Aspect control

This button is used to move through the different aspect ratios. The aspect options are Panasonic Auto, 16:9, 14:9, 4:3, Zoom1, Zoom2 and Zoom3.

Panasonic Auto determines the best aspect ratio to use to fill your screen. It does this using a four-step process to determine if the picture being viewed is a widescreen picture.

If Panasonic Auto detects a widescreen signal it switches into the appropriate 16:9 or 14:9 widescreen mode. If Panasonic Auto does not detect a widescreen signal then this advanced TV set enhances the picture for optimum viewing.

The text shown on the screen indicates how Panasonic Auto determined which ratio to use:

-'WIDE' appears in the top left of the screen if a widescreen identification signal (WSS) is found or a signal found through a Scart socket. Panasonic Auto switches to the appropriate 16:9 or 14:9 widescreen ratio.

-'Panasonic Auto' appears in the top left of the screen if black stripes above and below the picture are detected.

Panasonic Auto chooses the best ratio and expands the picture to fill the screen. This process can take several minutes, depending on the darkness of the picture.

You may prefer to manually select one of the other aspect options available to view the picture.

Notes:

-If, in Panasonic Auto mode, you experience problems with the screen display size when playing back widescreen format recordings from your VCR then it is possible that the tracking control of your VCR requires adjustment (your VCR instruction book will contain adjustment details).

-The widescreen aspect ratios of different films and programmes can vary. If these are wider than a standard 16:9 aspect picture then a black band may be visible at the top and bottom of the screen.
