HDMI CEC-Compatible Devices
If an HDMI CEC-compatible device (e.g., Blu-ray player, AV receiver) is connected with an HDMI cable, you can
operate the device with the televisions remote control. We recommend using the HDMI (ARC) connection when
used with an AV receiver – please refer to the ARC section of this Operation Manual. First, the CEC-compatible
devices must "discover" one another and report their capabilities. After this, one device can control another
according to the features you enable.

select Search for CEC devices. Press OK to repeat the discovery process, if necessary.
