the connected
equipment will go into Standby mode / when Speaker Selection is changed to “TV”, the Player theatre will go
into Standby mode (except when watching a disc).
If you select “On (With reminder)”, the on screen message will be displayed before the connected equipment
turns to Standby.
This function may not work properly depending on the connected equipment. If required, set to “Off”.
