Variable Zoom

All programmes that are not transmitted in the traditional 4:3 screen format, such as cinema films in Cinemascope or Super-Cinemascope or 16:9 format, have black bars at the top and bottom of the screen.

With the zoom function, you can increase the size of the picture and make the black bars disappear. Although this also causes part of the picture to move off the screen at each side, the resulting loss of information is slight and less disturbing than the black bars.

Explanation

Press the P+ button until the black bars at the top and bottom of the screen have disappeared. The entire picture is enlarged uniformly.

The selected enlargement factor is automatically stored for this programme position as long as the TV set is not switched off. Switching to another station will restore the picture to its normal size. If you return to the station for which you activa- ted the zoom function, the picture will be auto- matically enlarged if the same programme is still running.

If you wish to use the selected enlargement also for other programmes, press the ￿ key again after setting the zoom factor with the P+ key. This returns the picture to its normal size, but stores the current enlargement factor for subse- quent use.

If the TV set has been switched off with the remote control or the main switch, the stored enlargement factor can be recalled by pressing the ￿ key twice.
