ZOOM function
You can change the screen size according to the picture aspect ratio. Choose the optimum one from the following ZOOM modes.
AUTO:
When a WSS (Wide Screen Signalling) signal, which shows the aspect ratio of the picture, is included in the broadcast signal or the signal from an external device, the TV automatically changes the ZOOM mode to 16:9 ZOOM mode or FULL mode according to the WSS signal.
If a WSS signal is not included, the picture is displayed in accordance with the ZOOM mode set with the 4:3 AUTO ASPECT function.
•For details of the 4:3 AUTO ASPECT function, see “4:3 AUTO ASPECT” on page 23.
•When the AUTO (WSS) mode does not function correctly due to poor WSS signal quality or when you want to change the ZOOM mode, press the c button and change to another ZOOM mode.
REGULAR:
Use to view a normal picture (4:3 aspect ratio) as its original size is.
PANORAMIC:
This mode stretches the left and right sides of a normal picture (4:3 Aspect Ratio) to fill the screen, without making the picture appear unnatural.

This mode zooms up the Wide Picture (14:9 Aspect Ratio) to the upper and lower limits of the screen.
