Using “BRAVIA” Sync features
The original Sony functions listed below can also be used with
products that are compatible with “BRAVIA” Sync.
If a “BRAVIA” Sync-compatible TV is connected to the system, the
power consumption will be reduced in standby mode by stopping
HDMI signal transmission when the TV is turned off with the pass-
through function* of the system set to “AUTO” (page 11).
The default setting is “AUTO.”
If any TV other than “BRAVIA” is connected, set the item to “ON”
(page 11).
* The pass-through function for
HDMI signals is used to output the
signals from the HDMI OUT jack of this system even if it is in standby
mode.
 Use a High Speed HDMI cable. If you use a Standard HDMI cable,
1080p, Deep Color, 3D, and 4K images may not be displayed
properly.
 Use an HDMI-authorized cable.
Use a Sony High Speed HDMI cable with the Cable Type Logo.
 We do not recommend using an HDMI-DVI conversion cable.

Check the setup of the connected equipment if an image is poor or
the sound does not come out of the equipment connected via the
HDMI cable.

Audio signals (sampling frequency, bit length, etc.) transmitted
from an HDMI jack may be suppressed by the connected
equipment.
 Sound may be interrupted when the sampling frequency or the
number of channels of audio output signals from the playback
equipment is switched.
 If the connected equipment is not compatible with copyright-
protection technology (HDCP), the image and/or the sound from
the HDMI OUT jack of this system may be distorted or may not be
output. In such a case, check the specifications of the connected
equipment.
 When “TV” is selected as the input source of the system, video
signals via one of the HDMI IN 1/2/3 jacks selected last time are
output from the HDMI OUT jack.
 This system supports Deep Color, “x.v.Color,” 3D, and 4K
transmission.
 To enjoy 3D images, connect a 3D-compatible TV and video
equipment (Blu-ray Disc player, “PlayStation
®
4,” etc.) to the system
using High Speed HDMI cables, put on 3D glasses, and then play
back a 3D-compatible Blu-ray Disc, etc.
 To enjoy 4K images, the TV and players that are connected to the
system must be compatible with 4K images.
