2 Check Firmware Version
CAUTION: If the player has the most recent firmware, there is no need to perform
a firmware update.
1) Press the [POWER] button on the player to turn it ON.
2) Press the [FUNCTION MENU] button on the remote control to display the player’s
FUNCTION MENU, this step is only necessary if there is a disc in the Blu-ray player.
The Blu-ray player should be in the stop mode.
3) Using the [DOWN ARROW] on the remote control, highlight OTHER FUNCTIONS and
then press [OK].
4) Press the [OK] button while Setup is selected.
5) Using the [UP ARROW] or [DOWN ARROW] on the remote control, highlight OTHERS
and then press [OK].
6) Using the [UP ARROW] or [DOWN ARROW] on the remote control, highlight
SYSTEM INFORMATION and then press [OK].
CAUTION: Compare the current firmware version displayed to the firmware
version received or downloaded. If they are the same, or the firmware version
displayed in the player is higher, there is no need to install the firmware.
Reasons why the player may have a more recent firmware version:
If the player was manufactured after the firmware was released, the firmware
update may have already been installed.
If the player was serviced by an authorized Panasonic service center, a service
technician may have already installed the latest firmware update.
The number displayed is
dependent upon the
firmware version installed.
