CEC

With CEC function of your TV you can operate a 

connected device with the TV remote control. This 

function uses HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics 

Control) to communicate with the connected devices. 

Devices must support HDMI CEC and must be 

connected with an HDMI connection.

In order to make use of the CEC functionality the 

related option in the menu should be switched on. 

To check, switch on or off the CEC function, do the 

following:
•  Enter the 

Settings>Device

Preferences>Inputs 

menu on the Home Screen or 

TV options>Settings>-

Device Preferences>Inputs

 menu in Live TV mode.

•  Scroll down to 

Consumer Electronic Control 

(CEC)

 section. Check if the 

HDMI control

 option 

is switched on.

•  Highlight the 

HDMI control

 option and press 

OK

switch on or off.

Ma

ke sure that all CEC settings are properly set up 

on the connected CEC device. The CEC functionality 

has different names on different brands. CEC function 

might not work with all devices. If you connect a device 

with HDMI CEC support to your TV, the related HDMI 

input source will be renamed with the connected 

device's name.
To operate the connected CEC device, select the 

related HDMI input source from the 

Inputs

 menu on 

the Home Screen. Or press the

source from the list. To terminate this operation and

switch to another source.
The TV remote is automatically able to control the 

device once the connected HDMI source has been 

selected. However not all buttons will be forwarded 

to the device. Only devices that support CEC Remote 

Control function will respond to the TV remote control.
The TV supports also ARC(Audio Return Channel) 

feature. This feature is an audio link meant to replace 

other cables between the TV and the audio system 

(A/V receiver or speaker system). Connect the audio 

system to the HDMI2 input on the TV to enable ARC 

feature.
