Using the HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) protocol, with AQUOS LINK you 
can interactively operate compatible system devices (AV amplifier, DVD player/recorder, 
Blu-ray player/recorder) using a single remote control unit.

AQUOS LINK-compatible AQUOS AUDIO speaker system and AQUOS Recorder are scheduled 
to be on sale after the release of this TV (as of July 2008).

You do not have to search for the remote control unit of your recording device. Press the 
REC 

E or REC STOP H buttons inside the flip cover to start/stop recording what you 

see on the recorder.

When the TV is in standby mode, it will automatically turn on and play back the image 
from the HDMI source.

AQUOS LINK automatically recognises the connected HDMI devices and you can 
control the TV and the devices as if using a universal remote control unit.

In addition to displaying the TV’s own Timer list (Page 12), you can also call up the 
external player’s Top menu or AQUOS BD Player’s/AQUOS Recorder’s Title list provided 
that the devices support AQUOS LINK.

You can select which HDMI device to operate using the OPTION button.

When you use AQUOS LINK, make sure to use a certified HDMI cable.
Point the remote control unit toward the TV, not to the connected HDMI device.
Video noise may occur depending on the type of HDMI cable used. Make sure to use a certified 
HDMI cable.
Up to three HDMI recording devices, one AV amplifier and two players can be connected using 
this system.
These operations affect the HDMI device selected as the current external source. If the device 
does not operate, turn on the device and select the appropriate external source using 

b.

When you insert/remove HDMI cables or change connections, turn on all connected HDMI 
devices before turning on the TV. Confirm that picture and audio are correctly output by selecting 
“HDMI1”, “HDMI2” or “HDMI3” from the “INPUT SOURCE” menu.
