Viewing the wide-screen picture formats
You can view the programs in a variety of picture sizes—Natural,
TheaterWide 1, TheaterWide 2, and Full.
The way the image displays in any of the picture sizes will vary
depending on the format of the program you are viewing. Select the
picture size that displays the current program the way that looks best
to you.

Selecting the picture size

1. Press PIC SIZE on the remote control.
2. Press the corresponding number button (0-4) to select the desired
picture size, as described below and on the next page.
Note:
You also can change the picture size by
selecting PICTURE SIZE in the SETUP menu.

NOTICE OF POSSIBLE ADVERSE
EFFECTS ON TV PICTURE DISPLAY
Avoid displaying stationary images on your
TV screen for extended periods of time.
Fixed (non-moving) patterns or images
(including but not limited to PIP/POP
windows, closed captions, video game
patterns, TV station logos, stock tickers,
websites, and special formats that do not use
the entire screen) can become permanently
ingrained in the cathode ray tube(s) of the TV
and cause subtle but permanent ghost
images. This type of damage is NOT
COVERED BY YOUR WARRANTY.
