Notes
• You can adjust the vertical position of the picture with
“V Position” in the INPUT SETTING menu when
“Zoom” or “Subtitle” is selected, or when “Full
Through” or “Normal Through” is selected for video
(50Hz) or progressive component (50p) input signal.
• You can adjust the position of the subtitles with “Title
Area” in the INPUT SETTING menu only when
“Subtitle” is selected.
• If “Full Through” or “Normal Through” is selected when
a video (50 Hz) or progressive video (50p) signal is
input, the picture may not be completely displayed on
the screen due to the number of dots of the LCD panel.
Notes on selecting the wide screen mode
• Select the wide screen mode taking into account
that changing the aspect ratio of the original picture
will provide a different look from that of the
original image.
• Note that if the projector is used for profit or for
public viewing, modifying the original picture by
switching to the wide mode may constitute an
infringement of the rights of authors or producers,
which are legally protected.
