Auto Aspect

The optimum size and aspect can be chosen automatically, and you can enjoy finer images. (p. 21)

Aspect Control Signal

[WIDE] will appear in the top left of the screen if a Widescreen signal (WSS) or a Control signal through SCART / HDMI terminal is found.

The aspect will switch to the appropriate 16:9 or 14:9 widescreen ratio.

This function will work in any aspect mode.

Auto mode

Auto mode determines the best aspect ratio to fill the screen. It does this using a four step process (WSS, Control signal through SCART / HDMI terminal, Letterbox detection or Justify to fill the screen) to determine.

This process may take several minutes, depending on the darkness of the image.

Letterbox detection :

If black bands at the top and bottom of the screen are detected, Auto mode chooses the best ratio and expands the image to fill the screen.

If no aspect signals are detected, Auto mode enhances the image for optimum viewing pleasure.

Note

• The ratio varies depending on the programme, etc. If the ratio is out of the standard 16:9, black bands at the top and bottom of the screen may appear.
• If the screen size looks unusual when a widescreen-recorded programme is played back on a VCR, adjust the tracking of the VCR. Read the manual of the VCR.

Before requesting service or assistance, please follow these simple guides to resolve the problem. If the problem still persists, please contact your local Panasonic dealer for assistance.

Block noise, frozen or disappearing image occurs in DVB mode / White spots or shadow image (ghosting) occurs in Analogue mode / Some channels cannot be tuned

• Check the position, direction and connection of the aerial.
• Check [Signal Condition] (p. 42). If [Signal Quality] is displayed in red, the DVB signal is weak.
• Weather conditions will affect signal reception (heavy rain, snow, etc.), in particular in poor reception areas. Even during good weather, the high pressure can cause poor reception of some channels.
• Due to the digital reception technologies involved, quality of the digital signals may be relatively low in some cases, despite good reception of analogue channels.
• Turn the TV off with the Mains power On / Off switch, and then on again.
• If problem persists, consult your local dealer or service provider for the availability of services.

No programmes shown on TV Guide

• Check the digital transmitter.
• Adjust the direction of the aerial to another transmitter installed nearby.
• Check the analogue broadcast. If the image quality is poor, check the aerial and consult your local dealer.
