Screen Formats

The pictures you receive may be transmitted in 16:9 format (wide screen) or 4:3 format (conventional screen). 4:3 pictures sometimes have a black band at the top and bottom of the screen (letterbox format). This function allows you to optimise the picture display on screen.

Press the ∏ button or Í/Æ button to select the different modes:

This TV set is also equipped with automatic switching which will select the correct-screen format, provided the specific signals are transmitted with the programmes.
