(Refer to the operating
instructions for the TV.)

TV

Step 1 Connections

≥Turn off all equipment before connection and read the appropriate operating instructions.

Do not connect the AC mains lead until all other connections are completed.

∫ HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface)

≥ The HDMI connection supports VIERA Link “HDAVI Control” (> 25) when used with a compatible Panasonic TV.
≥ Use the ARC compatible High Speed HDMI Cables. Non-HDMI-compliant cables cannot be utilised.
≥ It is recommended that you use Panasonic’s HDMI cable.

∫ IR (Infrared) Blaster

≥ Do not use the IR Blaster if the TV’s remote control sensor is not blocked by the main unit. (> 14)

Connection with the TV

Verify if the TV’s HDMI terminal is labelled “HDMI (ARC)”.

Connection differs depending on the label printed next to the HDMI terminal.

Labelled “HDMI (ARC)”: Connection [A]
Not Labelled “HDMI (ARC)”: Connection [B]

∫ What is ARC?

ARC is an abbreviation of Audio Return Channel, also known as HDMI ARC. It refers to one of the HDMI functions. When you
connect the main unit to the terminal labelled “HDMI (ARC)” on the TV, the optical digital audio cable that is usually required in
order to listen to sound from a TV is no longer required, and TV pictures and sound can be enjoyed with a single HDMI cable.

A To a household mains socket
B AC mains lead (supplied)

≥

This system consumes a small amount of AC power (>30) even when it is turned off. In the interest of power
conservation, if you will not be using this system for a long time, unplug it from the household mains socket.

Saving energy

The main unit is designed to conserve its power consumption and save energy.

≥

The main unit will automatically switch to standby mode when no signal is input and no operation is
performed for approx. 20 minutes. Refer to page 24, “AUTO POWER DOWN” to turn this function off.

Safety Precautions

Professional installation is required.
The installation should never be done by any other than a qualified installation specialist.
PANASONIC DISCLAIMS ANY PROPERTY DAMAGE AND/OR SERIOUS INJURY, INCLUDING
DEATH RESULTING FROM IMPROPER INSTALLATION OR INCORRECT HANDLING.

≥ Be sure to install the main unit as indicated within this operating Instructions.
≥ Attach using techniques suited to the structure and materials of the installation location.

Caution

≥ This system is to be used only as indicated in these instructions. Failure to do so may lead to

damage to the amplifier and/or the speaker, and may result in the risk of fire. Consult a qualified
service person if damage has occurred or if you experience a sudden change in performance.

≥ Do not attempt to attach the main unit to a wall using methods other than those described in this

manual.



≥ Do not hold the main unit in one hand to avoid injury, you may drop the main unit when carrying it.
≥ To prevent damage or scratches, lay down a soft cloth and perform the assembly on it.

The active subwoofer

When carrying the active subwoofer

A Do not hold the active subwoofer from this

opening.

The parts inside may get damaged.

B Always hold the bottom of the active subwoofer when

moving it.

Wireless interference

To avoid interference, maintain the following distances between the main unit/active subwoofer
and other electronic devices that use the same radio frequency (2.4 GHz band).

Selecting the placement method

When placing the main unit
in a rack or on a table

≥ Place the main unit on a flat

and horizontal surface.

When attaching the main
unit to a wall

≥ Place the main unit on a

flat and vertical surface.

Page 15

Page 16

Choose a placement method that suits you best.

∫ When placing the main unit in front of the TV

The main unit may block or interfere with the TV’s various sensors (C.A.T.S. (Contrast Automatic
Tracking System) sensor, remote control sensor, etc.) and the 3D Eyewear transmitters on a 3D
compatible TV.
≥If interference occurs, move the main unit further away from the TV. If the TV still does not function

correctly, try using it in a rack or in the wall mount position.

∫ If the TV’s remote control sensor is blocked by the main unit

Try using the TV’s remote control from a different angle. If the problem persists, you can use the supplied
IR Blaster to relay the signal to the TV. (> 11, 12)



≥ Place the active subwoofer within a few meters of the main unit and in a horizontal position with the top panel facing upward.
≥ Do not use the main unit or the active subwoofer in a metal cabinet.
≥ Placing the active subwoofer too close to the walls and corners can result in excessive bass. Cover walls and windows with

thick curtains.

≥ If irregular colouring occurs on your TV, turn the TV off for about 30 minutes. If it persists, move the main unit and active

subwoofer further away from the TV.

≥ Keep magnetised items away. Magnetised cards, watches, etc., can be damaged if placed too close to the main unit and active

subwoofer.

(VIERA Link “HDAVI Control

TM

”)

What is VIERA Link “HDAVI
Control”?

VIERA Link “HDAVI Control” is a convenient
function that offers linked operations of this
system, and a Panasonic TV (VIERA) under
“HDAVI Control”.
You can use this function by connecting the
equipment with an HDMI cable. See the
operating instructions for connected
equipment for operational details.

Preparation

1 Confirm that the HDMI connection has been

made. (> 9, 10)

2 Set the “HDAVI Control” operations on the

connected equipment (e.g., TV).

3 For the optimal “HDAVI Control” operations

change the following settings on the
connected TV

≥ Set the default speaker settings to this system.
≥ Set the speaker selection settings to this system.

4 Turn on all “HDAVI Control” compatible

equipment and select the TV’s input for this
system so that the “HDAVI Control” function
works properly.

5 If a device is connected to the HDMI AV IN

terminal, start play to check that the picture is
displayed on the TV correctly.

When the connection or settings are changed,
repeat this procedure.

§1 The availability and function of the settings may vary
depending on the TV. Refer to the operating instructions
for the TV for details.

§2 If the TV has a default speaker setting within the VIERA
Link setting items, choosing this system as the default
speaker will automatically change the speaker selection
to this system.



≥ VIERA Link “HDAVI Control”, based on the control

functions provided by HDMI which is an industry standard
known as HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control), is a
unique function that we have developed and added. As
such, its operation with other manufacturers’ equipment
that supports HDMI CEC cannot be guaranteed.

≥ This unit supports “HDAVI Control 5” function.

“HDAVI Control 5” is the standard for Panasonic’s HDAVI
Control compatible equipment. This standard is compatible
with Panasonic’s conventional HDAVI equipment.

≥ Please refer to individual manuals for other manufacturers’

equipment supporting VIERA Link function.
