When watching a High Definition TV broadcast, press SCREEN SIZE to cycle through FULL, ZOOM, WIDE, and 4:3.

High Definition TV broadcasting with WIDE selected may hide some of the screen image. If this is the case, select FULL.

Some HD broadcasts may display 4:3 content with side masks. Extended viewing with the sides masked can cause uneven wear. After viewing 4:3 content, try watching a program in full screen motion video.
