      If your Panasonic Camcorder is correctly connected to a TV but images cannot be seen, please read the operating instructions of your TV and select the channel that matches the input used for the connection. If the images are squeezed horizontally, change the [TV ASPECT] setting to match the aspect ratio of the TV. Also, change the setting of the unit depending on the cable connecting to the TV.
