front panel, highlight ASPECT RATIO and press ENTER. The aspect ratio menu will then appear with the four
choices; highlight the desired aspect ratio with the up or down buttons and press ENTER. Otherwise, you may
select an aspect ratio by pressing either the up or down arrow buttons (on the remote or front panel) when no
menus are on-screen, or by pressing one of the direct access buttons on the remote control. The aspect ratio setting
is saved for each input and resolution separately.
