certain functions of the streaming player and for the streaming player to control certain
functions of the TV.

streaming player, if the TV is in standby mode, the TV also wakes up.
Your TV uses CEC to control the streaming player in the following ways.
• Pressing the TV Power button to power down or go to standby mode places the
streaming player in standby mode.
• The streaming player becomes a TV CEC device.
• Certain TV remote control buttons can operate the streaming player through CEC. For

operate the streaming player.
