CHANGING THE SCREEN ASPECT RATIO
The TV can display images in four dierent modes: Normal,
Panoramic, Wide, and Zoom. Each mode displays the picture
dierently.
Some programs have black bars on the top or sides of the picture
so that the picture keeps its original shape. Examples include
wide-screen movies and older television programs.
To change the screen aspect ratio:
1. Press the Wide button on the
remote.
2. Use the Arrow buttons to
highlight the aspect ratio you
wish to view and press OK.
• Normal preserves the content’s original aspect ratio and
size.
• Panoramic stretches a 4:3 aspect ratio picture to the left
and right edges of the screen. The center of the image is
not stretched, but the sides of the image are extremely
stretched. If you are watching widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1)
content with black bars on the top and bottom, the black
bars will still appear on the top and bottom of the display
image.
• Wide stretches a 4:3 aspect ratio picture to the edges of
the screen. Since the picture is being stretched, the display
image may appear distorted—gures appear short and fat.
If the program is already formatted for widescreen viewing
(1.85:1 or 2.35:1), then black bars will appear on the top
and bottom of the display image.
• Zoom expands images evenly in all directions (33% taller
and 33% wider) with black bars to t the screen. A 720p
image will ll a 1080p screen.
Note: Aspect ratio settings may vary by Input source.

Tip: The aspect ratio cannot be changed for Ultra HD
content or HDR content.
