The display will automatically become enlarged (depending on the 

picture source), allowing you to view the picture at its maximum 

size.

• 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.

• Panasonic AUTO can not be selected while TY-FB9BD (optional 

BNC Dual Video Terminal Board) is installed.
