Some size modes are not available for certain types of input signals. [DEFAULT] cannot be selected for video signal, Y/C signal (NTSC), or 

RGB (480i, 480p) signal.

If an aspect ratio which is different from the aspect ratio for the input signals is selected, the images will appear differently from the originals. 

Be careful of this when selecting the aspect ratio.

If using the projector in places such as cafes or hotels to display programs for a commercial purpose or for public presentation, note that 

adjusting the aspect ratio or using the zoom function to change the screen images may be an infringement of the rights of the original 

copyright owner for that program under copyright protection laws. Take care when using a function of the projector such as the aspect ratio 

adjustment and zoom function.
