The display will automatically become enlarged (depending
on the picture source), allowing you to view the picture at its
maximum size.
Notes:
• Panasonic Auto mode is designed to automatically adjust the
aspect ratio to handle a mix of 16:9 and 4:3 program material.
Certain 4:3 program material, such as stock market data
screens, may occasionally cause the image size to change
unexpectedly. When viewing such programs, it is recommended
that the ASPECT be set to 4:3.
• If adjusting the Picture V-Pos/V-Size in Panasonic Auto with
16:9 mode, the adjustment is not memorized. When exiting the
mode, the screen will return to a former adjustment.
