VIERA Link doesn’t work. Check the HDMI cable connection. Check that “HDMI” is displayed on the front
display when the power for the main unit is set to On.
Make sure that “VIERA Link” is set to “On”.
Check the “HDAVI Control” settings on the connected device.
Some functions may not work depending on the version of “HDAVI Control” of
the connected equipment. This unit supports “HDAVI Control 3” functions.
If the connection for the equipment connected with an HDMI cable was
changed, or if there was a power failure or the plug was removed from the
household mains socket, “HDAVI Control” may not work. In this case, perform
the following operations.
1. When the HDMI cable is connected to all equipment with the power on,
turn the TV (VIERA) on again.
2. Change the TV (VIERA) settings for the “HDAVI Control” function to off,
and then set to on again. (For more information, see the VIERA operating
instructions.)

General Issues DVB-T
Page
Digital broadcasts cannot be
received.
Check the connections.
Digital broadcast may not have started in your region yet.

TV reception worsens after
connecting the unit.
This can occur because the signals are being divided between the unit and
other equipment. It can be solved by using a signal booster, available from
electronics retailers.
After DVB Auto-Setup only some
or no DVB channels are found.
Check to ensure your area is covered by DVB transmissions.
Check that the aerial and antenna cable are designed for DVB.
Use the supplied RF coaxial cable shown in STEP 2, Basic Connection.
If you live within 5-10 km of DVB transmission towers, a combined VHF/UHF
aerial should be adequate. Outside this area, separate VHF and UHF aerials
provide superior reception performance.
Perform “Auto-Setup Restart” in the Setup menu.
