ASPECT CONTROLS

The receiver will allow you to enjoy viewing the picture at its maximum size, including widescreen cinema format pictures.
Press the ASPECT button to move through the six aspect options: Panasonic Auto, 4:3, Zoom, S-Zoom, 16:9 and Just

Panasonic Auto

Some broadcasts are transmitted together with a wide screen identification signal (WSS). If the receiver receives this signal then it will automatically switch to wide screen 16:9 mode, maximum display. The automatic widescreen switching depends upon reception conditions and the strength of the signal. If the signal is poor and therefore the WSS is weak then it is possible that the picture may not expand to full size and that the receiver will display black areas around the edges. If the original source signal was a standard 4:3 aspect ratio then you might prefer to view it in its original size; the red and green keys that appear will allow you to choose between viewing at standard 4:3 size or expanded in Just mode.
4:3 will display a 4:3 picture at its standard 4:3 size and can be selected if you wish to view in this format. Note: After setting this mode, turn the power off and back on again to activate the Just mode setting.
Zoom mode magnifies the central section of the picture. The picture can be moved and enlarged vertically using the colored keys. The former adjustment is useful for viewing any sub-titles which may appear outside the picture.
The on screen selector keys that appear for some aspect functions will clear after a few seconds. If you subsequently wish to select an operation then press the Aspect key once more for the keys to reappear. The widescreeen aspect ratios of different films and programmes can vary. If these are wider than a standard 16:9 aspect picture then a black band may be visible at the top and bottom of the screen. If, in Panasonic Auto mode, you experience problems with the screen display size when playing back widescreen format recordings from your VCR then it is possible that the tracking control of your VCR requires adjustment (your VCR instruction book will contain adjustment details).

Blue key has been pressed to move picture upwards

S-Zoom

S-Zoom allows increased magnification and the ability to move the picture horizontally and vertically.
Increased magnification with S-Zoom
16:9 will display the picture at its maximum size but with slight elongation.
Just mode will display a 4:3 picture at maximum size but with aspect correction applied to the centre of the screen so that elongation is only apparent at the left and right edges of the screen. The size of the picture will depend on the original signal.

Volume
The Volume adjustment sets the overall output volume. Note:
At the time of shipment from the factory, the volume is set to the maximum level. The Wide Plasma Display also has a volume setting control, so the maximum volume is determined by the volume control settings at both the receiver and the Wide Plasma Display.
Bass adjustment will emphasise the lower, deeper frequencies and can be increased or decreased. Treble adjustment will emphasise the sharper, higher frequencies and can be increased or decreased.

Treble

Balance
Balance affects the levels of sound between the left and right speakers. Adjustment can be made so that the level from the speakers will suit your listening position.
The headphone volume can be adjusted independently of the receivers AUDIO OUT terminals so that everyone can enjoy listening at their own comfort level.
The Al setting automatically analyses the incoming sound signal and processes it to give lower noise and optimum tone for the programme material. MPX will usually be set to Stereo to provide the best reproduction, however if reception deteriorates or if the service is not available than it is advisable to switch to Mono. Mono (M1) and (M2) can also be selected if signals are being transmitted. Bass and Treble are set to the optimum levels for music or speech.
