ASPECT
NOTE:
• WIDE MODE in OPTION menu should be ON when 
projecting WIDE signals.
• If you project an image with an unmatched aspect ratio, 
the image may distort or some portions may be 
cropped. Select an aspect ratio which preserves the 
intention of the image creator.
• The order of ASPECT types is defined not only by the 
input method but also by the input signals. See “List of 
compatible signals” on page 47.
• If you project a copyrighted image enlarged or distorted 
by using ASPECT function in commercial use in a 
public place, such as a restaurant or hotel, you might 
infringe on the copyright of the creator which is 
protected by copyright law.
