Making Basic Adjustments

In many cases, video signals are automatically resized to 
fit on your screen when 

Auto

 is selected as the Aspect 

setting. You may need to change the size of the image 
(or aspect ratio) for certain image types by pressing the 

Aspect

 button on the remote control.

Select one of these settings:

■ Normal

 for standard TV broadcasts, computer 

images, or images with a 4:3 aspect ratio.

■ Full

 for images recorded in 16:9 (wide-screen) format and squeeze mode.

■ Zoom

 for letterbox images.

■ Wide 

for expanding a 4:3 image to 16:9 so it fills the whole screen. This stretches only 

the right and left sides of the image; the central part is unchanged.

Note: When displaying 720p, 1080i, or 1080p signals through the HDMI or Component video port, 
the aspect ratio is automatically selected and you cannot change it.

If you display a 4:3 image using the Zoom setting, the top and bottom will be cut off. You can use 
the Zoom Caption Pos. option and other settings to resize and reposition the image. For details, 
see page 53.

For details on how the projector resizes the picture when you choose an Aspect setting, see 
page 81.
