Wide function may not work properly. In this case,
set the Wide Screen Mode manually.

Wide Screen Mode appears.
Pressing the WIDE MODE button once lets the TV
select the best Wide Screen Mode, and the selected
Wide Screen Mode appears.* Each time you press
the button, Wide Screen Mode changes as follows.
For details on Wide Screen Mode, see page 29.
* When “Auto Wide” in the (Screen Control) menu is set to
“Mode2,” and the “4:3 Default” is set to “Normal” (page 31),
the picture remains 4:3 aspect ratio (“Normal”).

Set “Auto Wide” to “Off” when changing the Wide Screen
Mode manually (See page 31).

Changing the Wide Setup
Auto Wide setting has two options: “Mode1” and
“Mode2.”
Auto Wide: “Mode1”
Normal broadcast (4:3 aspect ratio) transmits the
control signal together with the picture signal. Some
video equipment, such as camcorders, transmit the
control signal*
1 as well. In “Mode1,” the TV detects
the control signal and displays the picture with its
original aspect ratio. Note that black bands may
appear near the frame, or part of the picture may not
appear, if you select the Wide Screen Mode
manually while watching the picture without the
control signal.
Auto Wide: “Mode2”
In “Mode2,” the TV selects the best Wide Screen
Mode automatically to fit the wide screen, regardless
of the control signal.
The factory setting of this TV is:
“Auto Wide” is set to “Mode2,” and “4:3 Default” is set to
“Widezoom.”
* 1 Control signal which returns the picture to its original aspect
ratio. The following include the control signal.
– Pictures from camcorder with specified aspect ratio
– Broadcasts with the 4:3 aspect ratio signal
