The Accessibility shortcut function provides an easier and faster way to switch your favorite accessibility function.
Note: The Accessibility shortcut function is not available during initial setup.
To enable the Accessibility shortcut function, press and hold the MUTE button on the TV remote control for more than five seconds.
Notes:
- When you use the Accessibility shortcut function for the first time, a message will appear and the TV will read the title: Use Accessibility Shortcut? The TV will then read the focused button: USE SHORTCUT. By pressing the Enter button on the remote control, the accessibility shortcut is enabled and the TalkBack feature is assigned to the Accessibility shortcut function.
- The default setting of the Accessibility shortcut function is set to use the TalkBack feature, which Sony recommends you use.
- When the TalkBack feature is set to ON, Edit in Quick Settings cannot be used.
- For eARC supported models, when the TalkBack is activated, eARC mode will be Off.
- On the remote control, press the Quick Settings ( or ) button and select Settings.
- Select System.
- Select Accessibility.
- Select Accessibility shortcut.
- Select Shortcut service.
- Select your preferred accessibility function.
Instead of starting from the Setting menu, you can turn the desired accessibility function ON or OFF by pressing and holding the MUTE button on the remote control until you hear a response (more than five seconds).
