The display will automatically become enlarged (depending on the
picture source), allowing you to view the picture at its maximum size.
Notes:
• 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 NORMAL.
• If adjusting the PICTURE V-POS/V-SIZE in Panasonic AUTO with FULL
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 BNC Dual Video Terminal
Board (TY-FB9BD) is installed.

When selecting an input slot that attaches BNC Dual Video Terminal

Do not allow the picture to be displayed in NORMAL mode for an extended period, as this can cause a permanent
image retention to remain on the Plasma Display Panel.
