automatically switches to “HDMI / MHL” or “HDMI 2 / MHL” 

(depending on your TV model) from other input when 

MHL-compatible device is connected to HDMI IN / MHL 

or HDMI IN 2 / MHL jack. The availability of “Auto Input 

Change (MHL)” depends on whether the MHL-compatible 

device can support this feature.

• 

You can continue normal usage of the connected MHL-

compatible device (such as receiving calls) depending on 

its capability.

• 

Some remote control functions may not be available 

depending on features of the connected MHL-compatible 

device. Please refer to the device manual for details.

• 

This product is officially MHL-certified for operation 

with other MHL-certified devices. If you encounter any 

problems when using the MHL function, please consult the 

device manufacturer for support.
